Tiled Bathroom in the attic

Home Interiors have just completed a bathroom situated in the attic, this is an old barn conversion where the roof height could not be lifted due to council restrictions, and it might affect the other two homes within the 3 mile radius the houses sit.

 

Makes me laugh

 

Anyway it just shows what can be achieved in the most awkward pitch of a roof with some careful planning.

 

Even though this main bathroom would technically be an en~suite as the room is only accessible via the master bedroom.

 

The attic room was a good size thus allowing for a large bath to be installed along with a shower tray directly in front of two gable end low level windows.

 

The bathroom also has a large basin sitting in a modern base unit and a long range of low level cupboards. 

 

 the centre unit holding the WC and cistern.

The Tiling to the floor was already complete before we at Home Interiors were involved in this project; I only make this point due to some lippage in parts of the floor tiling.

 

Home Interiors were only contracted to install the bumpy white wall tiles and much chrome tile trim.

 

Of course we always prefer the complete installation as often when you arrive to fix tiles only, you end up removing many items that the customer has already paid to have fitted, for instance in this bathroom the chrome towel rail had to be taken down pipe work adjusted and re fitted once tiles were fixed, grouted and polished.

 

Therefore the customer is paying twice for the same job; the same went for the electrical work, wall lights and extractor fan.

 

The shower head, mixer and control panel had to be removed to fix the tiles, again paying out twice for the same job.

 

However the installation was one of our interesting jobs with much thought required to the window/shower wall where an interesting amount of setting out and precession was required with the boxing in and two different height windows to contend with.

 

Its not often that 9 lengths of tile trim be required on just one wall of ceramic tiling.

 

Cutting tiles to the internal ceiling pitch looks straight forward enough and would be if only the building was not so old and the roof timbers so distorted that the plaster ceiling leading to the pitch was so wavy that every cut had to be scribed to follow the contour of the slop.

 

An interesting job no matter what

 

One more very happy client, what more could Home Interiors want.

bathroom conversion

Are you thinking of a bathroom conversion?

 

Look no further

 

This property in the west midlands is undertaking to gain a new bathroom by converting a bedroom and first floor cloakroom into a stunning new bathroom.

 

The owners were given a 2 week program of works by Home Interiors.

 

The project has started with the removal of all skirting boards and wall paper from the old bedroom.

The internal wall separating the bedroom and cloakroom was removed along with all ceramic tiles, WC & cistern and the small hand washing basin.

 

Water supplies feeding old sanitary ware terminated and all new services installed for bath, basin, enclosed cistern and floor level shower base.

 

Of course this new bathroom will have a very modern look with a two tier step leading to the bath all tiled using a natural slate material in 600mm x 300mm.

 

The wall hung WC and basin unit mean the tiled floor with under floor can be seen throughout and easily cleaned.

 

Home Interiors are currently one week into the project so look out as the story develops.

 

Visit again in a few days to read more and see the new pictures.

Well time for more information and pictures on this bathroom conversion.

 

End of week one and as you can see the wall is now down first fix plumbing all in place

 

All waste pipe work was installed under the floor level and of course all solvent welded to ensure no future leaks

 

Concealed cistern and support framework is now installed and the WC is now in operation.

600mm x 300mm Slate was fixed to a number of walls using cement based adhesive about 30 square meters with a further 17 meters to fix during week two.

 

What I really like about full bathroom fitting like this is you will not see a single inch of pipe work either waste or water supply once complete however there has gone some 36 meters of pipe and over 100 fittings to make this bathroom work

So as a reminder the old WC cloakroom has developed from this

To this

Upon viewing the next pictures you will see the above doorway leading to the old WC gone, however the old bedroom door will become the bathroom entrance.

The new bath will now be directly across the wall facing the door where the old bedroom radiator was possitioned

I look forward to adding the pictures of the bathroom complete later next week, hope you can re visit Tiling News to see the finished project.
