Welcome all. This is my first post in ages and it’s all about how Tim and I renovated our master bathroom on a budget. Above are the pictures of the bathroom before the reovation. Tim and I spent alot of time prepping for this renovation. Purchasing items for over a years. Catching items on sale or close out. Shopping close out. Over all cost was roughly 3500 dollars for supplies. 1400 for outside labor and 500 for WTF issues. The project took 8 week. Longer than I planned but work and school interferred with the work.
Here are the basics problems: Two vanities but no linen storage or medicine cabinets. a idiotic pony wall between one vanity and the tub. A biddet that was not used. A closed off shower that grew mold in the back. A slippery shower floor that I have personaly slipped on twice. Ouch. Blah builder grad everything!
Here are the positives: Great sized room. Toilet in great shape. Nice sized tube. Good shower size. Newly intalled tile floors.
This was not so much a renovation as a hybrid between renovation and decorating. Below I’m going to list we purchased.
21 Boxes of white subway tire and 20 12by12 glass and marble mosaic tiles. 6 tubes of mastic and 6 bags of white grout. One tub of Redblok
16 marble edge pieces and 10 marble trim pieces. Eitght sheet of pebble tile. I glass shower wall. New accessories and hardware.
2 Mirrrors, 2 vanities with tops. Four fixtures for the tube, shower and two sinks, an Ikea Dining room cabinet, two new light fixtures……
And a whole lot of time.
Some might say this was a perfectly fine bathroom and in essence it was. But Tim and I had other plans. I will post the demo pics in four days and explain the steps.
