Remodel job

Shawn and I (mainly Shawn) have been working on my mom's bathroom for a little over a month now. My parents have lived in the same house for almost 32 years and some things just need redoing. The bathroom had sustained water damage about 7 or 8 years ago and the work was only halfway done because the insurance company didn't want to actually pay what needed to be spent. So, a year and a half ago we had given my mom the new towel bars and flooring for Christmas, but had never gotten around to installing any of it because we were trying to figure out what to do with the sink and cabinet. To get an equivalent cabinet would cost a lot more money than anyone was willing to part with, so we decided to fix up the existing cabinet and my mom bought a new sink and faucet. We painted the cabinet, put in a new bottom to the cabinet (it had rotted away due to water damage), and put on new hardware. While installing the sink and faucet, Shawn added shut-off valves for the water because they had never been installed before (bad plumber way back when).

This is the sink once installed.



This is what the cabinet looked like with new paint and hardware.



We installed new wallboard to make the bath tub area look better. We also put in a new soap dish. In addition we re-caulked around the tub.



Then we put in the new towel bars, tp holder, and shower curtain rod. This is the double towel bar next to the tub. There is also a towel bar over the toilet.



My mom decided the lovely 70's era light was not making things look good anymore and bought a new light fixture. We discovered bad electricians work (the light box was barely attached to anything so we put in a new one, not fun) and installed the new light after lots of trial and error.



Then after the new paint job and all other work was done we put in the new flooring and shoe molding. Then the new shoe molding got painted.



This is a shot of most of the work from the doorway.

We also painted the door and door casing to make them look like the rest of the room. Then we painted the frame for the mirrored medicine cabinet. All in all, it looks like a completely different room that doesn't look anything like the rest of the house.
