Hi!
What do you think about this master bathroom layout?
We didn’t really want the shower to be so hidden since we plan to outfit it in a high-quality and stylish way. It would be nice if it could be more visible, not just for showering. But during the plumbing planning, we were advised to keep it like this (because of the water pipes).
What’s your opinion? Or does anyone have an idea on how to create more visibility into the shower?
The two washbasins are marked incorrectly. We will only use one washbasin (1m wide (39 inches)). Our idea is to move the bathtub to where the washbasins are currently shown and place the washbasin on the right wall instead. We want the bathtub to have a prominent spot in the room instead of being “in the corner” when we bathe.
Currently planned components:
Toilet: Duravit Happy D.2 extended version, 25500900001
Washbasin: Villeroy & Boch Venticello 1000x500mm (39x20 inches), 4104ALR1
Bathtub: still considering either Villeroy & Boch Squaro Edge 12 Combipool Invisible (UIP190SQE2B1V96) or a Kaldewei Conoduo, both 190x90cm (75x35 inches) (235200010001)
Shower:
Villeroy & Boch shower tray Futurion or Squaro Infinity
Hansgrohe Axor ShowerSolutions thermostat module Select 530 / 90 for 3 outlets, 18356000
Hansgrohe Axor Shower Solutions 350 1jet overhead shower with ceiling connection, chrome, 26035000
Keuco meTime_spa waterfall showerhead, 59982010000
Hansgrohe Axor Starck 1jet handheld shower, chrome, 10531000
Looking forward to your feedback!

Actually a pretty good topic. I can somewhat understand Hotzenplotz, the additional charges are really quite bold in some cases. Still, for me it will probably come from a single source since HVAC was tendered as one trade. How do the other general contractors here handle this? Heating, ventilation, and plumbing including sanitary ware from one provider, or do you separate any part? Ventilation might still be easy to exclude since the interface is quite clear...
Everything from a single source, including ventilation. That is at least the intention; the contract is not yet finalized. This significantly reduces the need for coordination and discussions about who will be working where in the utility room and where which pipes or cables might interfere with each other…
So far, no cost disadvantages have been noticed. But of course, it could be different.

Heating, ventilation, and plumbing all from one source, with plumbing limited to the rough installation; the rest was done by us.
The scope ended at the angle valve for sinks, and at the stopper for showers and basin taps (all exposed fittings).
The bathtub was installed by the fitter, as were the built-in flush tanks.
We saved around €6,000 (about 6,000 USD), although we did not fully maximize the potential savings there.

A ten thousand euro difference in price between two plumbing quotes just from splitting one trade? ? ? ? ? *scratching head* *disbelieving look*This is due to online ordering. I don’t see why I should pay sometimes double the price just because it’s not coming from an online shop but through a three-tier, mafia-like plumbing distribution network, which in my opinion is completely outdated.

I feel safer when the thread cutter and the nut driver are the same person. Is my view too conservative?That’s a strong argument. I would have certainly paid 3,000 to 5,000 € for that. But not 10,000 € or more!
