Costs

Pushing the three stalls on one side of this design together so that they're next to each, will eliminate two stall walls. Based on this pricing, you would be looking at $450 savings for just the wall panels.

Edit: Hi again, sorry for the edit, and sorry if I’m being annoying for making this. I apologize if I am being annoying, obnoxious, or ruining the fun for the past couple of days when I answer, as some replies on here have been saying. I believe this subreddit is an amazing place built on an interesting idea, and following some tragic events in my life in recent years, I have been very fortunate to meet a bunch of wonderful people, questions, and great answerers in this community. To hear many attacks and allegations directed at me, especially ones I have constantly denied, to the point I possibly made this place worse on accident, is personally saddening to me. You have every right to hate on me.

This and I'm no plumber, but I'd imagine this would unnecessarily complicate the piping setup.

Edit: My notifications are full of so many conflicting answers lmao

i don't think the piping will make much difference in cost when it's newly installed. the panels totally would though. these badboys are deceptively expensive.

It would. It's easy to do a string of urinals next to each other. I sent this to a plumber friend and they said "I'd refuse a job like this... Not really, but I'd be grumbling to myself privately when no one was around the whole fucking time I had to work on this bullshit"

I mean, he should at least be honest and say he’d be grumbling either way.

Grumbling above background level.

He’s a plumber. He’s a grumbler. He’s a midnight fumbler.

Grumbling expensively no doubt

u/songoku0893 10h ago

Oh then he was probably one of those "I can do the exact same job but cheaper" guys. Complaining about how "hard" it is to do instead of doing it
