Bathroom Remodel

Well, our bathroom remodel is going alright I guess, I've been banished from the room because of a small amount of mold while Rob tears the old tile and drywall down.

It's proving interesting because whoever did this bathroom before used definitely the WRONG kind of drywall that one would use in a bathroom and the tile is coming off with very little effort (it should not be this easy)

Then, while taking more tile down he understood very quickly why the stud finder was not locating studs very well.  It's a makeshift wall (wait until you see the pictures) and very shoddy work.  However, we're not going to mess with it, just get the correct drywall up, the right insulation installed, the kerdi and correct vapour barrier up and then retile.

I am craving chinese food like you would not believe.  I wonder if Rob is up for the idea....?

We'll be going to Port Elgin likely tomorrow to get more supplies.

Still trying to figure out how to make this blog private, so my postings are not much right now.

  1. I don't think it can be made private... I found this, which you've probably already read:

    Over here, we just have cement walls (made from cinderblocks, solid concrete columns, and cover with cement, too) so we can use either a special glue or a mortar, sort of cement stuff, to glue tiles to a wall.
