Hello,

I have no idea when it comes to this sort of stuff so here goes.

I'm planning on getting a new bathroom this year. The property is about 25 years old and its the original one fitted. Compared to some new build 'family bathrooms' i've seen, mine is relativey roomy for a 2 bed flat i think.

Now I'm more a function over form sort of person so all i need is a toilet, basin and a shower.

Is there anything currently in fashion? or anything a big no no?
My main question would be round the bath/shower set up. Stick with the shower over bath combo? or do away with the bath and fit a more roomy shower cubicle? Maybe even squeeze in a shower cubicle and a bath?

any experts to guide me? thanks smile

Why not put a sketch up with dimensions showing windows/doors and existing fittings?
This is what the current layout is. Shower over bath at the tap/plug end.

How long you planning to stay there?
I could see me moving on in the next few years so I dont want to spend a fortune and I dont want a design that is undesirable to a potential buyer,

OP what drawing package is that?

Is it difficult to move a toilet outflow pipe?

I can see that moving it away from the (presumably) outside wall may be tricky, but moving it further down the existing wall would be OK, no?
i just googled 'bathroom design software' and this is the top hit
