What our upstairs bathroom looks like now. No shower. Fiber ceiling tiles. No exhaust vent. This will be changing soon.
nogrodsmithy:
What's under those tiles??? Wall paper. Paint. Plaster.
nogrodsmithy:
When they ripped down the walls, they found this old "switch plate". It's just printed on heavy bond paper.
nogrodsmithy:
They removed the rest of the walls, the toilet, and vanity today. They also removed the ceiling, now you can see into the attic.

We told the guys working on the bathroom that one of the cats got under the door yesterday, so they left their tools like this to keep the cats out/safe.

Came home to find a fortune in our yard... or maybe it supplies for the bathroom remodel.

Starting to put stuff back in the bathroom. Plumbing, electrical, and flooring.

Time to seal the walls of the bathroom

I foamed the outside walls of the bathroom.

Some framing, and new tub & surround were put in today.

nogrodsmithy:
The vanity is in.
nogrodsmithy:
ALMOST done. The window still needs to be replaced, as does the door (they're both on back order). After that the mirror needs to be picked out still. BUT the rest is ready to go! Tonight I took the first shower in this bathroom.
