We Have a Finished Floor!

May 23, 2012- The grout is in! Last night I was able to grout the entire floor. It is coming along nicely. I am really happy with the look of it. Tonight or tomorrow I will seal the grout lines, then call it done. Next up is painting, some trim work and then tiling the shower. Vanity and linen closet are in the works and will be installed in about 3 weeks. Then another two weeks for the countertop and sink to be installed. Progress, while slow, is still progress!

We Have a Floor!

May 22, 2012- A couple weeks ago I started by laying the orange subfloor. That was a super easy process and I didn't have to worry about having a perfectly level floor. Since then, it has taken a few evening to get the rest of the tile cut and laid. Last night I put the last pieces in place.




Straight lines so far!

The final pieces are in place!

Tonight will be the grouting of the entire floor, and then on to the shower!

Almost Ready to Tile

May 7, 2012- This past weekend saw some great progress. The entire room is mudded, sanded and now primed. Last night I cut the subfloor material I will be using under the floor tile. Now tonight I need to mix up some thinset, mud the floor and apply the material. Should be a fun, hopefully non-messy project. Then it is time to tile the floor so the cabinet maker can get in and measure what he needs to.

I am having a painter come in to paint the ceiling and do a knock down finish. Need to get that done soon so I can move to tiling the shower once the floor is done.

Progress... as slow as it may be is still progress.
