Latest Kitchen/Bath

BattleRidge

So this is one of my first complete gut and redo on a kitchen and bath. I usually do new construction, and have done smaller scale remodels. What do you guys think?

Was the old toilet a wall mount tank? I hope you didn't chuck that!!

Looks pretty nice.

Nope, the old tub was probably the heaviest thing I have ever tried to move without a crane though. No joke. Talk about not expecting things, I pulled the trap off that sink and it was just packed and rusted. No one had lived in the house for 2 years, I was gunna check the rest. so took the pipe wrench to the elbow to takeit off and the pipe just crumbled all through the wall. It was all junk so had to redo it all.

No one ever told you how heavy those old cast iron tubs are? Best thing for those...sledge hammer, the little bits aren't so heavy then.

one of the house i reno the cast iron tub took 4 of us to move it, i dont know how the hell it got in the basement, must be the same way the pyramids was built

17x26 detach 100 yr old home, after i ripped out all metals, my scrap metal guy got close to $2000 for all, the Tub slammed his pickup

yeah good call, I wasnt impressed with the plumber but it was in the middle of nowhere so I had one choice. I called about 15 others and no one would come. So i wound up with a fenco attachment in the basement that leeked and it was not a good place for a it, I didn't know what would be better really so I couldnt tell him but in hind site I figured it out., a crooked sink I fixed. And a not hooked up fridge or dishwasher. I also had to take the shower handle off and flip it over.

Please note this can be very dangerous. You will need eye protection and we usually cover them with a blanket and hit the blanket. This keeps the schards from penetrating your skin and eyeballs.

I can imagine it being loud as schit as well. I hit it with a normal hammer and bout deafened myself.

Looks good.No Offense but, what did you gut and redo in the kitchen?? The tile, paint, fridge and cabs look updated. Did you have to take it down to the studs though?

that back left wall in the kitchen had a huge hole in it for a set back refridgerator reframed it then rehung the wall, then the exteriors had blow in insulation that we rebatted then rehung, the divider wall in the bath ripped out the exterior and reinsulated, then basically tore the other wall down behind the sink to replace the plumbing and electrical. So we left a few walls that we basically empty. We also redid the siffit with sheetrock instead of 3/8s ply I guess it was a 85% gut lol

What kind of camera/lens did you use to take the after pics? I like the perspective. That's one of the hardest things to do with a regular old digital camera is to get the entire room in a single frame.

Ok, cool. Just curious cuz the basic structure looked the same. Didnt know if you had to demo rock or not, lights are all in the same locale and stuff in the kitchen. Good job!

Nikon D1H with a sigma 10 to 18mm wide angle.

Not to bust in on a thread, but, I have an older Nikon CoolPix 4300 camera and bought a wide angle lens for it. You can actually get an entire bathroom in 1-2 shots, not 4-5 with a regular lens.
