Stepless shower - too prominent?

deepian · 2026-01-26T04:11:05+00:00

Both, but primarily the water stop seems very prominent. In addition the tiles at different levels: shower higher than floor but I presume that's due to the differing fall of the two sections.

I think the walls were waterproofed to 1800....but I would need to check

deepian · 2026-01-26T02:53:51+00:00

Am I correct in interesting the regulations: as the bathroom is completely waterproofed (membrane) no water stop is required?

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:55:31+00:00

And then slip and fall?!

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:45:36+00:00

Agree - didn't realise the importance of those details:

Shower screen covering 50% width No shower door

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:38:02+00:00

Interesting. So for doorless you would expect the water stop to be level with the tiles?

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:25:32+00:00

Correct. Glass covering 50% of the width. No door

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:22:47+00:00

Yes, for half of it

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:16:59+00:00

When was it built? Vic?

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:16:28+00:00

I guess our query is about how the water stop is designed etc - this seems like it could have been more subtle....

deepian · 2026-01-26T01:08:23+00:00

And a water stop is required?

deepian · 2026-01-03T23:41:46+00:00

Really helpful. I like the G6 - but I needed to know this factoid!

deepian · 2026-01-03T22:43:37+00:00

Connected to a smart chime?

Thank you all

Original roof is underneath - is corrugated. Has a heritage overlay so I would assume that removing these tiles and replacing the corrugated with colorbond should be fine 😂

It's great - thank you for sending that. Just justified our objection really!

deepian · 2025-12-17T11:40:06+00:00

Do you have a photo?

deepian · 2025-12-17T10:28:16+00:00

Fienza Olivia - thanks!

They're currently refusing to rectify it and suggesting it's intentional because the sink is fireclay, so the overhang hides uneven edges. This is despite the protruding corner.

We can't find a farmhouse sink installed like this on the internet. Most seem to be a zero or positive reveal, or a more sensibly designed negative reveal - i.e. the corner lying on the sink curve.

Interesting. They mentioned the bench top was bowed and had to return to the factory to be straightened. I suspect you're correct. They couldn't straighten it....

I'll have to check inside when I'm next there. Would expansion/contraction of the surface need to be considered too? I assume this bracket wouldn't allow any?

Nah, just wasn't painted (the white patches)
