Bathroom remodel


I started this one Wednesday of last week. Took eight days to finish. Nothing really wrong with the bathroom, the HO just wanted to update the tile.

Great coverage on the floor tile here. I guess that's to be expected when you use mastic, though.

Mastic directly on chipboard here.

The shower is ready for grout. (Kerdi shower, of course)

Finally caught him working! Doesn't happen very often.


All done.

Looks good Kevin!

At least the removal is easier when they skimp on the coverage.

Did you use ditra on the floor as well?

It was on a slab, just direct bond with Laticrete Multipurpose.

Re: Bathroom remodel


Wish my bathroom looked that nice. I'd read the newspaper, magazines, books, everything in there! Does it have a padded loo seat?

Look on either side of the tub. There are connections for cable TV and telephone.

Sorry, Peter. No padded seat. As a matter of fact, it wouldn't even stay up by itself.
