I want to fit a recessed mixer shower into my bathroom wall which backs onto the upstairs landing.
It's a 1930s house - wall is made of blocks - and I was thinking instead of just chasing out a cavity in the bathroom for shower, cut a hole right through. Then fit a small door or panel in landing wall which would provide access to back of mixer for cleaning / maintenance, plus I was thinking I could have isolation valves in the pipes here too.
Is this a sound plan? What kind of support (if any) would I need after cutting the hole which I guess would be about 200mm square or there about.
Thanks
