May 11, 20251 yr Starting my upstairs shower room and toilet.. Blank canvas. I've already got a layout that works, what I'm asking for are any tips and 'things that went wrong' or 'we wish we had'. Relatively small budget, expecting most of it to go on tiles to improve the 'look'. Maybe I'm just over thinking it, but thought I'd post in case anyone had any advice. It's in a timber frame loft conversion, pozi joists floor and ceiling. one external wall. My plans are roughly. Marine ply floor tanked, tiled. Tanked Tile backer walls, tiled. Centrally placed 4" humidity sensitive extractor, flexi to wall in ceiling. Tall Towel rad next to shower. Soil stack exits top right next to WC.
May 11, 20251 yr Is this a wet room? The sink and shower are very close. Maybe move and rotate the shower:
May 11, 20251 yr Author I'm borderline on going full wet room, it just having a large shower tray with half screen. There was the possibility of having a bench seat built into the wall next to the shower (for hair washing, leg shaving etc..) like the third picture..
May 11, 20251 yr Where the towel rail is in the first plan above would it be possible to put the sink there and perhaps turn the toilet 90 degrees to face the sink rather than face the door? Edited May 11, 20251 yr by Gow

Like this? Feels strange to be seated on the throne and not facing a door.. Its that unnatural?
May 11, 20251 yr I guess you’ve checked but as it’s a ‘room in roof’ bathroom, do you have the ceiling height for the shower head to go anywhere or will a sloping ceiling dictate where the shower head has to go?

It's a 2.4m room.. When I did the loft conversion too the roof off completely and did pozi joists top and bottom.

March 29Mar 29 Author Just an update on this guys. Thanks for all your inputs, but In the end the chief decided the layout and I had to make it work. Featuring bench seat with separate shower valve for hair wash, leg shaving, and pet wash (includes children)
