Day 3: House renovation*




Sanitaryware

Things are moving on swiftly - bathroom walls going up, new windows going in. My client's builder has arrived 2 weeks early, so the planning phase has literally gone out of the new window. It's seat of pants stuff. We have to get ours hands on lovely sanitaryware - and fast. No time for online items with 10-day leadtimes. The man on the phone at Cardiff bathroom store is our saviour. He has a Villeroy & Bosch acrylic Oberon bath in stock. The white modern curves of this piece will suit the space perfectly. It looks double-ended [luxurious and great for kids] but isn't so space-greedy. He also has a semi-recessed Roca Senso basin - more curves that will add warmth. We get a shower too - a Hudson Reed model with stunning cross dial. And a Phoenix heated towel rail and Ideal Standard Concept wall hung toilet. Seriously good for two hours shopping...
