 Our DIY Master Bathroom Reno!

My husband and I have been working on our master bath for about 5 months now, doing a bit every weekend. Most of the stuff was ordered online, and we hired out for the window replacements and to move the cast iron clawfoot tub upstairs (500 pounds empty!).

The before shots (taken at our house inspection):









And the after!:

Wow, nice job!

Sorry to ask, but from your inspection pics, was that broadloom in the bathroom? Why oh why does anyone put carpet in one of the most bacteria infested areas of a house!!

Evilmena.... beats me! Plus the toilet was in a separate tiny room with a door (which became a second walk-in). Ah the 80's!

We removed the carpet I think within the week we moved and installed temporary stick on tiles until we started doing the renos!

BEAUTIFUL!

We are putting a cast iron clawfoot in our bathroom when we renovate it too. We don't have room for a double slipper like your though frown

Looks great. Are your windows frosted, or did you put up a frosted coating on them?
