Plastering vinyl walls in mobile home bathroom
Comments (1)Sorry, but that's a recipe for disaster. You're not going to get anything like plaster to stay on plastic walls in a bathroom and look good or hold up over time. If you really hate these walls, paper over them, or rip them off and do a proper sheetrock job....See MoreGrasscloth/faux grasscloth wallpaper in a bathroom
Comments (2)We had real grasscloth in the living room as I was growing up. Absolutely not in the bathroom - moisture and all that might go with it are the mortal enemies of grasscloth. It is impossible to clean or patch - the whole sheet must be replaced. Vinyl versions of fake grasscloth is a whole other story. I too would be interested in other's experience with the vinyl versions because I am considering it for my bathroom....See MoreHelp with grout brand/color for hand painted ceramic tile in bathroom
Comments (46)Exactly! btw. I sound like a total rube I know, but no one ever told me I have to squeegee my glass to keep it from etching. Get the girls a squeegee and have them go to town after every shower. It will keep the grout cleaner as well as save you from having to see permanent spots on the glass door....See MoreBathroom dust and how feasible is a DIY bathroom remodel for me?
Comments (20)I got the cabinets through Home Depot (20% off) they are not higher end but they have held up extremely well and we’ve been happy with them. I don’t remember the brand, but the color is cognac on maple. They’re standard kitchen cabinets. We got 2 regular drawer banks, 1 extra wide drawer bank, 2 sink cabinets and the closet you can see in the picture for about 1800 w/the discount. We bumped the shower wall 6 inches into the bedroom to make the shower bigger, pulled the cabinets out from the wall a couple of inches to provide more counter top. And curved the edge the counter for interest. Just for fun, this is what we had to start with. The tub was rusted and there were two doors, 1 from the hall & 1 from the master bedroom, we closed up the hall door. I think we got our moneys worth. LOL As for the labor, I found my Contractor through a plumber I had hired to put in a kitchen faucet. I asked if he had someone good he could refer and he referred Matt to me. Matt had his own company but just him and his guys. All of his work was by word of mouth, he didn’t advertise or push for business, he didn’t need to. I think I got fair pricing from him because he didn’t have the overhead a lot of the larger companies might have. He wasn’t the least expensive and he wasn’t the most expensive. Finding someone who was willing to work on our schedule and not having to have it done ASAP is what really helped me to be able to keep our costs at a minium for both labor and materials....See Morepalimpsest
