About the Master Bath ...

Everyone has been asking me about the construction - since it has gone on for so long - so I decided to blog about it and include a few photos. We had a plumber issues last week that caused a major work stoppage. Tomorrow, our general contractor will return to complete the demolition of the master bath mirrors and begin rewiring and replacing sheet-rock while we wait on the new, new bathtub. There should be big progress next week ... but I guess I said that LAST week too!

Disregard the hot pink lumber ... that was the framing for the beautiful drop-in Portrait bathtub that will be going back to the manufacturer, per Plumber #2. Don't ask about plumber #1, although he may have made the right decision to "no-show" two weeks ago. We will be installing a rectangular under-mount tub with a granite topper. It will still be pretty, but the Portrait tub was my vision for this bathroom. Juan will have to reframe the area to support the drop in tub and granite slab.

In this photo of the cabinets the mirrors haven't been removed and the old shower plumbing is still hanging from the ceiling where a wall was taken out. That will come down when Plumber #2 gets back. You'll notice that you can see Elvis through the giant hole in the bathroom floor ... it's a great view from the living room & provides easy access for the dust to flow through the house.
