Hoe some of you lot are online :eek:)

In the middle of a 600x300 rough porcelain bathroom. The walls and floors are matching with the grout lines running right through and matching up.

About 3 foot into the bathroom there is a step. The step is about 3/4 of an inch. I have no idea what to do with this.

Its to small for a slither I recon especially as it will be smaller than that when the lower level is tiled but they want it covered obviously, preferably with a bit of metal trim. So I can stick the trim on the top step what what can I do about the face of the step ??

Would you put a tiny slither there?

Really appreciate some ideas as always people :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

sounds like a trip hazard to me, can't it be leveled with the rest of the floor?

i would also bring the bottom level up to the top height, a 3/4 inch step in a bathroom?
makes no sense for it to be there.`

I agree, trip hazard you could use trim back to back. but I would use a different coloured nosing to highlight small step. If you can't bring floor level:thumbsup: Some slc can go 50mm deep

The whole floor already has 18mm ply down. The step itself cannot be moved as its a loft conversion and was put there for a reason. Below is part of a stairwell

I agree with Phil on this one, contrast tread nosing, otherwise after someones had one to many to drink they could go flying....umm it happens to all of us from time to time.
