Dan_the_man Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Hi folks I would appreciate peoples thoughts on my upstairs bathroom layout. I will not be having bath taps but instead will buy a bath overflow filler. The bath will be 1700mm long 750mm wide. If I am laying in the bath facing the sink should I place the overflow filler on the opposite side? I have a cavity wall to allow me to fit the bath in and to make the vanity unit longer. I am restricted in the depth of the wall unit where the toilet is hung as I do not want to make the tall bathroom window narrower. Should I remove the cavity wall and make the bath 100mm longer and make up the gap from the stud wall on the opposite side even if it means I have to make the tall window 30mm narrower? What are peoples thoughts on my vanity unit? The sink pipe work would be hidden behind a sliding door on the left hand side. Directly next to have is open storage with a glass shelf. The issue I have is I need to find a sink with an off centre plug hole are these easy enough to find? The toilet shelf will be 790mm high so this means I will need a small wall hung frame. This frame would be short enough I assume. https://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/bauhaus-low-height-wall-hung-wc-support-frame?gclid=CjwKCAjwi_b3BRAGEiwAemPNU0knLBdTR9e53d9TeZRqZfqE84B5GL_DkzAsnrJ550v2TrFlzjDZfBoCTHgQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Ignore the shower on this image as I will probably opt for an inbuilt shower to keep it clean. Should I use the extra space to stick the shower niche behind the shower instead of building an extra window for the shower niche? I could put the shower controls next to the window. How the vanity unit interacts with the bath is crucial. I have tried my best to make it so that water can't touch the vanity unit but maybe tiles laid on wood looks messy? Many thanks for your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozza Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Have you considered swapping shower and bath. You have a natural recess there for a big shower. Most people shower more than they bath. I think this would make your bathroom feel bigger as obviously a bath is low level. if you extend your cavity wall this would create a natural recess for your vanity unit. Would be much more neater and streamlined which appears to be the look you’re after. Also consider a shower neuk in your cavity wall. Have shower controls at entry point. have attached what I mean. contact a bathroom supplier they’ll help you do a design as part of a quote.
