Bathrooms are Done!

Aside from a door stopper and possibly some paint or grout touchups, both bathrooms are done. The shower in the master bath was slightly sloped away from the drain in one corner, so there was some pooling and that was fixed today. The rest of the tub fixtures were installed and Jameson demanded an early tubby time to try out the new bathroom.

Piper is a fan of the new bathroom too. Here are the hooligans hanging out on the potty

Hall Bathroom: Day 4

Shower head is in. New light fixture is in. Mirror is back up. Some small things that you don't notice in pictures were done. We should be back to two full bathrooms upstairs tomorrow. Though I think Jameson will want to continue to shower in the master bathroom.

You can't tell from the picture, but it's nice to not have a dripping faucet.

Hall Bathroom: Day 3

Progress progresses. The floor and wall are grouted. The walls have been painted. The toilet and vanity have been put back in place. It looks wonderful. Not much more to say.

Hall Bathroom: Day 2

Work is coming along swimmingly. The floor tile is in. The wall tile is in. I like the color Jessica chose. Not as brown as the master (the photos are a little deceiving), but with a white tub, that makes sense. The decorative tile looks real nice.

Not sure if it's related, but Toby's having another allergic reaction. His face is all puffy again. Looks like another trip to the Vet is in store for Wednesday.

Hall Bathroom: Day 1

Now that the master bath is done, time to turn our attention to the hall bathroom. Andrew came by again to assist with the demo. Here's what we started with.

Even more dull than the master bath. The walls are even white. A few years back we did have the tile on the floor redone, but after a year or so the grout started falling out and a few tiles cracked. The new tile is similar to the master, so there should be a vast improvement.


First day of demo also included installing the new tub.

Not only will it look better, but the faucets in the sink and tub won't drip anymore!

Master Bathroom Nearly Done

The shower was grouted yesterday, but here's the first picture. The hardware was put in today so it's essentially finished.

Piper is checking out the grouted floor and finished shower. The walls were painted and the vanity and toilet were put back in place. All that is left is grouting the tile along the floor and maybe a little touch-up with the paint. Oh, we might need a bar for a shower curtain. Small details.

Bathrooms Day 3

The floor looks pretty marvelous, doesn't it?

The shower was grouted also, but I'm not entering the room right now even though the thinset is probably totally set. Better to be safe than sorry.

Tomorrow might be a painting day. We picked up the semi-gloss this morning. Things are really coming along.

Master Bathroom: Day 2

Work continued on the master bathroom. It's looking pretty marvelous. The shower is completely tiled and I really like the tile Jessica chose, especially the little accent tiles.

The vanity and toilet were removed temporarily to put in the new floor tile. The floor itself is pretty uneven, so that will need to be fixed first.

Brand New Bathrooms

Our bathrooms are pretty small. They're also kinda blah. While we can't make them any bigger, we can make them look better. Here's what we're starting with.

Plain white, old school tile. Ugly shower door (that's slightly askew so it doesn't close very well). I like the wall color, but that doesn't seem to show very well in these pictures.



So after the first day, the shower has been completely removed, as well as most of the tile. Just the part around the toilet remains to be removed.
