Finally! I am so happy for you and can’t wait to see the results!
Is there enough usable space behind the wall that you could turn the tub 90 degrees, slide it into that cubby, and then add a separate shower where the head of the tub is now?
Eric, that is a great suggestion. Unfortunately the space follows the roofline and is only 5.5′ at the highest point…and slopes down from there.
We really love the stained trim in our bathroom! You are so close, don’t repaint it!
OMGosh…I just spent 2 hours reading the history. You are my people! Congrats. on the completions to date, it truly is an accomplishment. Been doing mine alone since 2000 and I am wondering…are you removing the lath before your installation of under-layment for tile? Our baths are similar. About to launch into mine mid July so I will be following yours.
Alicia, we are going to remove the lath and put cement board underneath the tile. Good luck with your upcoming bathroom remodel!
Dawn, thanks for the encouragement…but we cannot go on.
No more paint stripping…lol!
Hey folks -
Glad to see you’re back on the radar for us old house freaks.
Was just thinking that you might consider doing some type of insulation while the studs are exposed. I realize they’re not “exterior” walls but every little bit helps…especially for those cold mornings or midnight “runs.”
