Upstairs bathroom - WIP

[edwardk]

Thought I'd start a new thread for how to fit out my upstairs bathroom.

It's at studwork stage with most of the first fix pipework there (hot/cold sticking out of walls but no waste pipes yet).

I've started to add noggins for things like loos/basins/extractors etc and was wondering about basins in studwork walls.

I have a Roca Dama Senso Square basin :

It came with fixing bolts to screw through and hang the basin off.

I was about to add in some 2x4 noggins to hold this and then thought that maybe it wouldn't hold the basin?
I notice that there are basin frames - do people use these in studwork ?

I have some chunks of oak, would I be better off using this instead of softwood ?

Sorry - clueless again !

Here is the bathroom so far :

Thanks - helpful ! Got that on order - just trying to put the wastes in before the rest of the kit comes.

Any info/help on how to work out the waste pipes ?

Start with the 110mm soil pipe as it's the most difficult and inflexible. Plan the other two wastes. Then fit soil pipe. Is that what you mean?

Any issues with sliding doors ?
I wanted a sliding door as I think a hinged one will be too big in a small bathroom.

You should look at bi-fold doors too before deciding 🙂

1200mm width?
A sliding door should be better:left open.
