Tub is done!

Made good progress last week; finished hanging the bamboo planks, grouted and caulked the tub, repainted the walls, and started tiling the floor. Finally getting close to having a useable shower in the house again. Pat will definitely be happy! 

Clampimg the last corner!



Really not enjoying this. Can you tell?

I'm glad this step is done. After much thought, I made the decision to go with white grout. Easier to match the caulk. Getting neat caulk lines around the tub was tough. I do not like caulking. I'm not good at it and tend to make a mess, so it took a lot longer than necessary.

After grout and caulk.

New paint color.

Since the previous color choice didn't work with the tile color, I tried some other colors that included a couple shades of green and an off-off white. Ended up selecting another shade of blue. It's a milder grey-blue. Funny how we ended up back there. It's better, but I may still change the color in the future. For now it will work.

I'm excited to be tiling the floor; means I'm getting close to being done. For some weird reason, I like tiling floors altough cutting tile outside in the garage in the snow is not fun. Anyway, we selected a grey 12"x24" tile. This tile size is testing my saw's capacity. I ran into a cut that it can't make. May have to use the grinder tomorrow.  



I'm trying to get the floor done by this weekend so I can get the vanity hung and the plumber back to finish the fixtures next week. We'll see how it goes. Time will tell. Until next time, thanks for stopping by.
