Hi all,
Thought I would just start a little post of a bathroom reno we are doing. It is the "kids" bathroom in our PPOR. We have set a budget of about 5K. We had planned on doing it all ourselves, but have since decided to engage a tiler - although my hubby would have given it a go, it seemed like a lot of effort, since he is time poor, and it would have taken a long time as he was learning along the way (we have found www.renovateforum.com to be a little gold mine!)
What we have spent so far-
900mm Vanity (from auction) - $420
Towel rail, basin waste and mixer (from auction) - $90
2 x floor wastes- $35
Bath and Shower tapware - $150
Tiles and grout - $864
Tiler - $2000 (incl rebuild bath and shower hob, waterproofing, rescreeding and adhesive)
So far we have demolished the bathroom, retaining the bathtub as it was in good condition. The cement floor pad was down to bare earth in places, so that needed patching. The bath hob fell apart when the old tiles were removed, as did the shower hob, so they both needed re-building.
Some pics - gotta love the old yellow vanity....
More to come....
