My wife is awesome, over the years she has supported me as I spent many hours and many more $$$ on my cars, she is now receiving payback.

With the main bathroom renovation complete Joan has hinted that the Master Bathroom is the next project out of the job jar.
To the younger members when your wife hints that means DO IT NOW!!!

So at 7:00 am the work started, here are a few before shots:






Then the work started.
By 1:30 pm the bathroom looked like this:





Today all I have to do is remove the floor & subfloor, remove the exhaust fan, and then fix the two holes in the ceiling.

You're getting pretty good at this Ian...I've got one downstairs that needs attention. Just kidding - I'll take care of that next year (if it doesn't rot on me first!). So how many cars = one bathroom?

I don't even want to guess, all I can say is even after 2 bathrooms and a kitchen I think I am still ahead

Thanks Thanks Alot.
I'am off to Rona and Home depot for a KItchen reconstruction by the time i'am done the house will have to be re-fitted to meet the home and garden show specs.

Paul, just show youe wife the picture of the demolished bathroom and tell her it is the finished version.
Maybe we can start a new decorating trend, "Nouveau studs and plumbing"

I've got a funnel if you want to upgrade from that hole in the floor.

Thanks for the offer James, but someone lent me a bucket which is working really well.

Aren't you allowed in the "good" bathroom?

I dunno...I might spring for the funnel. The bucket will get a little ripe after a bit...

The good bathroom is mine
That leaves Joan with the bucket

The renovation is moving along very well; framing & studding done, electrical rough in finished, plumbing rough in finished and drywall hung (have I said how much I hate drywalling ). anyway taping comes next YUCK, then the tiling starts. Still aiming for an end of May to a "functional bathroom ,,,, may not be finished bathroom but it will be functional

Sounds like you're making good progress. Lets see some pics.

So pictures coming soon.
Drywall finished, crown molding up, and everything primed, paint tomrrow.
Yesterday bought $2000 worth of white marble tiles and trim, guess what I am doing next wekend?

regretting buying $2000 worth of white marble tiles and trim?

The bathroom is progressing well.
This weekend I grout the tile and then leave it as is until after the summer ... I need a break. Next fall I will continue with building the vanity and tiling the steam shower. The bathroom will be functional with toilet and a temporary vanity.
Here are a few updated picture just before I grout the tile
