Coming October we are starting with the reno of the bathroom in our caravan. We are excited, nervous and impatient to start.
We want to build a...*drumroll please*.......walk in shower. Tadáááá! Everyone is telling us it can't be done. A normall plastic box with sliding door around it yes but not a fullfledged walk in shower.
We do not see the difference really, wether you install a ready made shower in a room or make a new room and create a shower. Just an idea of how the original bathroom looks.
It's very small, it's salmon pink, it's plastic and it's really old. Behind the glass door there is this wannabee bathtub enclosed in plastic walls with a skylight in the roof. This thing will come down, demolished, destroyed and the skylight will be closed.
You see, the space of the bathtub comes into the bedroom. Totally weird.
So what we will do is remove the shower/bathtub and create a new wall. The new toilet will be a quarter-turned and placed against the new
wall. Next to the toilet the washbassin will be placed.
It will be a wooden shelf with a white bassin on it.
There use to be a spare bedroom wich the former owners took out so we are going to use part of that to install our new and improved bathroom.
It's a bit outlined on the floor. The door to the bathroom is going to be relocated aswell. This project is our first big thing and we have help from a plumber, who will do the pipes and all, a tiler will do our beautifull tiling and some construction workers are there for advice. My brother in law is an electrician so we are set! We are sooooo excited about this.
When all goes well we will have such a luxuriance bathroom in our caravan, it's ridiculous! But this is for our old age, to enjoy when we retire and to spend at least 7 months every year there. And when we retire also all the weekends and winterholidays in the remaining months.
I will keep you guys posted.
