Sweet floor Josh!!!!

Kato, I think ima hire you to do my shower, lol

 

Kato,

Pics looks like they belong in a magazine. Great shots of some really clean work.

 

Kato, I'm gonna print those off and throw em in my portfolio.... cool with u??

 

Love the recessed lights in shower! Amazing work!

 

Does the glass have 45 miters? It has a cleaner look or maybe it's just the angle of camera shot

 

Yes, recessed pots in the shower, we framed into the attic over the trusses and insulated. Rain shower head supply is in there also.

No mitred corners on the glass. Mmmmmmmmm, maybe next one I'll try that.

At the start of this job the HO spec'd as close to perfect as possible. I asked him if we were talking 1/16" tolerances or microns. He thought about it for a minute and said no more than 1/16" would be acceptable. :w00t::shutup::laughing:

 

So just another average job is what your saying.

 

yeah cant stand them ENGINEFEARS...........they know to much and cant even turn a screw with a screw driver.:whistling:whistling



Just to make you guys laugh. My step brother is a engineneer for pratt and whitney. Aircraft kid pretty smart. it takes him almost 2 hours to change oil in his truck. He will pull the plug drain it. Then jack it up in different angle to try and get all the oil out before putting the plug back in and adding oil.

 

Dang, I thought I was particular about letting alla oil drain out.

 

Very nice work Katoman. :thumbsup: I love the look of the solid curb, I often use solid curb sill material, but never thought to wrap the entire curb in solid material. arty: You had to love installing that. I hate it when the customer wants double bullnose on top of the curb. :bangin:

 

Shaving niche. Keep it quiet. Its the next big thing.

 

On a side note, I'm really loving that my sills are coming in w/ HUGE craters in them from where they were cut and the place I'm subbed out from who supplies the material won't spring to have them filled by the granite guy. "Hey Josh, just fill them in w/ grout" WTF?! $85 a square foot you are charging these people and you leave huge craters in them for me to deal w/ half assed? Jesus!! I've been filling them in w/ sanded and then matching as close as I can w/ unsanded over the sanded. Better than huge holes, but still not even close to right. That crap is really pissing me off.

 

That Sounds like some lazy BS(0n the granite peoples behalf)
I hope those shaving niches don't catch on! Don't let hgtv see those!

 

I didn't mind too much, but it was a lot of precise work down low and that is always a pain in a little shower.

 

Looks great. Too bad about the granite, I get my shelves made from cultured granite, marble.... whatever. I know it's not true granite but I'm surprised at the quality and NEVER have had a problems like that.

But looks good!

 

I guess that's the nature of the beast w/ Travertine.

 

Next shower I do. I found glass corner shelfs for twenty bucks in stock premade. I can't stand hole is stone anymore. that bathroom rocks too man

 

Anybody using Corian or the like for sills and shelves?

 

Just a quick bathroom for a friend we did last week.

 

looks good craig.................BUT ya said it was for friend can ya put the damn toliet back for the guy he keeps coming here to take a dump:w00t::w00t:


looks good man ...that floor looks like it had seen its share of the era

 

They have the plummer coming to put the fixtures in this weekend. I left them a 5gal bucket till then so i dont know why he's coming to you!! Maybe he cant figure out how to flush it.

House was from the 30's. 2in of mud on the floor and walls. Made for a fun demo. My guys hated me.
If you look close ,the studs on the back and left wall are sideways so no depth for the niches. Thats why we had to put the 2 niches and footrest on the right wall.

We raised the shower head and the niches really high cause he is 6'4" and she is 5'9".

It was fun doing this one. Nice break from the commercial work.Actually had to think for a bit! And it was 5min from the house.:thumbsup:

 

Here's the demo....

 

someone must have taken a DUMP in there to blow that mud job apart:whistling:whistling


i notice ya dont have on OSHA shoes flip flops

 

Just a quick bathroom for a friend we did last week.

Looks like a fun cut on that bottom niche! nice job!

I'm finally going to be doing a job in a 1980 house soon.....I seem to always get the 1950s homes that you have to demo like yours.......that's the worst part of the job!

 

Just finished up this one....I swear that's all I do anymore is the American Orleans subway....good price but tired of seeing it

 

Nice. That door opening right into the toilet like that?


Very retro.

 

Haha....good eye! Ya she wanted it moved, but the old floor is that 4" mud base and would just require too much to move....the old tub was about 3ft further in the room before....really small bath.....just took up a closet To build the shower. Of course didn't have the camera on demo day!
