Thanks for the reply lancenotalot. Just to confirm the problem, and what you are saying - please see the cruddy pic I drew. As I said I think that even through the bath is already sealed to the wall, I think I could raise it slightly and squirt a bit of silicone in between the lip and the...

Hi, Not sure if this is totally the right forum, but you guys obviously do a fair bit if bath install work. At the w/e just finished the first step of new bath install. The bath is a plastic bath on a steel frame with feet that screw to the floor. Screwed a batten against the wall to...

Cheers chaps, like the sound of PB - much cheaper than ply.

Hi, I have to box in the waste from the bath that runs across the bathroom floor against the wall. I have tried using plain old wood (probably pine), but this has warped for mthe heat of the waste water in the pipe. Anybody recommend the best stuff to use? It will be tiled afterwards...

Thanks for all the info chaps. Sparky is connecting the whirlpool bath so will get him to install the extra circuit at the same time. As is quite often the case, this has got me thinking :shock: We thought that since the light would be on the mirror, there would be no need for a cabinet...

kim119, Thanks for the reassurance - actually when I said that unibond tech guys said it was waterproof I meant the adhesive. Apparently there's a moisture repellant added to it. I know people have been in this position before... it's so frustrating when the guff on the back of the tub is...

Hi, In the process of refurbing the bathroom. Have recently found this forum. Wish I found it sooner! Situation is thus: Pulled off old tiles, which had been in situ for > 5yrs (from before when we moved in). Came off easy, no sign of water damage on plasterboard or plaster wall. No...

Well, you might be right, but I can't remember what it was like before. I had a closer look and there's some movement between the chipboard floor and the sole-plate of the stud wall (hence the squeaking). This area is right at the top of the stairs so gets heavy usage. Anyway - what to do...

Hi, Recently fitted a wall hung sink to a stud wall in the bathroom. The stud wall extends the whole width of the house. Outside the bathroom, there is a doorway in the wall to the master bedroom and the wall also cuts across the landing (as the stairs turn 90 degrees to meet the landing)...
