#Saniflo bathroom layout free
I have a free checklist with support emails to help with getting your project off to a good start and making the right decisions for you. You could make the bathroom a bit bigger by taking in some of the kitchen and you could make some of this into a utility room as well.
Then add another bedroom, possibly with ensuite into the loft, and turn the dining room into a bedroom with ensuite and walk-through wardrobe where the current bathroom and kitchen are. As a suggestion: Maybe you could add a kitchen to the back of the bedroom one / reception room and open that up to the landing, study and front bedroom to make a big open plan kitchen/diner/lounge to the front (if you're extending into the loft you'll probably need to have a fire protected stair so keep this in mind). It is usually easier to use the existing SVP or add one at the back.
You would need planning permission to add a soil vent pipe to the front of your house to change the study into a bathroom - might be possible to get approval, but not easy. This is all work needing building control approval, though probably not planning - though it would be worth checking with your local authority planning department to check. The current head height in the loft will be reduced by the insulation build-up that you will need to add to the roof and probably by new floor joists that you'll need to add (the ceiling joists alone are rarely enough to take the floor for a loft conversion). You can drop the ceilings for all the rooms at 1st floor to create more head height in the loft if you need to - this is a big job, but is doable and might be worth it. If you climb into the loft (being careful not to put your foot through the ceiling) and measure the height from the top of the ceiling joists to the underside of the ridge, then you'll get some idea of the potential for a loft conversion. If there are other loft conversions on your street then it seems likely that it is possible, if not then that might be an indication that it is either not quite high enough, or that there hasn't been enough value to be gained from doing it (although if that is the case and the area is up and coming then this might change). It is very hard to tell from the photo how much head room you have in the loft space.

Then you can either set your budget by the potential uplift, plus perhaps a little to cover your enjoyment of living there for the next 5 years or so. I would check that out by getting some sketch plans drawn showing what it would be like with a loft conversion and then having a chat with some local estate agents to get an idea of what the likely uplift in value will be. I know there are plenty of neighbourhoods like Jesmond where spending that extra doing a loft conversion is probably worth it. Looks like a really lovely flat with loads of potential. I should add that I'm the only one living here so it's not going to get used that often. I'm having a wet room so this is about as appealing as a cup of cold sick. Will everything have to be connected to the same pipe? Or can the shower and sink be separate from the toilet? Another nightmare scenario you read about a lot is the sewage coming up through the shower drain. People have even said it will devalue the property.Ģ) The en suite will also have a shower and a sink. It will look awful, essentially, and be considerably more expensive.ġ) Does anyone have *anything* good to say about having a macerator toilet? The horror stories online are really putting me off. I've been told it's a major challenge because it will need to go through steels, and joists that run the wrong way, and will ruin original features like coving etc. The only other solution is to have the pipework boxed in which will have to go down into main bedroom on first floor, along landing, into bathroom and join up with soil pipe there. Typical dilemma: the en suite will be at the front of the house under the eaves and all the plumbing is at the back. I'm having a loft conversion in a small Edwardian mid-terrace house.
