shower/wet room size

What is the minimum size for a wetroom/shower room, with a sink and toilet? I have about 90cm x 165cm. Will it fit? (although there will need to be an internal wall included in the 165cm length - how much space will that use?)

configuration will be something like:


toilet sink shower
door

(sorry, can't draw or scan in image!)

    Which wall is the door on and where is the window and the radiator?
  • door will be opposite the sink, opening outwards. there won't be a window (it's internal) and as the kitchen it comes off will have underfloor heating, could that be in the shower room too?

    You need a minimum of about 240cm.

    The door is 70cm minimum, really. You really want a 90cm shower in a tiny space like that. 80 is pushing it.

    Anyway, you're hitting 150-160 without space for the loo.

    I say 90cm for the shower, 80cm for the door, 70cm for the loo. 90cm for the width of the room is fine. Any new studwork needs 10cm.

    The other option is about 150cm square with a quadrant shower. Door on one side.

    Don't go for a wetroom that small - you'd end up with the whole room wet when you shower!
    The image below shows a tiny showerroom and is 1m x 2.4m, If you go any narrower the loo would have to be on the end wall to allow standing space.
    1.65m would only allow for 20cm between the shower and the end of the loo- just not enough space.
    Try measuring out movement space around your current bathroom & see what you need!

    The toilet coming off the width, pointing towards the shower gives MUCH better leg room.

    A classic design and looks good in aluminium. If you're trying to be as efficient with space as possible it would be criminal not to consider one.

    I have a shower room under my stairs with toilet, basin and shower. The room is 80cm wide and 210cm long. I got the smallest toilet I could which was a 60cm projection. I don't think it would be comfortable any smaller.
  • Thanks. I think this one is being returned to the drawing board, or may just become a toilet room!
