Shower over bath? Your opinion required
Comments (14)Hi Nic, I've been stuck with shower-over-baths in a few rentals and they can be slippery death traps! They also get grotty in summer with bare feet, post beach showers etc which limits usage as a bath anyway. If your kids are old enough I'd go for just a nice big shower area or a separate shower with a compact freestanding bath if you can fit one. If your kids are little or the above won't work for you here's some tips to make a shower over bath safer and easy to use: - Pick a bath with an absolutely flat bottom and anti slip texture at the shower end (those suction anti-slip mats are worse than useless). - Position the shower screen so that you can step straight onto the anti slip part. - Make sure the bath edge is low enough for the kids to enter end exit easily. - A hand held shower head that can move up and down would be a nice addition. Hope that helps! Good luck with the new bathroom :)...See MoreWould you rather a freestanding or built-in bath?
Comments (7)I can't help but wonder how a freestanding bath looks after a year or two of trying to clean behind and under them. Also we have large trees and a lot of spiders. They often hang out in the bathroom. Nuff said!...See MoreHelp- New build bath, bigger shower/double or single vanity
Comments (2)I have to ask, do you really need that bath when you have such a tight space? Unless you have tiny children (and remember that's a temporary situation!,) I suggest a larger walk in shower e.g. 1200 x 800 and heated towel rail on the wall nearer the window so its more convenient. Would definitely keep the double vanity for those busy mornings with storage under and you could add mirror fronted cabinet recessed into the wall above the basins to add more storage. Hope that helps!...See MoreHow much waterproofing is needed for area with shower + bath
Comments (0)Hi there, we are renovating a small bathroom and I love the look of a wet area that includes a shower and a bath (plus it would help us with space). But I'm confused about how much waterproofing work this requires. Is it as much as a full wet room? Especially if we use a tray for the actual shower floor, and the bathtub is inset, and use a full glass wall with sliding door to separate it from the rest of the bathroom. Please see inspiration photo attached. Any advice is incredibly appreciated!...See More
