So we have been seeing what we assumed were bits of mold on the tile in our shower, and we knew that it wasn't a good sign. We got our tax return back earlier than normal this year, so Joel decided it was time to tackle the bathroom, and hope the damage was not too extensive and expensive to replace!
 |
| Gross. the tiles just basically fell off. Look at that nasty stuff! |
 |
| see all that dark black stuff? Yah, that's mold. nice. |
 |
| And we found out why we had mold....we had a leak. Look at that water just hanging off the wood. |
 |
| Is he fooling you with his "happy expression?" |
 |
| Joel had to do eveything himself. We couldn't afford to hire a company to do it, so he taught himself and figured it out. He ended up having to take everything, including the tub, out and start from scratch. |
 |
| We opted not to put tile back on the walls, but to instead do a wall shower surround. We did pick new tile for the floor though. |
 |
| TA-DA!!!He did such a good job. It took a while because he could only work on it over his days off, but it is so nice to have 2 working showers again. We want to extend the tile into our vanity area and re-do that as well, but that is a whole other project. Maybe at the end of the year? |

Oh I am so scared that thats what our walls are going to look like when we take out the bathtub too! Yikes. Joel did a great job though!! It looks awesome!
Nicely done. I hate how expensive it is when you find a little sumthin' sumthin' that's suspicious.
