Why Does Everything Have to Turn Into a Project?
One of the items near the top of the list of things to do/fix/replace/etc to get the house ready to sell was the master bathroom. Over the years some of the grout in the shower had disintegrated to the point that several tiles were loose. So, we knew we had to do a bit of regrouting. How hard could that be?
Well, call it Murphy's Law or whatever you want, but what we had originally thought would be a relatively minor task almost immediately turned into a major project. While prodding a couple of the loose tiles with my finger, they fell completely off the wall to reveal a nasty mess of soggy wallboard hiding behind the ceramic. Doh!
Enter the good folks over at American Bath. In 3 days they did what probably would have taken me 3 weeks. They totally gutted the bathroom (including the walls and subflooring), hung new Durock cement board (the original builder had apparently used ordinary drywall), installed a new shower pan and fixtures, replaced the shower door and re-tiled the shower and the entire bathroom floor.
