Finished Bathroom Pics (two bathrooms!)--very pic heavy
Comments (41)Wooo!!! Cat, I am stuck at home because of the snow storm so wandered around here not looking at anything in particular and came upon your thread. I totally agree with you on the shower curtain choice. Regardless of whether I have the money to spare or not, keeping those suckers clean is a nuisance over time. We have a glass shower door that was installed back in 2003 and I can't tell you how much I hate cleaning it. Not that the door is all that dirty, but a shower curtain is way easier, and you can change the look/style whenever you feel like it. Can't do that with a pricey shower door. Anyway, everything looks lovely as usual, including the "prom" dress :-) Love, love those circular tiles, and the floor tiles that look like fabric. Gorgeous. What colour is that again? It looks greyish on my monitor....See Morebathroom remodel permit issues
Comments (1)here's a suggestion, but remember, it is never very wise to design by e-mail or on the telephone - I can't really see what's there, and you may misconstrue my words. If the bathroom is quite small, you might be able to double the floor joists above so they are 48"oc instead of 16"oc. This is like framing a stair opening. If you currently have 2x8 floor joists this would add 7" of ceiling height in the middle. Then you would have to make sure your floor above was strong enough to span the 48", which might mean new 2" decking - so there I've lost you another inch... You also might be able to take out the floor above and frame it again with 2x6's 12"oc, or 2x4's 6"oc if the span is short enough. Your town might ask for an engineer's stamp for that. If you have walls on the floor above the bathroom, you might be able to hang the first floor from the walls over the bathroom area, instead of bearing on the floor joists. Then you would have no joists and more height. If you have 2x10 floor joists, 16"oc, consider 2x8"s 12"oc....See MoreGlass mosaic bathroom tile for Calamity J...
Comments (13)Queen of the bathroom!!! ha ha ha ha...gee thanks. This bathroom is our one and only...not easy to remodel with a family of 4 let me tell ya. The wall tile is Hakatai Ashland 1"x1" in Burnt Amber. The floors are 4"x4" red limestone with the glass inserts. The granite was the biggest pain. They wouldn't split the slab so we had to buy the whole thing. Only needed less than 1/3 of the slab. So what do you do with a big piece of rock? You beg your other half to build a piece of furniture! His first one. I think he did a great job :o) A note about the paperface tile: It came in 1'x1' sheets, but because of the weight I sliced them into 6"x6" manageable pieces. The first few sheets I had the thinset squishing through too, but knew I'd never finish having to scrape the groutlines out. So started to backbutter the tile instead...sped things up immensely.

Comments (6)I am ordering interior doors from Urban Doors. They are located in Los Angeles but do ship. I am in Los Angeles so I don't know what shipping would be in terms of pricing. My designer recommended them and I went out to look at their showroom - quality seemed very good and pricing was very reasonable. I also considered Trustile and Urban Door had better prices.
