I started remodeling my bathroom last October (yeah-Oct. '08) but I 'ran into' a few delays...like rolling my CR-V on the interstate 3 weeks after I started-but that was no biggie, really-went back to remodeling in Nov. for 2 weeks...then HOLIDAYS came n went (along w/all the $$ I needed to finish) and I got back to work in Jan. 09...til I broke my right hand in Feb talk about a string of good luck...
ANYWHO-hand is healed, my master-bath is all done, and my wife is FINALLY off my back! I even got a :kiss: for gettin the whirlpool tub in with a nice ledge/bench for her to sit on while she shaves/does whatever women do in the tub-also doubles as an access panel to the tubs' two power cords (whirlpool tub needed a dedicated 20a circuit) and storage for all the bathroom cleaning supplies.
We'll go the usual route, n start at the beginning with a pic-by-pic detail of the buildup.
-had to rip out the existing wall with doorway/entrance, moved back into hallway 3.5'-took out hallway closet replaced with open space that will get built-in open shelving; ripped out old toilet n moved where tub used to be-broke out old tub (in 10min FLAT-by myself w/a sledgehammer) put new whirlpool tub on opposite wall with new glassblock window; relocated upstairs vent stack into new wall w/doorway n reattached; setup all new electrical conduit/new circuits for the vanity light, overhead light/exhaust fan/heater fan, and towel heater...
I think that about covers all tha crap I moved/tore out/ replaced/installed
