Day 17 - Grout

What a difference grout makes. It is really starting to look like a finished bathroom. The new toilet helps too.

Day 16 - Home Stretch

The floor is almost completely tiled; my design, Paul's handiwork - loving it! But I have to wait at least a week before trying out the radiant heat floor (too bad, I was hoping to test it out as a new nap spot). The walls are close, too, so just a few more finishing touches and I'll be able to post the "After" pictures.

Day 15 - More tile, More floor

Walls look great, floor is coming along...

Day 14 - Floor

I know this doesn't look like much now, but it will probably be my favorite thing about the bathroom. Any guesses?

Day 11 - Even More Tile

I am sure this is boring to everyone but me...but here are pictures of the tile progress.

Day 9 - More Tile

Bit of a delay because we had to wait for the building's plumbers to inspect the work of my contractors as well as try to determine the source of an ongoing leak coming from the apartment above into my bathroom. Turns out there is a lot of water damage in their bathroom behind the shower and will all need to be replaced (oops! sorry for the bad news). So, just a little more tile work and install of the medicine cabinet - fits like a glove.

Day 8 - Tile

First glimpse of what the tile is going to look like. What do we think?

Day 7 - Walls!

I was starting to get used to the spacious, exposed pipes look of my bathroom, but it has since been closed up with gypsum board and Durock. At least I have walls! You can more clearly see the space for the medicine cabinet and shower recesses. Also the electrical work for for the ceiling vent and sconces are in place.

Day 4 - More boxes...

My apartment is starting to look more like a warehouse...
The plastic is to protect my bedroom and living room from all the dust.

Day 2 - New Framing

They've put in all new studs and framed for the recessed shower shelf and new medicine cabinet.
