A couple bath vanities - Contractor Talk - Professional Construction and Remodeling Forum

The cabinetry is not all that special but the baths sure turned out nice.

I wish I could capture the full effect of all the finishes. The tile and the showers in these baths are very impressive. No pics of the showers though, sorry

Both are very nice Gus.

I especially like the first. Still waiting on the mirror?

Very nice, Gus.

The first set is my personal favorite door style; simple shaker recessed panel with inset door!

Design looks simple, clean and elegant.

Love the backsplash in the second bath. I'll be doing 2 backsplashes next week that I'm very excited about.

Both look great, I prefer the second.

Yes, we have to remodel the door and send it out to finish. Then the GC will have a beveled mirror made.

We made a door already that the HO didn't like.

This is in the Granny unit by the way.

The first is Maple with a 20 to 1 white wash so it should stay somewhat white too.
The tile on the floor is not all that visible but evidently cost 65 bucks a foot. Looks awesome.

thanks for the kind words. The GC's are the real stars of these though.

Both are very nice . I was going to say I like 1 better , after a closer look I'm liking # 2 also . Either one equal the same result , quality work !

So they built Granny a bath around
"this" faucet.

But they don't like her enough to
buy the comfort height toilet.

Your case work is great, as usual.

I couldn't agree more about the toilet. I even mentioned how out of scale it looks. The owner made all those choices so what's a guy to do? This case you jump for joy when there is a desision made you can count on. Very difficult nailing down this HO for a desision on anything.

The toilet tank is about 3 inches from the wall. Of course I have to ask, WTF? GC shakes his head and says "plumber messed up and will be jacking the slab to move it closer "

Ouch. We were all in there several times getting a layout that the HO would buy off on. None of us caught it. Such a shame.

Nobody wants to use one of those offset wax ring thingys either. Oh well.

This is acually a guest house, no granny that I know of.

A new toilet would probably be cheaper, depending on how far out of whack it is. The Villeroy & Boch's have a bolt down trap you cut to get the toilet to fit back to the wall--it might be worth a look by your GC, unless they've already started

Nice work, Gus. I really like that first one.

I think they need close to three inches.

Knowing this owner a change in style to avoid work that costs nothing to her would be a tough sale. She is really nice just complicated
