Convert a Bedroom to an Ensuite bathroom on Greville Road Kenilworth The owners of the house wanted to change the original front smaller bedroom into an ensuite bathroom for the master bedroom. To achieve this, the door way from the small bedroom to hallway would need to be closed. A door way from the master bedroom to the new ensuite would need to be created.
Below are the floor plan layout to the original small bedroom and the floor plan for the new created ensuite.
The original small bedroom room size is a good space for an ensuite with the length of the room at 212cm and the width is 191cm. The position of the window and the doorway into the master bedroom dictated the best layout of the ensuite.
Images of the Bedrooms before the ensuite is fitted
The image below is of the smaller bedroom that is to be converted to the ensuite bathroom.
The image below is of the wall in the master bedroom where the doorway to the ensuite is to be cut out, fitted with a door frame and door.
Ensuite Stage 1
The room has no hot and cold water feeds or waste pipes for the bath, basin and toilet. The first stage is to run a soil pipe from the new location of the toilet to the existing soil outlet which is outside of the room. Then we need to take a hot and cold water feed to the room.
The two images below show the new soil pipe running from the downstairs cloak room along the wall into the ceiling space between the ground and upper floor to the ensuite toilet location
Ensuite Stage 2
The next stage is to cut out the doorway from the master bedroom into the ensuite and remove plaster from the walls, remove any plaster board.
Ensuite Stage 3
With the waste pipe and water feed in place, doorway cut out into the master bedroom, the next stage is to build the studded way between the ensuite and hallway and plaster board all the ensuite bathroom walls.
Ensuite Stage 4
Fit the bath, carry out the first seal to the bath wall and then begin to tile the ensuite bathroom walls.
