Blog2025 ≫ What I like about our new bathroom

Bathroom is done. But is it done done..? Here's what I love about it:

  1. err...

OK here's what I like about it

  1. It hasn't leaked so far
  2. New shower bit looks good
  3. New floor looks good
  4. Soft closing loo and cupboards
  5. Touch free mirror cabinet lighting

New shower

Stuff I'm less keen on:

  1. Already feels crowded, but that's our fault 1, and...
  2. Mirror is too low
  3. No loo roll holder, probably down to us
  4. No room for bin, again down to us
  5. Towel rail radiator is too high and too narrow
  6. The cupboard handles are gold when everything else is chrome
  7. I don't remember choosing that work surface
  8. Extractor now needs resetting, it's supposed to be permanently on
  9. Still needs painting 2

The builder / fitter was great, we're going to get him back to do the next one when we're ready. But we're not going to Wickes for any sort of design this time, that didn't really work out.

Sunny intervals and a gentle breeze, 9 - 17℃.

  1. And when I say our fault I mean not my fault.
  2. This one is all down to me.
