After finishing up the major projects on the 1st floor of our lovely mellow yellow 2-flat, it is now a respectable apartment. So, we decided to move on down to the 1st floor, leaving room for us to start on the 2nd floor projects. Currently, Baby cat has full reign of the 2nd floor, and that's how she likes it.
So, the first project to tackle is the bathroom. Tom's sister Eileen has helped out on her days off (thanks Eileen!). Days 1 and 2 consisted of ripping up the old tile, removing the tile around the tub, and then removing the tub.
Bye bye old tub and floor tile...good riddance. Oh, and please don't ask about the several shades of blue on the wall. I can't pick out an acceptable paint color to save my life.
Yeah, that black stuff on the floor is probably mold. We (hopefully) took care of that with a nice bleach solution.
Tommy and Eileen got a little overzealous and tore out half a wall of drywall too. Demo is fun!
But, now the old tub is gone and new plywood has been laid under the toilet/sink area. Oh, and that gray stuff is cellulose insulation, not dust. Actually, it might be dust.
