Hello,
I'm renovating our very small bathroom and the most efficient and ergonomic solution means that a 1500 tub is installed.
We'd like to install a L-shaped tub as opposed to a P-shaped, but it means that the tub would overhang the (disproportionately) large window by about 3-4".
I have 2 options. The first is to have a custom screen made to cover the overhang and the second as suggested by one quoter is to put in a solid section of studwork that takes care of the overhang (which would over hang the window by the same about as the tub).
I had never considered the second option, but I have my doubts. Essentially it would be a 2x4 fixed on the inside of the window recess, flush with the inner wall. The entire wall would then covered with 20mm Marmox ensuring that the junction between the stud and the wall is covered by one complete piece of Marmox. It would all be tiled over and around to the window (which I imagine will be fiddly). The window is so big that even with the stud, it won't really impact the natural light.
Good idea or bad idea?
