Quick Washroom Reno Update


I was going to call this post "a quick washroom update", but that title sounded a little... impolite.  For those of you who don't follow the blog regularly, I feel the need to specify that this is an update on our renovation progress and not on anything else that may happen in our washroom.

As you know, this washroom reno has been postponed and prolonged due to busy work schedules and just life in general.  However, I reminded Corey that on April 25th, it will have been a year since we enjoyed the comfort of a proper shower and so we are feeling motivated to finish and resume some normalcy in our day-to-day lives.

The next task is pulling up the old floor...


Corey's been doing a little work each night and he recently discovered that the floor under where our tub will go was reinforced with poured concrete.  Because we want to start from scratch and ensure that the floor is strong enough to hold our extremely heavy tub, that means pulling up about two inches of concrete.  Yikes!  I suppose we shouldn't be surprised that even the demolition won't be easy!


As you can see, the concrete has been almost completely removed and all that remains is the rubber membrane.  It looks like it's time for another trip to the dump...


I hope to have even more progress to show you next week!
