- Flooring – Replaced with 12×12″ tile that was also installed around jet tub platform.
NOTE: Client was a Direct Buy customer. Plumbing fixtures, tub and tile purchased through Direct Buy.
LESSONS LEARNED:
- Jet Tub — Always make sure you can get the new tub into the bathroom. Fortunately, the window next to the tub could be removed and re-installed.
- Shower Ceiling — Many homes in the area during the 1970’s and 1980’s had showers with fur-down ceilings — which meant that the shower felt like a cave — plus didn’t have much room for tall individuals. Although this client did not remove this ceiling, I strongly recommend that all clients remove them — it really makes the shower (and room) feel much larger.
