I work for a tile company. We had an office fitout job that specified a polished black absolute granite floor in the bathrooms. We installed it, everyone was thrilled, until they had the opening night party and the boss' wife used the bathroom and was able to see the lady in the stall next to her due to the fact that they basically installed a mirror on the floor. We had a guy come in and acid etch the stone in the toilet area. We had the same thing happen in an elevator car at another building. A big 4'x4' diamond of black absolute right in the middle of the floor. It looked great until someone realized you could look up skirts in the elevator.

Why not just extend the toilet stalls all the way down to the floor?

Seems like other countries with more enclosed bathrooms do okay without constant panic attacks. Edit: I always assumed the lack of privacy in American toilets was a holdover from the puritans, to make it easier to tattle on people for anything and everything.

Since they work fine literally everywhere else in the world, what you're actually saying is that Americans are somehow more prone to claustrophobia and being really poo poo at mopping. e: Oh you meant Americans are all fat so enclosed spaces are more enclosed for them OK I guess that's true?

LimaBiker posted:Why not just extend the toilet stalls all the way down to the floor? Cost. Toilet room with partitions: Frame out a big box room, do all your plumbing. Tile guy comes in, tiles a big box. Plumber comes in, has easy access to hang plumbing walls. Partition guy comes in, hangs partitions (breaking all of my tiles when he fucks up drilling through them) and you turn the room over. Toilet room with European stalls (which is what the full ceiling to floor style is called in this area anyway) Frame out a big room, a bunch of little rooms. Takes more time. Tile guy comes in, tiles main floor, and a bunch of smaller floors. Takes more time Plumber comes in, has to work in a more confined space. Takes more time You also have to have the carpenter come in and hang doors at all of the stalls. You also need more lighting, in a big rear end room you don't have to light the individual stalls.

AFewBricksShy posted:Plumber comes in, has to work in a more confined space. Takes more time Nope. Unless you mean after construction, which doesn't happen that often because (Northern) European toilets don't clog much. AFewBricksShy posted:You also have to have the carpenter come in and hang doors at all of the stalls. You don't have doors at all in the "American style" shitter? Because if it has any kind of doors someone has to come in and install them.

3D Megadoodoo posted:No. This is room with European Stalls  This is a room that has toilet partitions.  The framer has more work because they have to build out more walls. The tiler has more work because it's not wide open. The plumber arguably will take a little longer because they have to make their way into the smaller rooms and don't have as wide open of a space to work with as the gang one. Toilet partitions bolt into the floor and the walls (sometimes ceiling) and from what i understand go together rather quickly. If those two rooms were exactly the same in design and size other than the style of the toilet stalls, the one with toilet partitions would be substantially cheaper to build

Yeah you can get full-height partitions because, get this, where there's a market for such things, manufacturers manufacture them and sellers sell them. Sure you can do it as separate little rooms. If you want to lose every bid to someone who doesn't.

3D Megadoodoo posted:Yeah you can get full-height partitions because, get this, where there's a market for such things, manufacturers manufacture them and sellers sell them. You're not really responding to A Few Bricks Shy. He was describing building actual stud walls for each bay which is something we do in very high end public restrooms. Using regular architectural doors (toilet partition doors are part of the toilet partition system, it's the same installer). He was describing the process to build them. You poo poo on him for saying toilets don't clog when he was describing installing toilets and plumbing. You could have started with the full height partitions. That's a thing for sure, not common here though. I honestly can't picture it. Last: that's not how project bidding works. The person who owns the property and is paying for it makes those decisions. Not the general contractor, not anyone beneath them. It's not even Architects who drive that. Owners want the right design for their place, which means the majority of places we go, they want the cheapest bathrooms possible since it's a requirement and not a feature. The grocery store, a department store, and public buildings gain no value from having nicer toilet partitions, so they spec the cheapest ones possible since they use less material and are faster to hang and take less labor. Airport Lounge, Steakhouse, and a Spa gain value and swing so far the other direction that they end up with architectural doors and walls for each stall. If we wanted full height toilet stalls it's going to take a code mandate. America is too hosed up to solve that problem anytime soon. Be nicer, write out your thoughts instead of saying "No."

So there are plenty of partioned public toilets in Australia. The partitions often don't go all the way down to the floor or all the way up to the roof, but I was still surprised when I visited the states because the partitions are so far off the floor. Is this just to save money on materials or do Americans like to hold hands when they poo poo?

What I, personally, hate in a public restroom are those highway rest stops where the stall walls only come up halfway so your head is still visible when seated.
