Sorry, i know that this is not strictly a family room topic but i'm looking for some inspiration and i thought given the great ideas on the kitchen thread that i might find it here. I have had a new window fitted in my bathroom and i need to buy a blind for it. What do people typically use or recommend for bathroom windows? I'm not a massive fan of roller blinds, i prefer roman blinds but i'm assuming the moisture in the bathroom would wreck a roman blind.


Any advice would be very welcome.


Thanks,

Charlotte

Could you put opaque film (I think it's called manifestation) over the window? We had a new window fitted with frosted glass in our bathroom, which provides light and privacy, without having to invade the window line with a blind. It removes the problem re moisture and dust too.

We have had a Roman blind in a previous house. Don't think they last as long but wasn't a major issue. Just have to scrub it regularly. ours was made out of heavy duty shower curtain stuff as it was over the bath/shower.

We have gone for the frosting and then film over top as it wasn't quite opaque enough with just the frosting....

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
