Comments (20)When I look at vintage houses, I think there are always things that I would never choose myself if I were building a new house, or if I have to replace something. But if there are there and they are in good shape, I would live with them and try to like them for what they are. I would never pick out the elaborate pillar and arch style cabinet doors in the kitchen and other areas of this house, but I wouldn't take them out either. The bathroom I am renovating now is bathroom #2 for that space. It was poorly done in 2000 subway tile style with pedestal sink. (Style is fine, handsome sink, not quite right for the house). There was a crack in the plumbing that could be accessed only by making a hole in the floor of this bathroom, so the whole thing is demo'd. Evidence shows that the original original was white tile with gold sparkles with a gold and black mosaic floor, unknown fixture color, maybe gold. I could as it turns out, replicate the tile in this bathroom (Daltile Golden Granite tile for the white with gold sparkles, and Daltile Keystones porcelain mosaic in Luminary Gold and Black.) The fixtures would have to be black or white, but it would be the original color scheme. I am not going to do that. If it was still here and in good shape I might keep it, but I am not going to duplicate it. But I am going to try and do something that looks like it could possibly be original--just not gold and black....See MoreBathroom Tile, Counters and Drop in Tub Deck Help
Comments (3)I’d suggest you use the quartz on you tub deck because tile sizes go in and out of style. Depending on when you sell, they can date your renovation. Regarding the marble, when I recently renovated my ensuite, I was strongly advised not to use it where water might sit because, in time, it will yellow, even if it’s been sealed. After I’d heard that, I realized that that was why my former shower threshold was stained....See MoreShould I extend shower or leave space for freestanding tub & towel bar
Comments (16)does your bathroom have another heat source? if not, i'd say i'd still want a heater for the odd chilly morning. my shower is in RI and having the ceiling heater (as well as the central heating) keeps us from having to turn up the heat for the whole second floor 'to get it to run' while showering....See MoreNew build, need decision quick on Master Bath tub surround/tub deck
Comments (21)I know this is an old thread. I'm comtemplating if I want a tub at all but if I get an air or a jetted tub, if the sides have stone around, how do you reach the motor if you need a repair? Just curious if anyone has dealt with that situation. For my current outdated tub, I can reach the motor through the the cabinet; I have a cut out there. I could do the same thing. But adding a slab of quartz to a tub make for a very expensive tub. Dominique, what did you decide and are you happy with your decision?...See MoreRelated Professionals
