Well it took like 8 months but it was worth it. The guys from Thumbnail completely rebuilt the existing window so that it would be historically accurate. They rebuilt the frame and added some weather stripping, a chain,…
Other than scrubbing a little more grout haze off the floor we are done. e:Joe, e:terry and I did so much work in since the contractors left its unbelievable. Overall I am really happy with everything. I know its not 10…
They came and fixed the remaining issues. They even built and stained a new floor board to replace the one that was missing. It looks pretty awesome now. Now time to take everything back out so we can paint and then han…
Hi Paul, Keith tells me everything is done and looking great! If you concur, would like to collect balance owed of $6,750.00. Thanks for your business! My response: I would have appreciated a final walk-through. I have …
Its starting to be a joke. At least it feels that way. I can't believe someone thought the way the threshold was made would be acceptable. I actually feel insulted that they thought we wouldn't notice or care. The drop …
The owber came out and was nice about fixing the floor tiles. He agreed they didn't look right. The workers then came and dug out the tiles that were messed up and relayed them for grouting. They missed whole lot of the…
Came home tonight and was pissed because the contractors used the wrong color grout. I thought that was the wrost of my problems but figured I could live with it. Then I tripped over a tile. Then I started to look aroun…
At this point we are already about $5000 over a budget which I already thought was insane but it looks like its going to be beautiful. I can't imagine what it will really be like as a final product despite having brough…
We continued picking out stuff for the bathroom. We ended up going all with oil rubbed bronze. Everything came from Signature Hardware http://www.signaturehardware.com/ They seem to have some realy quality product. I gu…
The old back bathroom left side mirror light switch was broken. It was making me crazy be unsymmetrically lighted. Every hardware store sells only one bottom style twist switch from the same brand. It was a slightly dif…
We headed out to the Tile Shop but this time we brought Tanya with and she helped us get this show on the road. At first I thought we were going to have to wait till October because one of the stones were on backorder. …
We are looking for a signature solid slab of marble for the back of the new shower. I wonder if we will be able to find one. I really like the blue one if it was vertical, it would look like water raining down.
Finally, a late night piss doesnt require a trudge down the hall. As e:terry demonstrates, the shower will be massive.
Its being constructed as we speak. At least people will be able to use two bathrooms at the wedding hotel.
We finally got our approval to begin work, so we spent the day planning more and shopping for parts online. I really hope we can get this all in by July 1st. Seems like a pretty aggressive.
The water line going up to the new bathroom needed some repair work done and e:robert and I played plumber. I would rate us as excellent pipe cutters and solderers now. I wanted to do it last night but I had purchased t…
We continued deconstructing the bathroom. Its finally the 10ft x 10ft space I wanted. Now we just need to move the bathroom pipe and begin the reconstruction.
I can believe we made it through 4 inches of concrete to the joists. There is really nothing left. Now its jusy starting from scratch at least.
Its amazing how much I got done in 9 hours yesterday. e:robert helped a bunch beofe he had to go to work. After he left I went into psycho mode and pretty much finished the room except the ceiling and floor. Smashing th…
We continued before e:xandra's birthday party at my mom's. So much more is done but we need to do a mega cleanup now. Then deconstruct the floor, half the wall and the tub. Then the building can begin. I feel like once …
I finally was feeling well enough to hurt myself again. We got real far this time. Thank god for the dumpster. and I smashed my phone ugh.
