More Bathroom

The grout has been put in.

Grout has also been put in on the floor. And the glass guy stopped by today to put in the obscure glass in the window.

The bathroom door now also has obscure glass in it.

The door between the living room and the front bedroom also had to get some glass replaced.

Bathroom

Our third and final dumpster was collected. We can see the side of our house again!

We fixed part of the off-centered bathtub built-in by adding more padding. That seemed to work fine to help straighten out the placement of the knobs, shower head and faucet that the plumber had installed off-center. Except now we noticed that the switch for the (centered) plug looked like it was too for on the left. I don’t even know why this plumber still has a job, or why we haven’t been assholes enough to tell him not to bother coming back.

The tile guy laid down the floor tiles.

Flooring

The floor people were originally supposed to come Wednesday, but were unable to due to a flat tire. They were supposed to come Thursday instead but never called or came either. This screwed up a few of our painting plans. Finally on Sunday they returned to do the 2nd coat of polyurethane. This limited our work at the house, but the floors look oh so beautiful!

The brand new coated floors, still wet.

The only place we were able to work on this cold, rainy day without disturbing the floord was the laundry. We sanded down some more of the difficult molding areas of the bathroom door.

Lights and Bathroom

I’m starting to fall a little behind again, so I’m going to make a couple of entries.

I got so caught up with the ugliness of what’s behind the range vent hood that I completely forgot to document the actual hood! So here it is.

Ray was back this Saturday to install the lights. He also found that kitchen light that had gone missing during drywalling.

Recessed lights

Our beautiful, precious Rejuvenation light. Since it was our little gem we were breathing down Ray’s neck the entire time he was installing out baby, haha.

Dining room light

A fan/light combo we found at Lowe’s that I’m really happy with. We installed the same light in all 3 bedrooms. Also note the old steam pipe that has yet to be removed in the background.

Special concrete sheetrock was installed on the bathroom floor and around the tub.

Bathroom Durock floor

Our custom shower shelf.

We continued working on the bathroom door until it got dark.
