We did a home improvement project over the summer. I say we. We didn't do it, a contractor and sub-contractors did! Can I get an Amen to that?!?
When the previous owners renovated our house, they ran plumbing up to the third floor. But they didn't go ahead with a bathroom up there. We knew that when we bought the house and it was actually a good selling point for us because we knew we would be utilizing the third floor. We decided no time like the present to get the use of a bathroom up there, so we went for it!
The plumbing is actually behind the wall of Nate's room, so there were not really any other options of relocating the bathroom to be between the bedrooms up there. Score for Nate, who gets a bathroom in his room!
Here is what it looked like when we started...framing.
This is the shower area on one end of the bathroom.
The footprint of the vanity...
The commode area on the other end of the bathroom.
We have drywall! It was so exciting to see each step come to completion.
The shower after it was framed and waterproofed.
The plumbing is there for the sink!
The little nook created inside Nate's door.
The floor tile is done! It is white hexagon, which matches the second floor bathroom.
The shower is subway tile, with a gray penny border, which also matches the tile layout of the second floor bathroom. We tried to make the bathroom match our other bathrooms, so it was pretty easy to pick out finishes.
The finished bathroom! We LOVE the way it turned out!
It's a pocket door, I haven't taken any pictures since that was finished. Scott did the trim and it looks amazing!
Overall, we had a good experience with our contractor and the people that worked on the bathroom. But I'm glad to have my house back:) On to the next project!
