Need your words of advice - major rethink of bathroom remodel
Comments (6)Thanks for the replies. Haha, lukki  maybe my children are more high-maintenance than others (although I think theyÂre probably normal). I donÂt know how *anyone* does remodeling with small children. I canÂt imagine trying to do projects that require a great deal of concentration/attention while also having my 3 yr old and 8 month old need to eat / need diaper changes / want to color / misbehave/etc. I can barely paint a room while caring for the kids! The budget is more for reasons of not overimproving, rather than a matter of not having the money. We have enough money now to do almost whatever we want to do. But IÂve thought more about it and I think a bigger shower is something that, if we do it, will need to be for ourselves rather than for resale. I do appreciate the points you both bring up and we will think about this more. IÂd still love to hear from others!...See MoreBathroom Reveal, Thanks to the Bathroom and Remodel Forums!X-Post
Comments (6)Lovely! I like the classic white tile and porcelain and how you used furniture pieces in the bathroom. I love that the storage at the end of the tub has pull-outs that can be reached from the toilet. Your custom sink and backsplash and counter are unique and beautiful. Yours may be the first bathroom sink I have seen in which a small or medium dog could be washed! That is a good thing! I showed your pictures to my DH because I am thinking of classic tiled walls with a chair rail for when we redo our bath in a couple of years. He liked it! I was expecting him to say, "too old fashioned." He did not, he said it looked nice. From him, nice is a compliment. He even liked your rows of listello. I was just at the Tile Shop's site the other day looking at the Hampton tiles because someone was selling some on Craigslist. I am hoping to do as you did and get what I can cheaper there, and fill in the rest from the store. I can see that you worked very hard to secure all of your materials - and then cut the floor tiles to size and culled the Hampton tiles, too! You succeeded very well in getting the look you wanted while saving money along the way. Congratulations, and thank you for the pictures and great detail and supply list....See MorePlease Help - back to back bathroom layout / remodel
Comments (19)You want to stare in an open door and see a TOILET first? The door will always be closed? No........it wont : ) Yes, sorry. So simple! Cut the linen width to 18. Cut the vanity to 66 inches, and shower to 30 inches width. You will freak when I say that, but. When you shower in a TUB shower, you are standing in a width of about 21 inches! So the 30 is actually quite decent. Otherwise? Eliminate the linen next to vanity, and put a low storage beneath the window, left of entry door 30 wide and 18 deep.. That would keep the vanity size at 72, and shower width as well. That's the best, actually. The master door entry needs to move in any scenario....See MoreHelp with bathroom/closet layout in remodel
Comments (12)@anj_p this is a remodel and im trying not to go too crazy otherwise i love your idea of flipping the master/kids wings! good point on toilet - existing walls are all plaster and incredibly soundproof but this new one wont be so going to make sure to raise that question! im torn on reach in closet - its what they have now, but it feels like being able to shut a door would be nice? were also used to using dressers so maybe a nice furniture piece could be a ckmpromise? going to think about that! totally agree on master bath and Im frustrated our architect hasnt suggested it. the window makes a large shower there awkward but we dont hse a tub! thanks for taking the time tk look and give advice!...See Morekandrewspa
