Knee deep in bathroom remodel

[rob-c 3591]

So this is my  last room downstairs to be remodeled and I’m finding it being the smallest to be the biggest pain. Ok what I’ve done -  tore out old closest , drop ceiling and the double layer of  luan and vinyl flooring .I framed in for a new ceiling and closet,  new exhaust fan and light duct work / vent ,  installed duct work for heat  and did a 90 for wall vent ( it is so nice having heat in the bathroom ) installed another outlet , hung half the ceiling and got the closet shelving in . We’re using a PVC dual sided shiplap one side is  standard shiplap and the other is wainscoting. Wainscoting side going on ceiling  standard on walls . Will finish up the trim and and install bifold doors this weekend after staining . Still waiting on the shower unit then more framing before install. Pretty happy how it’s going but still lots of work left.

I did the same in our previous home.  Closet became a walkin shower.  Did all the tile work myself.  Lots of work indeed.  I enjoyed doing it because the finished product was something I created. I'll dig up some photos if I can find some.  It was 12 yrs ago.  Lol.

Well closet is done, still waiting on shower unit, that’s really holding me up now .  We decided to sand our original oak vanity to see and it turned out very nice, so we’re going to re- stain it and use it zero wrong with it. Wife wanted a barn door type doors on the vanity so I got them cut up and gluing  them together now .Home Depot got in our bifold door today to go in between the bathroom /  laundry room. So she’s going to have another weekend  of staining again, she’s done it all.

Looks really nice!  Great work!

What are you doing on the ceiling for a finish?

Bathroom remodels are the worse.  When I did mine I could believe the hidden problems.  Previous remodel someone cut halfway through a bunch of floor joist to make way for plumbing.

However I did find a collect of various vintage beer cans from 50's tuck in wall.  This guy must have been a real pro.

I already repaired a floor joist where they  cut it and did hack repair and just nailed a 2 by 4 on it .
