Is that not ridiculous? She was the first and only so far, I hope it stays that way! The customer thought she was a designer, who am I to argue?

I am about to ask if that is an urinal device for a sitting woman or for a standing man, but then CCR points out it as a drinking fountain, I am in shock, ...Unbelievable!!. (Tap water is not that good to be drink after all.. and stooping low to sip?..).

When Kohler first started marketing bidets in the USA, they were calling them 'foot baths' in their ads.

They still say they can be used as a foot bath.

Did you personally install that MTI glass enclosure in the second bath? How was it to work with?

What's that vertical strip to the left of the vanity over the half wall? Why is the wall tile layout off over the vanity, in relation to the shower walls?

Why the return air grill behind the toilet?

Some constructive criticism:

You should have pushed the floor layout toward the door a little. That floor corner seam to the left of the toilet is a little wide--especially with the light colored grout.

You might consider a diverter for the handspray in the future. Having it come off the shower arm makes it look a little less attractive (like a hotel).

I'm assuming there's a rain head in the ceiling fed by the second valve.

Did the HO provide the tile in the first bath? Was wondering about the large format tile on the shower pan.

Yes, I installed the doors, it was one of the easiest doors to install.

The white strip was a temp cover for an exposed edge, there was a problem with the order and we were waiting for V-cap, the V-cap is needed becuase there was a bump of for the vanity wall becuase orig. the HO was dead set on a recessed med. cab. but then after it was installed wanted it changed !!!

The vent behind the toilet is actually an old off size register.

I line is that big becuase the floor dipped about 3/16 as it backed into the corner, and as i brought the tile across the line grew, it isnt as big as it looks, i guess its partly the camera angle and partly needed to be wiped better, it took many many wipes to get all the grout haze off.

There was a diverter in the origional plans, but it did not work with the look the HO was looking for, so they opted for that.

Yea there is actually a fill in the ceiling, but it is not a rain, it kinda just comes down in a solid stream.

and the large tile in the first bathroom was horrible, customer supplied, and was not fun to work with at all!!!
