| 848606 | 2010-01-15 23:43:00 | and i must say i do like the idea of a wet floor tile one, but not sure if my bathroom is big enough or will suit that........ i have a concrete floor which is good i guess? They suit small bathrooms, cause you aren't trying to jam cubicles etc in them. My mother has one with vinyl on the floor and the curtain round the shower arrangement. I do like the the whole floor tile idea though. I'd do it here if I was going to be doing a bathroom. |

| 848609 | 2010-01-16 04:01:00 | Id go with the wet floor option after seeing that. Wouldnt really matter if there was a little water on the floor because the shower is behind the door. Could you put a vanity against the wall betwen the windows? | hueybot3000 (3646) | ||
| 848610 | 2010-01-16 05:36:00 | The shower is only behind the door when the door is open. I would say there was a big risk of water flooding under the door and into the hallway (or wherever) if you went for a wet floor bathroom. Also you run the risk of someone slipping over when they walk into the bathroom. To keep the budget down, I would keep all the major fixtures in the same place. If you could find a vanity that is wall-hung (doesn't go all the way down to the floor), that will add the illusion of extra floor space. |

Good in theory, but apparently there are still demarcation issues among tradesmen. The plumber and electrician flatly refused to co-operate on my wall-mounted combination washing machine, toilet, dryer and shower. Fortunately a lawyer has agreed to take my case and (for a fee) instruct them as to the laws regarding freedom of association between ablutionary items. |

| 848613 | 2010-01-17 10:54:00 | I stayed in hostels with the wet showers, don't them plus the toilet gets wet too. I don't like getting my feet wet. One could split the room into 2. Swap the vanity and the shower around. So the house appears larger, the toilet can be used when someone else is in the bathroom. Good resale price too but then it also means more bank stares :D When we move to our place it was like that. A very small washing basin stuck to the wall. The width of the toilet room is a door wide (with the washing basin stuck on the wall) - no vanity cupboards. Called washing vessels :confused: |
