Master Bathroom
by
Leslie R
Total remodel of master bathroom; however, we have left the fixtures in the similar location but reworked the plumbing.
*My motivation to do this project:
The original master bathroom looked okay at first glance when we bought the house but later we realized that the floor sloped tremendously when we were going to retile the floor. My contractor suggested we remove everything and fix the floor or else we would eventually have cracked grout and tiles again in the future (the problem to begin with). This project meant we would have to demo the entire bathroom down to the floor joist and then saw those down to have a level floor for our new tile, custom shower, tub and vanity.
Materials:
200 sf X Subway tile, shower floor tile, non-sanded grout - $2000.00
110 sf X Floor Tile, sanded grout - $0.00
110 sf X Floor Tile, sanded grout - $600.00
52" X Claw-foot Tub - $400.00
6" X Shower fixture, shower light - $250.00
Paint- trim and walls, and supplies - $300.00
Kohler toilet - $200.00

I see you are planning on putting gypsum board over the ceiling of the shower, I suggest using a moisture resistant material such as green board or Durarock

I like the tile on the floor. It seems like it has a liitle dazzle to it.
