For those who are watching closely, there is a major upgrade to my home’s master bathroom. The work took three weeks (excluding Saturday and Sunday).
Reno (the abbreviation of renovation) begins with the excavated vanities and countertops, the shower tiles and curbs (or the new shower glass installer called the dam) are all removed, lighting fixtures pulled out above the sink, decorative tiles, bathtub and wood removal around the toilet, as well as the shelves of the toilet, and the accessibility and accessibility of the toilet. That spicy smell escaped from the large holes in the floor that the toilet used to cover, and took some habits. I will tell you. I decided to replace the toilet with a water-cut toilet.
What I also requested was to install two inline or in-pipe valves in the cold water line and in the cold water line of the shower. (See main photos). The initially built house lacks this feature, so I requested and paid for the valve installation. Of course, the water from the house needs to be closed so that the installation can be done.
You will notice the black wood behind the reference pipe in the photo. This is the result of welding to insert two inner line valves. Use some kind of torch event to allow pipe solder to melt and flow into the pipe and create a seal. The smell of burning was smelled throughout the house to use to melt the solder flowing into the pipe to make the appropriate seal to make the gas in the loaded tank. I’m not sure what the gas is used, but its ignition is powerful enough to trigger a smoke detector, causing a big sensation. When the smoke finally clears, the smoke detector is quiet and resumes work.
Consistent with the work of installing a freestanding bathtub in the previous room (the shower and bathtub are located in two different areas of the master bathroom), a large hole must be made in the concrete floor so that the drain pipe is connected from the original bathtub to the original bathtub to the location of the drain pipe in the freestyle bathtub. Drill out of concrete and emit a beautiful layer of dust that covers the furniture in the house in the room adjacent to the master bathroom. Not only that, but because the home is centrally heated during the completion of the work, a lot of the said dust is sucked and deposited in the air conditioning/heating filters of the house. Once all work is done, the filter is removed and replaced with a new clean filter.
And, since one good smell deserves another, the stains used to finish the bathroom vanity are very strong. If I remember correctly, the smell that took a whole week to disappear.
Finally, the project is enclosed with new lighting on the bathroom basin, shower (lighting for LEDs or LED varieties) and new ceiling fans installed in the toilet area, and new toilets are placed, all on the new vinyl floor, looking like wood.
Needless to say, bathrooms see many uses.
The house is 31 years old this year and has expired for renovation.
