Changing around bathroom

So fit a sliding door.

hmm, did cross my mind, I don't think it will go with the rest of the house though (1930's semi)

Have you considered a tapered bath? They're at lot narrower at one end (usually the 'foot' end, as most people are narrow at feet and wider at shoulder).

You could also think about having two half-width doors opening inwards, with a rebate on the meeting edge.

You will be surprised.

Forget places like B&Q.

Find a local company that specialises in doors.

They should be able to find you a door that is suitable to the period of the house.

We recently had a new bathroom fitted. I wanted a single sliding door that consisted almost entirely of non pattern frosted glass.

Although we didn't use them in the end, I found a useful company on the net:

My 1930s semi has a sliding door to the bathroom - it's just the original door hung on a rail, and I don't think it looks particularly out of character.

Thanks, I'll look into it :)

What about the architraving ?

A) Is it possible to move the door to the left or right? Would give you more flexibility.

B) Bath on back Wall, sink to the left on toilet on right would easier, depending on soil pipe.

C) Fit a Macerator to the loo and put where u like, costly though.

D) Get a bathroom fitter round and ask his advice.

Covered with thin strips of wood to bring it out to the new door position, but it's very plain anyway so you don't really notice the difference. If you have ornate architrave mouldings I can see rhat it might look incongruous.

Yeah, they are so it would look out of place imo.

Having looked around b&q that does seem a good option (less hassel)

As it stands with the current suite that wouldn't work, but as the bath is knackered anyway replacing it and having split doors is an idea...

Due to the location of the sink & loo either way the door wouldn't open enough to let a person in. Allthough a smaller sink, tapered bath might help in this respect.

This is my prefered solution depending on the cost of fitting a new suite. tbh it needs a new suite anyway so getting it located right now before we move in makes sense.

eeek! Costly sounds bad !

Allways a good plan, but I like to get other peoples opinions first as I know little to nothing about plumbing. Forewarned is forearmed etc

Before fitting a Macerator, look at the uk.d-i-y FAQ Humour section on S*n*f*o

AFAIK such things are not allowed to be fitted to the only WC in a house, so if you don't have another cludgie you wouldn't be able to use one anyway.

Very good :) Although the expanding foam incident is hilarious.

They could also be arranged to fold to one side.
