November 23rd, 2008 - There She Goes!
I Â got to take the first swing at demolishing the bathroom. That was fun.
A long and narrow bathroom. Too bad the room wasn’t a little wider. Think of the possibilities.
Â
Â
   Â
Â
The bathtub faucet was leaking and when my hubby went to fix it the tap broke off. He had to bust a hole in the wall to cap the pipe. Lucky we are shower people.                                                                               Â
Â
Â
  Missing floor tiles and wall tiles.We used to stick the floor tiles back down but I gave up and started throwing them away.    Â
Â
Â
Â
The mirrors all taped up, ready to be smashed.
Â
Â
Â
Â
Mold and peeling paint. The whole room is like this. I can’t get rid of the mold so we’ll have to take out all the plaster walls to be rid of it. And we are installing a better fan with a 4″ exhaust pipe. I heard that works at removing the steam from a shower.
Â
Â
Â
Wall #1 gone and in the dumpster. Today we will completely gut the room and begin putting up all the new wallboard and floor boards. Wish us luck!
Â
Â
That’s all for now. I’ll post more later>
Mary-Kay not a quilt junkie today more like a renovation one.
