We are in the process of updating the downstairs bathroom. New tile, new fixtures, and having a shower put in to up the value of the house. While looking for he stuff at lowes, we decided we would also update the upstairs bathroom as well. While we are waiting for the contractor to get started downstairs, I figured I would post a few pictures of the upstairs update. I'm pretty proud because I did all of it myself.
I removed the old sink, vanity, mirror cabinet, and lighting fixture. I put the new vanity together, rebuilt the drain which was made of steel before, and is now using much easier to deal with PVC. I hung two shelves over the toilet, a new towel rack, and a tp holder. I did all the electrical work on the lighting fixture and it worked on the first try without me electrocuting myself. Everything is level, nothing leaks, I even installed a new shower head. Big props to Jess for doing all the painting while I assembled all this stuff, but we were able to knock it out together in 2 Sundays. The first sunday was paint and sink, and then this sunday I put up the new medicine cabinet, and hung the new light.
All in all it cost about $400 for everything and the difference is huge. Here is a link to my mac gallery to see the pics. While there, also stop by and see all the pretty pictures form when I was snowboarding in Utah.
