Bathroom Remodel

Now it is my bathroom and the laundry room's turn to be remodeled. The demolition started yesterday and I am going to track the progress of the remodel on this blog. This bathroom was originally built in the 1970's and besides some paint jobs, new accessories and shower heads here and there the bathroom is pretty much the way it was built. The whole house was built in the 1950's. We learned that the bathroom was in the 70's because behind one of the walls we found 3 calendars! One from 1973, one from 1975 and one from 1976. The previous owners just threw a wall up over the calendars!

Here are some before shots! Its in bad shape, but just wait it will be BEAUTIFUL soon!




you can tell the sink needs to go!


I could not show all the before shower pics because they are bad! :o)

here is Justin ripping out the wall in the shower.


here is one of the calendars we found!

the laundry room had to be emptied out too!

this is my floor and shower busted up.

Matt came by to see how it was going. He is a good supervisor :o)

Justin trying to get the tile from the shower up. We ended up having to go get a sledge hammer to get it up.

here is the view from the laundry room into the bathroom.

After the sledge hammer! Its pretty therapeutic to take some swings with a sledge hammer!

this is where the sink and toilet used to be!

end of day one, view from the laundry room!
