Things are coming along very nicely in my bathroom remodeling project.  The whole thing started out with me re-caulking the tub and has resulted in me replacing the outside of my house and completely remodeling the bathroom. Long story.  Anyway, I picked up the last of the hardware this weekend and we've picked tile and paint colors.  Here's a rundown of what's occurred in the bathroom:

  • Pretty much everything has been removed from the bathroom, aside from the toilet (so far. It may eventually get replaced as well). This includes:
    • Old tub
    • wall tile in the shower area
    • sheet rock on strategic walls
    • old double-sink counter-top and cabinets
    • carpet and linoleum
    • wallpaper
  • We removed the wall that separated the main bathroom area from what I refer to as the "toilet nook".
  • We capped off a set of sink supply lines and drains.
  • We moved another set of sink supply lines and drains over about 2 feet to accommodate a new pedestal sink.

I'm currently in the process of running new plumbing from the old tub/shower supply lines to the new shower hardware and a separate Roman tub faucet. I've decided I like plumbing quite a bit.  I've always wanted an excuse to play with a blowtorch.

After the plumbing is complete, I've got to run two new circuits to run the pump and heater on the tub.  That should be fun as well.  The easiest way would probably be to run conduit from the outside breaker box along the outside of the house since it's only about 20 feet.  I'd prefer coming off of the inside box, but that will be considerably harder.  I'm still evaluating the pros and cons of each approach.

Anyway, this is what has been consuming my free time lately.
