Our new Bathroom

So below are the before and after pictures of our bathroom Renovation. It looks awesome now, and feels like a completely different bathroom. The pictures of the bathroom before don't really show how bad it really was- it was really disgusting, so take a look.








The bathroom before the renovation had a very disgusting dirty bath liner, which was just held on by just glue basically. The tub was old but wasn't in horrible shape, the toilet was gross and old as well, and all around the bathroom were teal and black tiles on the wall, which were done very poorly and were also very dirty and disgusting. Before the renovation the walls would always get this brownish stuff on the walls- Joe says it is because the man who lived in the house before us most likely smoked in there, and the walls were just horrible because of that. There was an ugly mirror/medicine cabinet in there, as well as an ugly light fixture and an old cheap cabinet. I don't have a picture of the floors but they were the cheap peel and stick flooring type of thing. The worst thing about the bathroom was the plumbing the electrical- Joe had to replace all the plumbing and all the electrical in the bathroom. Nothing was done to code and Joe was shocked of how bad it really was. There was also no fan in the bathroom which was a real pain. Now take a look of what the bathroom looks as of today.











As you can see there is quite the difference. We started by ripping everything out, and I mean everything. Joe replaced all the plumbing and electrical like I said before, he installed a fan to vent outside, and we put all new drywall up. After that we installed a brand new bath tub, we tiled around the bath which we both love- and considering it was Joe and my self's first time tiling we did an excellent job. I found the tiles at Rona- and Iam so happy of how they turned out. After that we installed the laminate hard wood flooring- which is almost the exact colour as our real hard wood in the rest of the house. We did tile originally however we hated how it looked so we ripped it up. It looks so much better with the laminate, and very clean looking. We then got the toilet installed, as well as the vanity and medicine cabinet- they are all in a nice dark chocolate brown. Joe then installed the fixtures for the shower and vanity. We went with quality Moen fixtures - the shower head it amazing...amazing water pressure and water coverage. We then painted the walls a nice lavender like colour- it's call winter coco. I then bought a nice shower curtain, flower hooks, a bathmat, to go with the colours of the room.
