re installing a bath in wet room
Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 3.08 PM
We are moving home and one of the properties we are interested in has an upstairs family bathroom that has been converted into a wet room with a glass shower cubical and no bath. It is an older style property so we are 100% a bath was removed in order to fit the wet room/shower cubical. How difficult would it be to re install the bath? Would we be able to keep the existing shower, remove the glass cubical and place the bath underneath? Thank you very much for your advice. Kind regards. Rebecca

certainly it can be done , but you will need to cut a hole to access the cold & hot water feeding the wall mixer (if there's any) and another hole in the floor to access the waste pipe connected to the wet room trap....

To keep the room as a wet room, but with the addition of a bath, my advice would be bring the hot & cold supply down the wall from the loft space, using stainless steel tubing to 2 wall mounted taps and if possible cut a 40 mm hole into the wall to take the bath waste. Any cuts into the floor will ruin the water proofing membrane.
