Help! Marble Mosaic Bathroom Floor Disaster!
Comments (8)And I thought I did bad work after drinking a case of beer and not sleeping for three days. While splitting my work hours with one eye on the tiling job and two eyes on the portable TV I brought to work with me so I could watch playoff baseball. All while minding my three toddlers that I had to bring on the job because I forgot where their daycare was located. While blind in one eye. And with my left arm in a cast and my right arm in a sling. While working barefoot. On an empty stomach. Okay. My question to him is "why" does he feel that this is the best that can be done? If it's because he has limited talent, he should have forewarned you. If it is because of limitations with the material, he should have forewarned you. But on the whole, no it is not acceptable. Repairs could alter what you have; losing the "polished finish" for example. Replacement, as has been mentioned, may be the best option....See MoreBathroom exhaust fan problem - please help
Comments (8)Thanks for your thoughts. The vent levers to the outside wall were opening fully when the fan was on, thus eliminating the possibility of 'stuck levers' or any thing disconnected as being the problem. So, I called Broan and spoke with a man who said it sounded like the motor wasn't doing it's job and in spite of the fan being out of warranty, he was very generous in his offer to send a new motor at no cost. I'm a Broan fan for life as a result. On Monday, our handyman is coming to install the new motor and use spray foam around the opening to the attic which should eliminate the 'attic smell'. I think that sealing up this gap will also improve the fan 'draw'.

Comments (29)Thanks to everyone for their concern. They are measuring today. Plumber thought it would be okay but he hadn't actually measured. I'll feel more secure when they have actual numbers. Luckily the toilet and tub are on site so they can measure. I remember from our previous remodel being worried about the inspectors catching that the toilet was too close to the tub, but no one seems to think it's a problem here (inspectors have been in and out twice and never mentioned it, so I think it must be different here). Anne, thanks! I love how it's coming along. How long did it take you to do that pattern? I love it and have easy access to dal tile, but I'm worried about committing the time to doing the design myself. I'm already doing the builtins and a bunch of other small projects. Lundy, I took a look and there are a couple of possibilities there - don't love them as much the swirly one, but definitely doable. There is so much beautiful tile on your site.. If I had more time, I'm sure I would eventually find something in the imperfects that would work....See MoreNarrow bathroom floor tile help please
Comments (3)IMO small tiles make spaces feel smaller and I almost always use 12 x 24 tile on flooors and shower walls especially in small bathrooms but you have a pretty narrow walkway there so best to figure out how you want the tile layed as you don’t want slivers of tile if they can be avoided....See MoreS S
