please help in guest bath
Comments (4)Your welcome!! Yeah, once you're standing inside, 32 inches is not that big. Also, don't forget if that's if you've used a measurement that's from stud to studs, once the shower is closed in, you'll be loosing 1.5 inches on each side for drywall & tile. Then you're basically left with 29 inches for the interior depth. Most adults who are not physically challenged need more room than that to shower comfortably, add the challenges and well...you get the idea. Converting the hand shower bar into a grab bar is a bonus I wasn't expecting either, but the fasteners are only 20 bucks, a small investment with a hugh return. Here's a couple more tips we did, not sure if you'll be interested, but we got a pantry like the one you have in your drawing. However, instead of paying a fortune for mouldings to hide an empty space, we used the money to upgrade the cabinet so it touches the ceiling. That way we could utilize that space above the cabinet for more storage. Additionally, I can't tell if 3 sides of the shower will be walls, with the door facing the toilet, but if that's the case, you may want to consider having a bipass door instead of the pivoting. We did because we don't have enough room between the shower & the toilet for the door to swing freely. (I believe 32 - 36 inches between the shower & toilet is standard) and also because, I read over and over again that a hugh drawback to the glass euro styled pivoting doors is they don't have any kind of a water guard piece at the bottom (like standard framed doors) so when opened they get water all over the floor.

Comments (27)Continuing the edge combe grey into the bedroom and bath would give you a brighter room and a neutral backdrop to tie the spaces together. Then your art and linens would add the color which you could easily change. You could pick a shade darker off the paint chip if you didnt want the hall, bath and bedroom all the exact same grey. Do use bright or saturated hues in decor if you paint the walls all neutral....See MoreErrant_gw
