Bathroom Reno: Part One

We have been planning and looking forward to a bath remodel since the day we moved into our tudor. Not only was the bath tired but it had a late 1970's, possibly early 1980's vibe to it; on top of that we also suspected that there some moisture and dry rot issues. 


We are working with David Hill Construction for this project. We asked that they start the project while we were back East visiting family and they were game. It was a wise choice since the demo is messy business!


While the bathroom was being disassembled they found very faulty wiring and lots of dry rot, like we suspected... it's a good thing we took this reno down to the studs!


The wiring has been corrected and they are putting the bath back together.  It was so much fun making all of the selections for the bath with the help of my friend and designer Laura Nathan, she has amazing talent! After we brainstormed our dream bathroom I collected estimates on the cost of the project and then did some re-selecting of materials to bring costs in line for what we had budgeted.


This is the last view of our 1970s bathroom and I couldn't be more excited to see it carted away!
