Checking out progress on the washrooms at the place ive been working at recently... a couple of strange ones....
Firstly, the close coupled cistern about 5" away from the wall...a standard one would have been more approporiate surely.
Secondly, the rad.... never seen one at shoulder level before, surely its not common practice

I guess the rad is above a table?
They have put the toilet waste too far from the wall, which pushes the toilet away, Maybe they'll fit some spacing wood ( a handy shelf) behind the toilet! _________________ www.hintonheating.com

Some things still amaze me!
I hope that you are still there when the bathroom is finished and then you can take more pics  _________________ DIY | DIY Video |

in that case, maybe the rad is placed high enough so no one can sit on it (or did I mean s*it on it ) _________________ If you have a son, DO NOT name him after a verb ....

I wonder if the line underneath the rad was meant to mark the top of it? Not the bottom... !
I the rad plumbed in? The pipes are well hidden. |

I think you might be right Tel, although they dont seem to worry about anything else getting covered
Phill, i ll have a look next time to double check it is a rad
Unclek, the pipes run close to the wall, the ones on the right of the rad are connected. _________________ Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one? |

Irish plumber, he marked the rad on the wall and the bottom was meant to be the top  |
