Bathroom Mostly Finished

The bathroom is pretty much finished except for the flooring. That will be done when we fix the kitchen floor. Under the temporary vinyl are the porch boards since it was a back porch back in the day when the place was built.

Before.
After: And finding out that the wall there on the right is tilted in as it goes up. Made things more interesting than we needed.

Yay verily yay, a toilet in that flushes all the time, not just half the time if that.
 The vanity and sink were put in yesterday with a new faucet set :). The flooring will go down when we do the kitchen floor and just take it into the bathroom. Plus he is going to make a cabinet next to the vanity to put things in that will be below the med. cabinet which goes goes up on the wall Monday.
The door to the bathroom from the kitchen isn't back on as yet as we need to replace part of the frame work that is bad. Be prepared lol.
 Yesterday evening dear hubby put the last of the middle support boards in for the see through roof panels for the green house.



Wish I was in Church today but I am not feeling well and that redone bathroom is way more than my friend today. I would never make the 40 minute drive.

Redoing Bathroom GADS

We pulled the sink and vanity, toilet, did some first coat painting and then dh started tearing up the 6 layers of flooring and several inches high bathroom floor. All had more than enough screws, nails and staples and glue.
1. Vinyl
2. Particle board
3. More particle board
4. Carpet
5. Linoleum
6. Plywood
Then the old board used as the base of the floor. We think the bathroom was put in, in the 1950's. There used to be a outdoor John behind the garage.
We have 55 inches by 60 to work with for sink, vanity and toilet. Plus the small bedroom doorway into the bathroom.




Layer of carpet under other layers being pulled out below.

 And wa la down to the oldest floor boards, finally.

One of the daughters came up and brought the grand girl that will spend a few days here.
All fireworks shown were safe and legal.
