Help with Master Bath Renovation/Design
Comments (3)I have seen pictures of showers with windows, so it is possible, although that will depend on your preference for privacy/what is outside and getting a really good window, installed very well. I think a lot of people are leary of leaks or in areas where privacy is a concern, so you don't see that many. Could you replace the tub with freestanding, take out the dividing wall and put a 4'x5' shower where the existing shower/closet are? Or keep tub location (switch to freestanding), put shower where toilet is now and toilet where shower/closet it now (turned 90 degrees so tank is next to bottom wall)...See MorePlease help: 16 x 11 Master Bath + Closet Layout
Comments (7)Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate the advice on using closet doors to keep out moisture. Probably would use pocket doors for 1 and 2, Bi-fold or sliding for 4, and Standard doors for 3 and 5. I like to use a pocket door where I can but realize there are drawbacks... e.g., you can't put electrical, plumbing or hang pictures on the wall hiding the door. This will be a major remodel. #4 is close to the current layout but the shower and toilet are together in a very small compartment and the sinks back up against the bedroom wall. We currently have two narrow doorways (no doors) for entry from the bedroom. If anyone is still reading... for option #2, would it seem odd to walk through the bathroom to get to closet? I could split the sinks apart and put the doorway in the middle, creating a hallway of sorts to closet. Alternatively, I could do the exact same bathroom along the back wall and put the closet in the front, but would lose the long, uninterrupted wall for closet rod. I favor #2 and #3 and I think the plumbing cost for number #2 would be less because everything is in one straight shot across an interior wall....See MoreMaster Bath & Closets help please
Comments (5)kirk: The plumbing can go in the ICF wall. The issue is having an access to the shower guts in case there is a leak or need for changing something out in the future. Andi: I notice that your shower is tempered glass between the tub and shower. It looks like your plumbing is also in that same wall. What is your plumbing? Or is that a wall between them? I'd like glass between mine. Will you be able to open your windows?...See MoreHelp with Master/Closet/Bath/2nd Bath/Laundry Layout
Comments (8)Our budget right now is $30k. I am not quite sure how much that’ll get me. I have never undertaken anything like this. This will absolutely be something we take on in stages. This space is what we’d like to tackle first and is the largest. In our kitchen at some point we will replace countertops and in our other bathroom we will swap out the toilet, tub and vanity. Luckily the rest of the house is functional for us. I lack the vision and knowledge that a lot of people on here have of being able to see a functional layout in disaster zones lol. My intuition tells me all these spaces can somehow be rearranged to give us what we need. I’m completely wrong, please help. Im also completely fine and understand if it’s impossible, financially or practically to have it all. I do have a consultation with a designer scheduled for this week (so excited), and I’m praying that she’ll have time to take us on as clients but I got excited and wanted to ask the Houzz community first. Thank you !!...See Moreroarah
