BATHROOM DESIGN & BUILD
This morning I noticed someone searching my blog page for pictures about Tub Fillers in a wall niche.
Surly they found this photo of a large master bathroom renovation I complete a couple years back here in North Vancouver.
It's hard to tell from the photo but I bowed out the wall behind the tub so we could have a little bit of a shadow line left and right of center. I furred the wall out with a new 2"x6" wall to create the space since the wall is an exterior wall. This helped create the bathtub niche and gave a place to mount the tub filler and hand held sprayer.
The space was not missed in this master bathroom since it was one massive space. Well worth the loss of real estate I think.
I'll dig up some more photo's if I can. I'm curious of any of the other tile pros/ plumbers here have designed a tub set up this way.
Terry you got any good images on file? Roberto? Counter Balance?
