Washrooms - How Many in Your House

[Jules]

We have a small house, yet have three bathrooms. Two on the main level and one in the basement, which is partially finished. I’m glad we decided to install that one for guests. They’re all small, except on cleaning day because that’s a fussy job that needs to be done right.

Do you have easy access to one if you have medical issues that prevent easy mobility.

 

[dobielvr]

I have 2, both easy to clean and get to.
I'm in a ranch style home, so they're both on the same floor.

 

[hollydolly]

I have one Bathroom and one seprate toilet... never felt the need to wash in the toilet, so I'll just say One washroom..

Both are upstairs so no easy access if I'm downstairs and unable to walk for example..

In my house I had two full bathrooms. Here just 1

 

[CeeCee]

This house has a bathroom on first floor but just toilet and sink. My room has a full bath, my daughters bedroom suite has a full bath and the two boys have a Jack and Jill full bathroom.
Should be called Jack and Jack though, lol

I notice Canadians call it "washroom" because I used to watch Property Brothers and have watched other shows out of Canada. We call it "bathroom" (or restroom, especially in public places) and in my apartment, there is only one.

Two bathrooms .. full bath/shower ensuite, and walk-in shower in the other one. We are in a 2 bdrm. condo.

 

[Teacher Terry]

I have one in my condo although the bigger condos have 2. When I was raising my kids there were 5 of us and one bathroom. It was a big old house. Then we moved to a different state and suddenly had 3. I would come out of the bathroom and one of my sons would be standing there waiting forgetting that we now had 3.

yes we only had one bathroom when I was growing up, for 6 of us.. I find it incredible looking back at how we all coped.

 

[PeppermintPatty]

Two bathrooms.
One on each floor.

 

[BC Flash]

I have 3 floors with a bathroom with a tub or shower on each floor. The tub is used once or twice/year. The dog(s) have their own shower (aka outdoor hose!!)

 

[Teacher Terry]

My mil raised 6 kids with one bathroom. She had a shower curtain around the bathtub and toilet so more than one person could be in there at once.

 

[NorthernLight]

One bathroom in my small apartment.

My late fiance was American. When we were traveling and I said something about needing a washroom, he'd say, "What? Are you going to wash your clothes?" When he said rest room, I'd say, "What? Are you going to have a nap?"

 

[Alligatorob]

Four, more than we need. One with a huge tub, two with tub/shower combos, and one shower only.

What did he call it? I can think of more colorful and descriptive names.

 

[timoc]

I think that I should have just one bathroom and a hosepipe in the yard to flush the guests, well, I don't want to spoil them.

He called it a rest room in public places. I think bathroom at home.

Actually Diva, we call it "The John"

 

[OneEyedDiva]

Actually Diva, we call it "The John"

Yes, that too. Here are some other slang terms for bathroom/washroom and where they are used. I've also heard it called "the crapper" but that one is not on this list.

Seven.
I eat a high-fiber diet.
Actually, my property has 2 houses that are connected by a wall. My sister lives in the front section & her house has 3 bathrooms on 2 levels.
I'm in the back section that has 3 levels & 4 bathrooms - 3 with showers & one small one with just a toilet & sink.

 

[RadishRose]

Two.

 

[Jules]

Even if we didn’t have all these bathrooms, I’d still like to have a powder room (toilet and sink) so guests wouldn’t have to use my main bath. I had this in one townhouse. It helped with urgent toilet emergencies.

 

[Mr. Ed]

Is a toilet the same as washroom? It’s a paradox to consider the place where you empty your bladder and discharge your intestines a washroom, unless you consider wiping as a form of washing?

 

[LadyEmeraude]

My current small place has just one bathroom/washroom, it's all I need for now at least.

I think it means you wash your hands after.

I have 3, one I use and two extra to clean.
