... https://i.pinimg.com/originals/6d/6c...57db42a12c.jpg Yes - a brilliant idea for making use of what is normally waste space. I presume the brackets unhook or unscrew for the rare occasions when you need to work on the plumbing or clean the back recesses under the bath. |

https://i.pinimg.com/originals/6d/6c...57db42a12c.jpg Disastrous. The large volume of unreachable space behind the bath will accumulate cobwebs and detritus and the bits you can see will be impossible to keep clean. The less often it is used the worse it will get, but however often it is cleaned it will be impossible to do it properly. The picture is misleading, a real bath is lower and wider at the bottom than it appears here to be. -- Roger Hayter |

I reckon gradual buildup of dirt in the inaccessible regions would be the down-side. Are you suggesting the 'buildup of dirt' will be more than it would without the opening sides and if so, where is the dirt coming from? Also, which of the items being stored there would be affected by said 'dirt'? I have pulled similar items out from under the kitchen sink that may not have been touched for years and whilst they may have some dust on them, it's nothing that can't be wiped off pretty easily before use (and no one here is going to drag them out regularly to clean them for no reason). ;-) Or are we thinking this would be 'wet' dirt, with water coming over the edge of the bath getting in the gaps around the doors etc? Maybe the gaps could have seals or drip strips over them? ;-) I have always considered the space around the bath as wasted but because it's a corner batch / shower, I'm not sure how easy it would be to make use of.

... Ah a picture file very helpful. It's a washing machine, though less deep from front to back than normal, mounted on the wall roughly where a low-level toilet cistern would be, with a toilet below it. I wonder if it's intended that the grey water from the washing machine is stored and used to flush the loo. |

Getting in anf out of the bath will probably result is water entering the cracks at the top and sides of the doors and I'll bet the doors are either weetabix chip or MDF. -- -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |

Under my (boxed in) bath and under the floorboards it gets pretty mucky. I've seen that at mums on her upstairs suspended floor bathroom but after many many years. Spiders, mice, draughts. (This is a rambling and much-modified old cottage, not a nice neat square box). But dry. Ours is ground floor and solid concrete so maybe why I haven't seen much stuff under there the couple of times I've looked in maybe 30 years. It did get me thinking of a 'cubby hole' or two, like you sometimes see in the back of cars or the rear doors on vans etc? The problem is the bath side is curved so not easy to fit such a stock cubby hole to. Nothing stopping me moulding my own I guess (in true DIY fashion). ;-) Cheers, T i m |
