Platform to stand on in small bathroom.

[Fekin]

Im doing a bathroom with hign celings, and basically when stood on my step ladders right next to the bath I can only just reach across the width of the bath to place the top tile in the corner of the front of the bath wall, was hard work but did it, though how Im going to grout and silicone up there is a whole other matter

What would you suggest using to place across the bath to stand on.

Something that would take 18stone of pure man , while obviously I would pad under it, but what would you use.

18 stones of pure man

Have a light breakfast and use a platform and if u still can't reach i wil give u a leg up

Bath board (18mm ply) and a folding platform from wickes works for me.

so you board across the bath then stand on your platform?
have i got that right?
be a nice change from praying while hanging off the top of the ladder

Yeah, looks like the best thing for me would be to lay thick ply across the bath and stand on that.

Correct. Though usually just standing on the bathboard is high enough.

No, as there is very little floor space and can only just get my step ladders around the room, the floor space is only 2sqm.
