        @neph93 this is an older home in the old downtown area. Old enough to have brick walls and gravel floors in the basement. It's a duplex and the other side can be rented out. There has been a whole lot of renovations since The Wonderful Lorie Love bought it.

            Not sure if this counts? But here is my contribution since I am required to wear FR rated clothing for work.

                That car pic is brilliant [emoji38] Excellent work @Nkwkfld  It’s a fairly crappy job to do, I know. What are your plans for the floor now?

                  We like the tiles they had covered up with other tiles (?) and will leave them for now while other work commences. Where carpet was removed there are now baseboards that are in mostly good shape so once other work has finished they’ll be sanded and oiled. With this house we just moved into it’s firstly a case of getting rid of a lot. One of the next jobs is peeling off textured wallpaper that has been painted over.

                    Second trip to the dump and an update on the 888’s in sunlight. Brought home the big mirror from the dump for £5.

                      Beautiful dining room! That built in dresser in the corner is stunning. The mirror looks good too.

                                      Looks like a hell of a job, Adam! Are you installing a rain shower head as well? The tile looks great so far!

                                        It's actually going well @Chris - It's been a journey. The original shower had a 400lb mortar pan which I upgraded to Schluter pans, removed the oversized spa tub and moved the plumbing from the tub to having double drains in the shower, and sadly no rain shower head @Clint_D - that little joist notch was for the original wall, which I removed and built a more robust larger stud wall to take the shower from 44x36 to 44 x 80 🙂

                                        It's been a process as the exterior studs are not super plum, so there are some humps I've had to level out - and big tile does not necessarily make bumpy walls easier, but in the end it will be sweet. We will have two shower heads on opposing sides of the shower (One oversized and one wand style). Lots of waterproofing happening as well, which just means layers and layers of seem taping and mortaring for me lol

                                          Sounds like it's going to be great when you get it finished.  Double shower heads are fantastic, btw. When we were building our house, we did it because the builder suggested them, but I didn't realize how much use we'd get out of them.

                                            Good call on the Schluter stuff!  I've never gotten a chance to use any personally but I've heard nothing but good things.  The extra real estate in the shower will be well worth all of the hard work!
