LA3222 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Anyone got any bright ideas on how to wrestle a 160kg bath into the house between me and the wench? No level threshold so have to hoof it up and down over the damn doorstep, then pish the damn thing into the house! This is going to be a worse task than trying to lift and fit an 80kg velux 3m into the air between us - missus only weighs 50kg so as you can imagine, it was a bitch....and we had two of em! So, suggestions on the bath...roll it in somehow? Wary of damaging it - any suggestions are welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radian Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 110mm underground drainage pipes make excellent rollers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProDave Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Get all your mates around and grease their palms. 4 good strong blokes should be able to lift that. You want it to arrive un damaged. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Jones Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 can you take the glass unit out of a window to pass it through ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyT Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 It’s going to end badly if you try and do it with just you and the missus. time to call in reinforcements for Your own health and the finish of the bath, walls etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadnaught Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Buy some casters and build a wheeled dolly? Use timber levers to get it over the threshold? Does it need to go up stairs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
