Wall Panels for a Bath->Shower swap later
Ferdinand posted a topic in Bathrooms, Ensuites & Wetrooms
Note these are Grant Westfield multipanels not AB Multipanels - AB Building Products are a large distributor in the South West. See this post. I am planning to use the AB Multipanels to line my bath alcove in the Little Brown Bungalow. So far, so good. However, I may want to adapt it to be a shower in say 10 years, and that the price of the panels is quite high at £145 or so for an 8x4 in the standard finishes before you even start getting into trims and fixings. I only need 3 but that will be perhaps 1/3 of the cost of the (reasonably posh) bathroom. Is there any reason why I cannot fit full height uncut panels such that later on the bath can simply be hoicked out and a suitably sized shower installed - eg if a tenant can no longer climb into the bath? Considerations are: Sealing the bath to the panels in a way which is suitable, and can be removed later. Given that both are rigid this should be possible. Installing the shower over the bath now in a way that will not require changes later. Detailing the bottom edge of the panels - probably involving having them a suitable distance off the floor now to allow for a shower tray later. Comments are welcome. Ferdinand
