Bathroom Reveal, Thanks to the Bathroom and Remodel Forums!X-Post
Comments (6)Lovely! I like the classic white tile and porcelain and how you used furniture pieces in the bathroom. I love that the storage at the end of the tub has pull-outs that can be reached from the toilet. Your custom sink and backsplash and counter are unique and beautiful. Yours may be the first bathroom sink I have seen in which a small or medium dog could be washed! That is a good thing! I showed your pictures to my DH because I am thinking of classic tiled walls with a chair rail for when we redo our bath in a couple of years. He liked it! I was expecting him to say, "too old fashioned." He did not, he said it looked nice. From him, nice is a compliment. He even liked your rows of listello. I was just at the Tile Shop's site the other day looking at the Hampton tiles because someone was selling some on Craigslist. I am hoping to do as you did and get what I can cheaper there, and fill in the rest from the store. I can see that you worked very hard to secure all of your materials - and then cut the floor tiles to size and culled the Hampton tiles, too! You succeeded very well in getting the look you wanted while saving money along the way. Congratulations, and thank you for the pictures and great detail and supply list....See MoreHelp with bathrooms. Divide to two bathrooms or do one large bathroom?
Comments (15)I agree with Cpartist"s layout and like moving the closet over as suggested by D M so that bedroom 3 has easier access to the bathroom. Do you have room to have the toilet face the tub and add a linen cabinet next to the toilet? How wide is the tub toilet area?...See MoreBuying windows with high STC rating in Jakcsonville, FL
Comments (4)40 or above will require a dedicated STC window in that case. Laminated glass and offset glazing can get you into the high 30's, but anything with a 40 or higher is going to usually have an integrated storm sash like the QuietLine from Milgard. You could also do a "stacked" configuration in just those openings and put another window on the inside to create that double assembly that the dedicated STC windows do. That way, the exterior of the home would look that same, but you would get the performance that you were looking for....See MoreFront elevation and bathroom window dilemma
Comments (17)We have this issue in our current home! The original windows are high and horizontal/long - they make the house look like it's squinting if that makes sense. We're planning to enlarge both windows that flank the front door, including the bathroom window in our master even though it faces our courtyard (so not exactly visible from the street, but still visible from the front of our house). We're planning to install the same style of wooden shutters used throughout the house (bifold white wooden shutters), but a water-friendly version (assume they are PVC). Planning to keep the lower half closed most of the time to obscure the view into the window from outside while allowing light to come in through the top part. The current windows are reeded glass and I actually hate the look. Our windows, however, are not IN the shower - just in the bathroom. So that might make a difference. The windows on your house look really tall/long. Is it worth rearranging the bathroom floor plan so that the windows aren't in the tub/shower itself? We also looked at window films that obscure the view from the outside (make it look like a mirror) - there are several homes in our neighborhood that have this. It might be worth looking into - I have heard that at night, there might be some visibility, though....See MorePPF.
