Bathroom, laundry renovation help

Hi there, 

Looking at updating the bathroom, toilet and laundry space from the 80's vibe they currently have.

The space of each room is quite small, wondering what potential options would suit best.

1. Keep each room as separate

2. Combine toilet and Bathroom

3. Combine toilet and Laundry

4. Combine toilet, Bathroom and Laundry

 

It all just feels very tight at the moment, so hoping to make it feel abit bigger. any ideas welcome!

Re: Bathroom, laundry renovation help

Hello @Benji1 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your bathroom renovation.

 

I vote going with option number two and that is combining the toilet and the bathroom. This will make the shower floor area larger and allow you to get a larger vanity. It reduces the number of doors you'll be needing from three to two. I also suggest moving the bathroom door to middle of the wall instead of being in the corner. The extra laundry door can then be placed at the opposite end as a walk through.

 

There is also the other option of removing the bath and turning it into a walk-in shower, this would give you even more floor space making the bathroom roomier. You can then totally maximize the size of the vanity. I also suggest having a look at this guide - How to plan a bathroom renovation by @Adam_W
