How Far Should Faucet Go Into Sink
Comments (4)I almost went with the set EngineerChic used, partly because the faucet was a good size, and partly because I wanted the shower hardware for that series. Then when the shower stuff didn't work, I ended up with Price Pfister Pasadena sink and shower trim. It's about 6x6 and is very comfortable to use to wash your hands. I HATE the sinks where the faucet is so close you can't move your hands. While our yet-to-be-remodeled half bath has about a 5.5 in projection out over the sink, it has very little height so it is not as functional for me. If you are really interested, I can post a pic with the water on this weekend. Pasadena wideset:...See MoreHow far to bring counter over Shaw's sink?
Comments (10)I had a small reveal like Nidnay in my last house (positive reveal). Over a decade..no water problems.

Comments (20)Not a silly question. When you have water forcefully hitting the inclined side of the tub high enough up, though most of it will splash downwards, some of it goes sideways, and some of it -- counterintuitively -- splashes back upwards from where it strikes the side and you can actually have a small puddle start to form on the floor in this area from water spray bouncing up and escaping this way. It the water doesn't hit the side of the tub, but only the bottom of the tub, it doesn't bounce high enough to do this....See MoreHow far does patio extend ? Past french doors?
Comments (12)I think that using doors will be functionally better and the approach to them will be better ---- and they'll look better -- when the paving extends wider than the door set itself. Could be a foot, 18", or 2' .... just depends on the overall effect & needs. Fighting with that though is that you'll probably want to have some plantings flanking the door, at the foundation planting area. So these things will need to balance well with the overall picture. You should be considering the foundation planting of the house (whatever is to exist) right along with placing the paving....See Morejsweenc
