A bathroom completely unsuitable for a family of five. Not to mention in desperate need up updating. However, you turn your back on a couple of guys for a few seconds, and here is what you get...
A really big mess. My dad and Matt had that torn completely out before I even got a chance to take pictures of the process. And I do mean destroyed. We hauled out the 800 pound bathtub in one piece, but everything else got smashed to bits. The view here is from the boy's closet. He has lost his closet in the quest for a bigger bathroom. Eventually, he will get a new one. Probably not right away, but maybe in a couple years.
After said extremely heavy bathtub came out, there was a lot of water damage to the floor. Since we are changing the layout of the bathroom anyway, we have to change the plumbing around. So, out came the floor with it.
There is a beam in the middle of the doorway now, since it will be walled off. The new door will be just to the right of the old one. It makes the space easier to walk in, put a big tub and double vanity in. I've already bought my jetted tub, which was my main request for this bathroom, and I have my vanity all picked out. Just have to go get it.
The existing taupe wall is where the closet was. You can see how much larger it makes the space in there.
The boy will gain a new closet someday in the future. But he is a toddler. And a boy. He'll be OK for a while.
Demo is practically done, now. So keep staying tuned for the putting it all back together pictures!
