Took my time because it' not the only bathroom and I got distracted with other projects. I also have trouble finishing things. I haven't put a shower screen in yet.
I'll see if I can find the before/during thread and put a link to it.
This was an existing small bathroom just inside the front door. We never used the door, so I blocked it up (who needs a front door) and put a laundry where it was. That meant I could combine the entry space and the existing bathroom into a bigger space.
It meant taking down a wall and ripping up the existing slab etc etc.
The floor turned out great. It's Brazilian slate that comes in 500 x 500mm pieces and it's not all that expensive. We (well not me especially because I know I was going to have to do it) wanted a 'crazy paving' pattern. That sounded okay till I discovered slate doesn't want to break like stone. It sort of delaminates, or shatters in layers. So I had to make a carboard template for each piece. Then I marked the shape on the back, cut it through 80% or so with a grinder, then flipped it over and knocked off the edges. Didn't enjoy that process much. (Note the concealed floor waste in the centre.)
The wall tiling was pretty straightforward. They're great looking tiles.
The bath side and shelf is Corian - that had to be done by a supplier (cost $2,300).
Mirror was cheap - $400.
So was the tall skinny louvre window. I made the aluminium frame for it and then got the window made to fit.
The window at the foot of the bath has 10mm steel sides, top and bottom. I knocked that up in my shed.
I love the ceiling light. It was about $900 I think.
The dunny, basin, taps etc were all mid range stuff from a big bathroom supplier.
