Bathroom Remodel

This is what it looked like before we did anything. That's rough cut cedar 1"x10"'s running around the bottom of the wall. The upper part of the wall is covered with wallpaper that looks like old time newspaper. The floor is covered with carpet. The vanity is made of rough cut wood too, and at one time had been wallpapered like the walls.
The ceiling has 12" ceiling tile stapled to firing strips. We painted the ceiling egg-shell white.
This is a better picture of the vanity.
The bathtub wasn't in to bad of shape. The only bad place it had was where the water leaked, as you can see.
We disconnected the tub and stool.
We hauled the toilet out.
We've started taking the wood out and taking off some wallpaper. The bathtub has been un-hooked, now we're waiting on more people to help take it out. We're going to re-finish it.
We got the bathtub out and pulled the carpet. That black stuff on the floor is rubbery residue that stuck to the floor off the back of the carpet.
We got the floor in good shape then painted the ceiling, walls, cabinet and window. Don't forget - When painting bathrooms you have to use an egg-shell finish or better (semi-gloss,gloss). Check the FAQ's for more does and donts. Use our Color Scheme Coordinator to help choose colors.
The ceramic floor was glued down and now we are applying the grout.
We are running the tile 38" up the wall, as per requested by the customer. Here we have the wall tile in place and the border started.
We covered the floor so dropped wall grout wouldn't stain the floor grout lines. All the wall tile has been set and now its time to grout.
Here we are grouting.
The grout work is just about done. We just have to wipe down that last little bit. In the meantime were hooking up the toilet and getting the shut-offs and hardware on the plumbing for the tub.
The tub is set in place and just needs hooked up and the hardware installed. Sure looks beautiful!
Here is the bathroom completed.
