Ahhhh..the pink bathroom. Pink; no more. We did a complete overhaul! New sub floor, floor, paint, sink, toilet, towel racks, mirror,........
One afternoon, Bob went into the bathroom and moments later yelled for me. He heard a cracking sound (like rotting wood) and felt like he sank a little...so I went into the basement to investigate......
What I saw verified Bob's fears...the toilet had a slow leak and was starting to compromise the integrity of the wood / floor! This simply would not do! We had Tripp's 1 year birthday coming up in a matter of weeks and tons of guests scheduled to join in the fun - we could not risk a toilet falling trough the floor incident!
Time to get to work!
1) remove the old toilet - check!
2) expose cool old wallpaper - hidden behind the toilet tank
3) figure out exactly how many layers of floor exist
5) remove floor coverings
6) Remove rotted sub-floor
7) cutting new boards to "marry" to existing supports and create more bracing....
Yeah!
The bathroom was finished just in time for Tripp's
1 year birthday party!
