Keep or move services
Retaining plumbing locations can reduce complexity; moving them may unlock a better plan but changes scope.
What the job involves
Small rooms reward early layout discipline. Door swings, shower screens, vanity depth, toilet clearances, towel space, ventilation and usable storage should be tested before products are ordered.
Decisions that shape the scope
Select to dimensions
Confirm actual product sizes and installation clearances.
Use wall space
Recesses, mirrored storage and wall-hung elements can improve function when properly detailed.
Control water
Screen openings, falls, thresholds and waterproofing junctions must work together.
Local planning point
What to check in this market
Western Australian licensed plumbing and wet-area requirements still apply in a small room. Compact does not mean unregulated or suitable for shortcuts.
