Check the space around your toilet and basin against code minimums and comfortable sizes.
How this works
From the toilet centre to a side wall or fitting the code minimum is 38 cm (15 in), and 50 cm (20 in) is comfortable. Keep 60 cm clear in front of the toilet and 70 cm in front of the basin. Toilets are 54 to 70 cm deep, basins about 45 cm.
