Plasterboarding downstairs toilet

One job I have been putting off was the last bit of plasterboarding work under the staircase for the downstairs toilet and cloakroom. Odd shapes and angles, differing ceiling heights and various fitting around the curved and twisting staircase. It also needed a bit of planning to allow for provision of the electric water heater under the stairs.

With a fair amount of head scratching and a bit of trial and error we finally finished it off this week. We managed to squeeze the 150 litre hot water tank under the stairs and put in a door to close it off from the toilet. I did have to buy a standard sized door and frame and cut it down to size to make it fit, but it worked out well end the end. It does mean that the plumbing can be finished off and the last bit of sanitaryware installed next week.

These are our experiences of running a gite business in Brittany, France. A gite is the French equivalent of a country holiday cottage. French culture, language, taxes and bureaucracy. Find out about our gites using the links on the LHS. This is our fourth season (2006) and we are looking forward to the summer. Stories about the road to this point will be added in due course. Renovation nightmares, builders, stress, schooling etc. Stay tuned.
