Bathroom options

[hopeishere]

We have a rental and are redoing the bathroom because of leak. Would you prefer a really big shower or a bath with a shower over it? Not enough room for a separate bath and shower.

thanks!

A bath with a shower over it every time

A standalone shower

Ok. 50/50 so far!

Bath with shower, I don’t have a bath often but would hate to not have the option and I prefer shower over bath to cubicles.

Shower over bath.

Bath with shower. We had a huge shower in our old home and the half that didn’t get wet just got dusty. It was wasted space.

Most families will want a bath.

Walk in shower.

If you want to rent to families with children, you'll need a bath. It's much easier to bathe small children.

It’s probably not a rental for families. More “young professionals”.

I like the baths with the square end for a shower overhead and proper screen.

I like the square end and screen but much prefer the angles shower on the wall to the overhead type, especially don’t like those waterfall ones.

I think for young professionals a decent-sized walk-in shower.

Big shower.

This is one of those things you'll never get any consensus on. The people who want baths really want them (which is fair enough).

Rental for young professionals, definitely a walk in shower.

In our house ( it is not a rental ) we did our bathroom about two years ago and put in both
At the beginning I was having more baths than showers , but now reverted back to showering .
As you say its more suitable for singles , couples rather than families , I'd say a shower is more convenient & what most people go for .

Big shower. We have a double size shower and a bath in our ensuite. I can't remember the bath ever being used.

If it’s big enough for a good size shower then I would go for a shower.

Big shower.
I can't remember the last time anyone in our house had a bath.

Always better to have the choice so shower over bath

I bought a house last year that I'd been renting for a year.

It's a 4/5 bed house that only had 2 shower rooms. Before the ink had dried I'd employed builders to get a bathroom renovation.

I now have one shower room and a larger bathroom with a beautiful shower over the bath. Much more suited to family life if I want to sell too.

Your changes sound absolutely right for your large house.

The rental in question is not a family home, hence some of us would opt for a decent walk-in shower for young professionals.
