BATH 1 photojournal


bathroom size : 8ft x 6 ft


obviously, semua kena kasi tukar baru lah....!
(picture taken on 19 October, 2010)

aircond water pipes from adjacent bedrooms concealed inside bathroom wall, discharge into floor trap then to the septic tank

concealed aircond wiring from master bedroom

all hot & cold water pipes are behind the blue tiles.....

ledge under construction


wall tiles almost complete


wall & floor tiles completed....time to install the bath tub.

it's a freestanding tub...so just slide in.....(easier said than done ya uncle?)

ledge completed..bath tub installed



wc not yet installed...

must construct the sink counter top first....


my lovely "mangkuk nasi" sink......bought 2 years ago for RM300.....the color and design of this sink actually determined the color selection for this bathroom....melilau cari tiles biru tu sebab nak matching dgn sink!

sink tap modified...( stop cocks & tub spout)

bath tub using same spout as sink......lever tap also modified...go figure!

boleh la letak gambar2 tu since i didn't install a standing shower head....tak mau basah lencun..

multipurpose..... hose bidet can also become hand shower for the bath tub (that's why i use a shower head instead )....space constraint la...


also, no space for towel rail....just use hooks ..

mirror bought at second hand shop ...curved tempered glass....only RM150!




 Finally..............the finished product...:)


easier to maintain and insyaAllah will benefit the next tenant some 20 years from now ....

4 months? I'm thinking of re-doing my bathroom & I'm thinking only 2 weeks or shorter, bolehkan?

4 bulan tu sbb nak kena synchronize dgn other construction aspects of the house...new wiring , plumbing (all new hot n cold), new plaster ceiling, concealed longkang kat luar tu, sourcing and order of materials etc....ini kira major operation ....bukan tukar baju je...

kalau u nak renovate just one bathroom (and x tukar location of wc/ sink / shower / floor trap )mungkin actual construction period boleh 1-2 weeks , but the materials sourcing n ordering tu mungkin 2 weeks jugak - so realistically 3 wks total insyaAllah boleh...provided u have a reliable contractor :)
