Modern Bathroom Renovation {Week 2}

Demo day! WOO HOO! Who doesn’t beloved a expert renovation demo. Last calendar week I showed you lot the plans for our Modern Bathroom Renovation. I’m going to hold upwards giving weekly updates until the projection is completely finished – which I’m hoping is solely 6-8 weeks?! That’s a tight timeline, but we reaaaally want our chamber back, hence we’re motivated! I’m going to part our demo plans equally good equally i GREAT tip that volition SAVE you lot fourth dimension as well as coin inward the long run!

Week 1 / Week 2 / Week 3 / Week 4

Week 5 / Week 6 / Week 7 / Week 8

Week 9 / Week 10 (Final Reveal!)

Last calendar week I promised that I’d recap the layout. The BIGGEST argue that nosotros wanted to renovate the bathroom, was to teach a bigger shower. We had this brusk lilliputian foursquare i alongside a huge frame as well as nosotros actually wanted to expand it. The solely way to teach the extra infinite nosotros needed was to renovate the cupboard first, as well as deed the door to the other wall, beside our bed.

This ^^ is the earlier layout of the cupboard as well as shower.

This ^^ is the after layout. You tin lav come across that nosotros got rid of whatsoever wasted infinite from that lilliputian closet hallway. We expanded the shower as well as created a lilliputian spot for hereafter built-in shelving (still to come!). The cupboard was finished final fall, as well as has a beautiful sliding barn door inward front end of that opening now.

See the total Closet Renovation.

Since all of the structural changes are done, it was fourth dimension to rip the identify apart! lol.

We started past times taking downwardly all of the shelves as well as racks, as well as ripping off the tile some the vanity.

Then nosotros had to rip out the tile as well as frame some the huge tub as well as receive got downwardly all of the tile on the wall. Basically nosotros simply hammered all over the walls – if I had whatsoever frustrations that day, they were all gone past times the fourth dimension this demo was done!

Because nosotros were replacing flooring tile, nosotros needed to rent a Tile Stripper from the Home Depot to take it all. We could’ve hammered is all ourselves, but nosotros could pick out to pay for 4 hours alongside this guy, as well as it took less than an hr to take all of the flooring tile – SO worth it!

And since you lot can’t deed tile easily inward a garbage bag, nosotros used these buckets to take everything from the room.

There is i uncomplicated tip I enjoin everyone when they enquire most doing demos: Package as well as label EVERYTHING!

I know that this sounds simple, but it’s SO tardily to teach caught upwards inward the excitement of a renovation, pulling off trim, unscrewing shelves, etc. as well as nosotros simply throw all the “keeps” inward a pile until nosotros postulate them in i trial to a greater extent than – but hence it’s impossible to honor what goes together if it’s non labeled!

We role pocket-size baggies to slice together all of the hardware. Even if it’s simply going inward a garage sale pile!

We also label all of the cut back as well as baseboards – bath angle piece, FPR (which agency fireplace right). You volition give thank you lot me later!

So here’s the room, all demo’d as well as ready to hold upwards pose dorsum together!

Next calendar week I’ll hold upwards sharing some of the reasoning behind our tile, faucet, as well as fixture choices. Stay tuned!
