I have a tiny bathroom & would like to install a small bath. How simple is it to change the arrangement?
l wanna move the toilet and change the position of the sink.l would also
need to put the shower head onto a different wall.l only have a cubicle
just now, but wanna fit a bath onto the back wall.
If you have not carried out DIY plumbing work at all it would
be quite a learning curve. If it is to be DIY I suggest you buy a DIY
manual. They will cover basic plumbing. It is not rocket science as they
say, but you need a thought through plan of work.
It may be helpful to know, if you are short of space, that a corner bath
will fit against a short wall if need be. They come in many different
configurations.Also you can even buy 'shower tubs' which are just 1200 mm long. Standard baths are 1700 mm approximately. When moving the toilet, unless you can get a straightforward pipe run to the old connection, you can get flexible connectors these days which can overcome problems. Look at the Screwfix catalogue. Visit Plumber is Merchants for their catalogues (not brochures), DIY stores, speak to the Plumbing Adviser at B & Q & you will have a better idea of what is available. Happy plumbing!
The biggest consideration is the type of construction you
currently have.
If you have a basement or pier & beam then all of the plumbing can be
changed with minimum of problems other that material & labor.
If you have a concrete slab on grade then the sewer line can become a major item to change since it is buried under the slab & will take more effort to move to the new location. As previously suggested, a plumber or expert re-modeler are the only ones who can really assess ur problem.
Thats not a difficult job, any plumber worth his salt will do
that for you.
it really depends on where all the plumbing is
Best bet is to ask a plumber for expert advice
