Bathroom
Rather tragically, our intrepid cameraman has once again managed to
make a mess of things. This time, he managed not to get any
before pictures and we also apologise for the after pictures which
it appears he took in the fog. Time for another beating...
Despite being a large property, there was only one actual bathroom
and it was a small one at that.
Our customer had decided that they would like to combine the space
of the bathroom along with the small bedroom next door, removing the
dividing wall to give them the space to put in a large shower and
separate bath with plenty of space for free-standing furniture
later.
Although there are no before pictures, the dividing wall was
in-between the two windows with the old doorway directly opposite
the WC. The size of this room and feeling of space is
in-describable and we and our customer are really pleased with the room.
Whilst on-site we also undertook and coordinated other works
including replacement of the ageing central heating system with a
brand new Alpha CD50 high-flow rate combination boiler.
Following removal of the old boiler we made good to the walls,
ceiling and flooring.
AWI helped design and installed this bathroom.
From start to finish the job included:
- Removal of the existing suite, wall & floor
covering in both rooms
- Demolition of the none-supporting dividing wall
- Framing, insulating and boarding up of the old
bathroom doorway including plastering the outside wall ready to
receive decoration
- Under-boarding of the whole ceiling and
plastering ready to receive decoration
- Two coats of paint applied to the ceiling
- Installation of 10 spotlights, split into 2 banks
- Installation of extractor fan switched seperately
and ducted outside
- Re-plumbing to support the new layout
- Walls fully tiled (ceramic tiles) with mosaic
dividers in the shower area
- Floor fully tiled (porcelain tiles)
- Installation of the new bathroom suite including
shower enclosure thermostatic shower, WC, wall
hung
basin with semi-pedestal, bath and 2 chrome towel rails
