Combined bathroom - plus or minus?

The desire to change everything around, at least visit every person. Including the decision to make not only the furniture but also a more ambitious event - alterations.


Two dominant conventions of redevelopment, requiring strict compliance are as follows:





Do not expose the demolition of load bearing walls.



Do not change the installed location of the "wet rooms" in the apartment - bathroom, WC, kitchen.


To change bored or even an awkward space in the apartments are demolished walls, warmed loggia, knocked out of the external walls, doors and Windows leading to the balcony, combine the bathrooms.




Find additional centimeters due to the thickness of the partitions and "making" a new look interior, you will have additional opportunities for interpretation space.




In most cases, redevelopment combination gives a positive result. Say - positive result is possible only with the right approach, weighted, done solution, both aesthetic and functional.




In the bathroom there is a possibility of installation of additional sanitary-technical equipment, which increases the comfort of the premises, and in some cases predict the development of new problems. Therefore, in case of combination faucets definitely about the positive side of this company is difficult to speak.





So, what is the difficulty?


Work here is simple logic. With a decrease in the number of premises in apartment needs of residents do not decrease. The frequency of visits and duration of stay on the territory of the bathroom remain unchanged.




If the family is small (for example, a young couple who have just started to live separately, or older people whose children have moved to other apartments), bathroom shouldn't be a problem.





And if more?


So in apartments where the family lives, which includes two adult parents and teenagers or younger, this innovation will become a minus. Will require significant changes. Visit all the duration depending on different circumstances, the need of visiting different family members are often the same.




So we have either to accept employment object and dancing to expect, or to run to the neighbors, or to authorize the bathroom in the morning during the training session at work, school, kindergarten; enter on schedule a bath. If the apartment simultaneously inhabits and older generations - grandparents, difficulties with visits to quantitatively increase, the same happens in large families.




Perhaps at the design stage of the building in different parts of the apartment was laid two pairs of struts (sewer and water). Then you definitely have the opportunity to do a guest bathroom with WC (washbasin) and master - aligned.




However, if this convenience was not provided, and the apartment is home to more than three people, do not rush to demolish the walls. The ensuing difficulties can negate all your efforts.
