Lights and medicine cabinet


One medicine cabinet was broken, so I tried to fit the other one we bought (for the other bathroom) and we didn’t like it. So we took them back, got a different one, and it’s much nicer. I also got the lights all in. Looks nicer now!

Let there be tile


Tomorrow…grout, in-ceiling lights, medicine cabinet. Well, maybe not grout. Might be too tired.

Day Two


Got all the tile (pretty easily with a hammer and screwdriver), baseboards, toilet, medicine cabinet, and shower/bath fixtures ripped out. I think we’re gonna hire a plumber to install the new shower faucet controler. I’m sure I could do it, but a plumber can do it better and faster.

Bathroom #1 destruction begins


- Got the sink, countertop, and vanity out. Vanity will go back in with new sandstone countertop.
- Built the frame for the two in-ceiling lights. Also adding one above the bathtub.
- Hole in wall to fix bathtub in bathroom #2.
- old tile is coming out real easy. Concrete underneath is nice and clean and smooth.
