Hey everybody I am new here and am looking for ideas and how tos on building a bathroom in a 7 x 16 trailer that I ordered. I am new at this so as much detailed pics and descriptions would be great. I have searched on here and looked at alot of good ideas. We will be using this trailer for motocross and just need a bathroom with a sink. Sleeping on air matress and possibly adding tv for the little ones Thanks guys

Welcome you will find the group here very helpful I'm sure others will point you to builds that have bathrooms with showers and sinks.
I like the outside shower installed as well.
again welcome and please post pictures.

I used tile in my shower area but if I were to do it again I would buy a RV shower pan = you can find them on Ebay.
I like the look of tile but the trailer has to be level for it to drain properly,I found this out after I had built the shower and went on my 1st trip.
With the rv pan you won't have that problem.

I bought a small hot water heater off ebay I think I won it for 40.00 but I think they sell for 60-80.00 it works great but you have to also buy a water flow tap to control the water flow rate so that the slower the water goes in the hotter the water will come out,it also has a different type plug that you will need to cut off and put a standard plug on to it.
