Bathroom renovation This is a short post . The eletricista was here and ran all the channels for the new lights. Made lots of noise for a few hours. Now we await the stone we ordered for the shower floor. It will hold the drain, and is round. All the other tiles will center around this one stone, so the stone must be first. 🙂 The plumbers finished all their stuff as well. We removed the old tank toilet (which I hated) and are installing a proper toilet like they do here now. The tank is inside of the wall. You can see it here in this photo. Bathrooms are built with a space for the tank but redoing an old bathroom is harder unless you could make a space. We did that closing up a skinny storage area for it.
Here is the stone for the sink countertop, still at the marble fabricator.
This is the round shower stone with the drain.
The muratore are down there now beavering away. They will be finishing the walls and floors, laying tiles, installing appliances. I will post again soon!
Everything built here is masonry. Nothing is built from wood, not even the interior walls, and as you can see floors as well. Our geometra in the last apartment was very upset that there was a piece of drywall in there. 😁
If you come visit it will be your bathroom!
🤣 to be honest it will be a long time until we are out of projects! An I, too, was interested to see the toilet innards
What I notice and find most interesting at this point in the project is how the subfloor is concrete, even two stories above ground. Makes for a very heavy building but strong and sturdy I presume. Interesting construction.
jeeeeeze! I thought I knew it all when it come to this work, but nope…this is scarey…sigh,…guess it is an age thing for me . We will hopedully see ths fiisheand and USE it. love
So interesting! I always wondered what was behind the wall where the toilet sits and how it all works. Your bathroom will be lovely when it all comes together, but what will you do when you run out of projects LOL?
only you could say it was beautiful! hah hah. it is a wreck. can’t wait until it starts to take shape!
Beautiful!!! Can’t wait to see the finished project.
