I think your walk ways are too tight in all but the new angled shower design and even that has a hip bruising possibility too. I have a slightly wider room, 13 x8 and although not a small area, 104 square feet is not large enough to have it all. I thought hard about my priorities and decide a tub was the thing I would get the least use out of so it was 86'd. I think you need to decide between two sinks with a large shower and no tub, one sink, a small shower and a tub, or large two sinks, large shower, storage and no tub. Or a shower tub combo. One item needs to go to function easily I believe in spaces this narrow, sorry I hope I am mistaken and you can do it.

Am I mistaken or is the room only7'7" deep? I believe with average vanity and tub depth needed you will struggle to get the recommended 3 feet aisle clearances.

@Let's Remodel: Second from top is the original layout, so I appreciate the input, however, I am confused about your reference to enclosing. If we go that route, we either have to build a knee wall to separate the toilet and tub, or leave open next to each other. Do you have an opinion about that? I mean, freestanding tub next to toilet with out any separation. Also, splitting the sinks was a last minute idea, and I am gong to nix it right now!

@roarah It's my understanding that min clearance reqs are 30" and we should have about 32-34" all said and done

Anyone else?

Tub in corner against front of wall to left. Shower against rest of left wall. Vanity across back wall. Toilet against front wall to left of door.

Only plan I can devise that doesn't feel super cramped. Location of tub filler will be key.

Is there a piece that is less important to you. Which could be sacrificed if you can not get the recommended 30 inches for when I plug your pieces into my soft wear I only ever get 27 inch clearances. Stand alone tubs may be 32 wide but they need space on sides and back for tub fillers that can take up to four inches or more. Would you be willing to have a smaller shower, a single sink or no tub?

As roarah suggested you can't have it all. Ditch the tub and make a nice roomy bathroom. 27" clearance is not wide enough.

Actually...

It's 91" wide. It's actually okay as long as you get true sink vanities, which are only 21" deep generally without the counter and about 22" with. Can't use kitchen cabinets though. I forgot about the difference. Duh.

With 32" tub and shower, that leaves 37" clearance from her plans to the vanilty, which is fine. Down to a 24" clearance just in front of the toilet is to code and 27" is fine for just that area.

My plan, with tub to left of door, allows for a nice 6' tub and a shower that is 55x36, which is more usable and way more luxurious than a tub and shower that are 32x60. You can deck mount a faucet at the end of the tub. Refining the plan, under the window would go an extra narrow (18") built in hamper/cabinet to give plenty of room for the shower and tub. The toilet would be against the LEFT wall, not the front wall. Then you could do a U shaped counter with 48" of cabinet front on the left wall and 66" on the back, plus fillers.

Minimum clearance in whole bathroom would be 36" from hamper counter edge to bath tub and slightly more from toilet rim to tub filler pony wall. My plan gives a 3' tub entrance and shower entrance.

most six ft long freestanding tubs I looked at spec more than 32 inches they were closer to needing 38" which is why I with a 8 fix 13 bath was steered away from one by my architect. Are you working with pros yet?

You are talking about a drop in not a freestanding that accounts for some of our confusion. Free standings are deck less.

Roarah--I assume deck mount plus tiling flange in such a scenario. Can have tub filler at end near door or on wall.

You need to either have deck mount a LARGE distance from the wall, like 4" or more, or up against it with a tiling flange for cleaning. You don't want the tub filler across the tub unless you can't help it, either.

Hi Jennifer,

We have a similar layout as yours. Just wondering what you finally did with your bathroom. Can you post a pic of the finished project? thx!

I’d love to help you visualize the space by putting together a 3D model for you! Email me lindsay@lindsaylausch.com
