Two new toilets upstairs

[Isleman]

After a year with no toilet upstairs we decided we had enough of it so here we go .

Floor lifted and new pipe installed

While doing a bathroom we thought it would be a good idea to build the wardrobe and the toilet at the same time using a combination of metal studs /wood and plasterboard.

I hope to start the finishing touches over the weekend and hopefully fit the sliding door on the wardrobe . I will post more pictures on Toilet one once is updated.

I have done more progress over the weekend so here are the pictures.


Toilet/wardrobe 1 is now ready for plastering after cutting and sorting the angle beads

Toilet 2


Door is now in place and all plasterboard fitted.
I was just finishing and my wife immediately dumped all my daughter stuff onto the shelves before managing to take a picture LOL

Here is my sink which is 500 x250 . Initially I was looking for a vanity unit but than I changed my mind after I saw some prices
I have created a structure out of metal studs which is pretty solid. I think I will do something rather similar in toilet 1 where the sink will be on the wardrobe wall.

I have done some more progress but unfortunately not as fast as I wanted.
I am running a second project which involves doing the channeling for a full rewire.
Managed to do only the wardrobe and hopefully bathroom will follow soon.

Plastered and sanded

Finally I managed to almost finish the toilet to our bedroom.
I still need to do some touch ups on paint and grout.
In the end I found a cheap vanity unit and then built all the unit next to it to hide the pipes. Quite useful for storage too.
I got marble on the floor which was about £120 sqm at B&Q but they had some broken boxes which I bought for £15
I cut the broken bits and I ended up with a very nice floor which actually looks even better in reality than in photos.
