My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Excuse me bearup, but I have a couple of comments. First of all, where else would you put the toilet? This is probably the most common bathroom layout in the country, whether it's a shower or a bathtub in this position.

    Secondly, when professionals post their pictures on houzz they are not asking for critiques from home-owners. The pictures are meant as inspiration for people's own projects and to demonstrate the quality of their work on clients' properties. Please desist from posting critiques of photos unless the people who have posted them ask for people's opinions! Thanks.

      How much does it cost to do this? I have a bathroom in the exact layout I'd like to redo.

      I cant believe the comment of why bathroom next to shower. That's 90% of typical bathroom layout. Nice job!

      Wall hung toilets tend to be more pleasing on the eye in my opinion...

      It where the builder had it already when my client purchased. Much better than having it in front of the door when you walk in!

      I weigh 160 pounds and still would not trust a wall mount toilet. I’m more for safety when it comes to my toilet then having it look pleasing to the eye. It’s not like I’m going to entertain guest in the bathroom. The style of my toilet is the last thing on my mind when I have to use it. As long as it’s clean is all I care about.

      This is the same layout as my bathroom. I appreciate and am inspired by these photos. So thank you for sharing!
