Show me your (small) bathrooms

[saymynames]

Looking at getting the bathroom totally re-done. I'd love a shower cubicle but DH insists on keeping the bathtub. Keen to see if there's a way to fit both in.
Are corner baths dated?

You can see there is a shower screen and big, square shower head at the other end of bath

*can't see

What's wrong with an over-bath shower?
This is what I have at the moment with a screen but the water goes everywhere and DH hates shower curtains 🙄

Some lovely ideas there. Filing it away! thanks.

What about a P shaped or L shaped bath so you get the extra room to shower but still have the option of a bath? You can even get them with sliding bath screens so you can be enclosed when you shower to reduce water splashing everywhere.

Oh I didn't know!

@smallgoon - that is NOT a small bathroom Our bathroom is 6ft long and 5ft wide. In a 4 bed house, and is the only bathroom. We do however have separate loos.

Smallgoon I love your bathroom!

@feliciabirthgiver *were similar

Thinking about saleability I would always keep a bath as I expect it is what young families prefer.

@Yesyoudoknowme They're both pano pics (first taken by estate agent) so make the rooms look larger that they are! Trust me, the bathroom is small.

I'm currently rejigging a bathroom 1400mm x 2635mm, no room to swing a cat. I've been doing a life sized floor plan with sheets of newspaper folded to size. The bath is going as the door can't open properly ATM. I can squeeze in a shower 1400 x 700 but it's narrower than I'd like.

#timesdone - can you fit a sliding/pocket door to give you more room? I've had a similar problem and fitted a sliding door outside the room to gain useable floor space.

Just have an over bath shower?

If you're thinking about selling in the next few years it might be worth keeping a bath - I would never buy a house without a bath (unless I knocked enough 1000's off the price to re-do it) and I think many others would feel the same. If you're in it for the long-haul, you could try and persuade OH to forego the bath? I think it's a bit small for a separate shower and bath TBH but what about a p-shaped bath?

Just about to buy a house with two small bathrooms rather than one big one. Family bathroom is 170x230 so very small! Have to keep the bath as DD is very fond of them, so going for an over bath shower with a screen door and quite minimal white styling to keep it open and light.

Don't get rid of the bath if you plan on selling it in the short or medium term. Lots of buyers are very put off houses with no baths. I agree with the PP that I'd knock money off any offer I made on a property with no bath to allow me to install one.
