The ongoing saga of the house renovation is now near completion stage.
Two weeks from tear out to 95% complete - only waiting on the four
foot heater which, for some odd reason, neither Home Depot or Lowe's
had in stock.

Tear out:

Whoof - that was a job and a half. I decided to do this bathroom
myself just for the experience - it's half the size of the master bath
which was redone as a "spa" with cedar walls, jacuzzi, etc. This one
was drywall, but the same tile on the floor (heated), same style
tub/shower and the raised panel vanity/medicine cabinet and vanity
light fixture I built myself using white oak stained golden.

Only thing left to do is install the heater and base board trim which
shoudln't take long at all.

It's not bad if you have the time - five hours a day for two weeks.

I built the kitchen cabinets too - same material. They came out great
too.

The contractor did the cabinet indtallation, granite countertop, waist
panels out of shiplap pine, floor and dishwasher installation.

So, starting in March, the only thing left is the rest of the floors,
resurface the living room walls, paint and

WE'RE DONE!!!

WHOO HOO!!!

Sorry for the lousy pics - I took them with my cell phone.
Very nice job. Only recommendation is where the towel rod is, put a 2x6
across the towel bar area. Makes it much easier / nicer to install towel
bars. Learned that trick working on a Habitat for Humanity project.
Way ahead if you. :)

I learned the same thing on two houses HfH did in Putnam.

Learned a couple of other tricks that saved some time too.

It's fun, but I'll tell you what- I ain't gonna do it again. :)

It was nice to dust off the old wood shop and use the tools again
though.
You should have used Union Contractors, now it looks like Billy Bob and
his retarded cousin did the work for you.

Back in the asshole filter for you.



Not me, babe. We have two idiots here "spoofing" my id, probably so
they'll do just as you just did. I don't use the posting services they
do, AND I don't use windoze.

don't read the vomit you post, except by accident on occasion. As
always, have a nice, simple-minded day.

Spoofed
I have many computers on pc and mac platforms. I do use windows. I use
several internet ids. The screen shot of my news reader showed some of
the many ids and real email addresses I use. I am H the K. I will not be
silenced by morons.
Bet on it.
