Bathroom Reno #5: Soaking It Up
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? Let’s Try This Bathroom…

11:27, admittedly, floor-to-ceiling pebbled tile sounds pretty terrible, but there are plenty of bathrooms that are quite beautiful that are not pages out of the Restoration Hardware catalog.
Yep, our trouble making, tiny url posting, past thread cut and paster, is back. Too bad.
i like it. i do have an issue with sinks with no cabinets underneath them, but given the size of the room, think this was a good decision here.
also, note to anyone who will listen – always leave room to get the tub faucets and always do one bathroom with a shower curtain like this for people with small children.
saw too many places with glass shower doors combined with toilets right next to the tub. creates a really difficult problem for those with little ones. if you’re kid is under 2, can’t bathe them!
Aesthetically, not really my taste–but man am I jealous of having a huge tub AND huge shower. (My entire apt. could almost fit in this bathroom…Sigh.)
Is there something screwy going on with this thread? It sounds like a few people are responding to a comment that I’m not seeing… Also, I could swear that a few of the comments above are *verbatim* repeats of comments made on earlier bathroom reno postings…
owner here again. yes, storage space is an issue, but we are fortunate to have a ridiculous amount of kitchen cabinet space, and one of our lower cabinets is devoted to medicine, toilet paper, extra shampoos, nail stuff, etc. Only daily use stuff is kept in the cabinet above the toilet. And we have a linen closet right outside the bathroom. so for us, it works. but i get how a pedestal isn’t for everyone…we just wanted to keep the space as open as possible since it’s still a pretty small bathroom.
not my taste. actually, this pains me a little. nice to have a bath and shower though.
The general placement of the pipes, except where they service the jacuzzi, may be original, but they look pretty new on my screen. Why put them elsewhere if the original positioning is fine? They are still “in the wall”. I don’t get your comment, 11:17. Also this is not redecorating. That would be changing the curtains and getting new towels and wastebasket. This is not a restoration, but it certainly qualifies as a renovation. Not my personal taste, but certainly worlds better than what they had before.
11:17 – what pipes outside the wall?
If I had that jacuzzi I’d have to cancel my Netflix.
