Ours was 3K, included all parts, glass, labor. The shower is a modified square shape a square with a slice off of one of the corners. Of course, that's where the door is. He really struggled with getting it all to line up. Mostly because the standard door wasn't the same size as the opening for it and there is an additional trim piece of glass beside the door. Looks great in the end, fainted at the price. Good to see that others are familiar with these kind of numbers. He did everything, measure, fabricate, deliver, install. They were very tall pieces of 3/8" tempered glass. It was no picnic for him!

Goods news about having the water source really close. That's half the battle. Except for having hot water & that would be relatively easy to fix with either a small electric H20 heater or a demand use one. Not so sure about the gray water from a kitchen. You may get into problems with codes, etc. Having a septic tank could possibly make the sewer problem easier. How far is the septic tank from the proposed new kitchen? With the sink on an exterior wall, maybe you could just run a whole new line to the septic? This is sounding more & more do-able & shouldn't be hugely expensive, either. Esp. if you're dealing w/ a modest distance to the septic...or to a point where a new line from the kitchen could tie in w/ existing line. Are you in south Texas? If so, that also makes it a lot easier & less expensive because of either having a very shallow or non-existent frost line. (You could also explore locating a small batch water heater in a closet on the exterior of the house if interior space is at premium?) Good Luck! I'm anxious to hear how this turns out.

I'm not sure about the difference between GardenWeb and Houzz Discussions, so I hope it's okay to post in both places. We're putting in a 32" x 40" shower base as pictured, and we'd like to have a glass wall on the side facing the vanity and a shower curtain on a track from the ceiling on the side facing the toilet. We'd like to use products from a home center and not spend too much money. Any ideas on the simplest options for the walls and partition would be most welcome. The first photo is from a design program. The second one is what the room ACTUALLY looks like. The white cardboard is a template of the shower base dimensions. We don't mind moving the shower plumbing. The toilet's too close to the wall, but we're not going to move it.

I think AirBnB is different from VRBO, and so we may use VRBO, which might require me to be the agent. If one is using an agent for the rental, then it is illegal for the agent to deny children, but if the owner is the agent and owns fewer than three rental properties, then the owner can restrict his property to adults only. Cathedral City is not really a place that children would want to go - in fact, the owners of the house are selling it because their children refuse to visit there. If we have to offer it to children, I will raise the amount of the deposit, refuse to allow pets (which is perfectly legal), and offer it as a two-bedroom instead of three. The third bedroom is an office at the moment, and so I can easily list it as two-bedroom. I don't want a crowd of people there at one time anyway, and as a two-bedroom, no more than four people would be allowed to occupy it, by CC regulations. We do not need the extra money from six vs four people, but we do need some income from this property, since I am retired. We will, however, be interested in renting to people who attend the Coachella Festival, and the rents for that time period are the highest, but everything still gets booked solid. My sister's stepson in Austin owns several houses (that his father bought for him), and he makes $30K during SXSW. Kevin and I make a point of avoiding visiting our sister during this time, even though it is close to Kevin's birthday in March, and March plus October are the nicest months in Austin for weather. Our nephew had the great consideration to have his wedding in October, and so we went to Texas for that, but our niece had hers the first week in August, and I refused to go, although Kevin did, despite the 110° weather with 90% humidity.
