Here’s another complete gut renovation for you. In this case, the owners spent about $3,700 on the fixtures, tiles and lighting and another $1,800 on the shower enclosure. (The labor was part of a larger renovation.) How many of you have both a tub and a separate shower in your bathroom?

  1. back to the original question, my apartment has separate bath and shower in the master bathroom. it wasn’t our choice – it came that way – and it is a nice renovation with a nice jacuzzi tub, but i don’t use it enough to make it worth the lost space.

  2. 12:23 PM,
    It’s called a quick-vent or a pro-vent and it allows air to follow water down a pipe for more effective drainage.

    A much better way to do this is to connect the fixture vent piping to the building vent stack.
    That’s what it’s there for (the vent stack, every building has one) and that’s the right way to do it. What’s shown in the photo is an easy way to lower the initial job price while adding maintenance.

  3. There is a mechanical plumbing vent on the tub piping. NYC plumbing code does not allow that device.

    Where they are allowed and used, they are installed where they can be accessed and replaced as necessary.
    When they fail (inevitably), they let vapors and gases from the drain piping escape into the walls creating mold and odors.

    You might want to look into that.

  4. It’s true: Some loser is actually taking the time to copy remarks from old posts and paste them into today’s related posts (at least his reading comprehension is pretty good…) Wowwww. To have your time be of so little value….

    Wonder how his addition, subtraction, and fine motor skills (aside from whacking off) are coming along?

  5. “i do have an issue with sinks with no cabinets underneath them”
    do you not see the storage cabinets under the sink?

    lovely job OP…something to be proud of no matter what people around here say.

  6. “It’s just as well. This thread doesn’t belong on this site in the first place.”

    who’s the idiot with this ridiculous comment?

    if you know ANYTHING about this site you would know that it started as a renovation blog and still is. so a bathroom renovation most definitly belongs here. idiot.
