Several phases involved, but we have a much nicer and more functional bathroom now!!

Six of us share this main bath and the 1/2 bath upstairs. Mom, Dad and four little girls (ages 3-7). Dead/unused space, stained shower surround, peeling/rotten subfloor around tub and only one sink (many fights there) generated several phases of 'remodel' that changed our bath. Now we have two sinks, a built in medicine cabinet, tile shower, new flooring and lots of storage. Yay!
( the swinging door was replaced by a pocket door, the 'dead space' behind the door now serves dual purpose - a floor to ceiling storage half and the second half is medicine cabinet (between the studs) and then opens to the hallway behind the bathroom - convenient storage for our central vacuum accessories.) The vanity is the same but we replaced the top two drawers with rev-a-shelf inserts. The second drawer had to be cut slightly but is still serviceable (sp).

Way before.
After the new sinks - top drawers lost - now they are rev-a-shelves.
One sink - but you can see the 'medicine cabinet' and bifold doors to the storage side.
This was a FUN project!
We hired a guy to do the tile.
