Finished product501 viewsHere's a view of much of the right side of the room. We installed a new ceramic floor (which this is about the best glimpse of that these pictures show), new toilet, a safety grab-bar for the toilet, and repainted the baseboard heat register. We also made some repairs to the vanity bottom to make it look and work better (Mom's still deciding if she wants new drawer pulls -- they match some other ones elsewhere in the house)

During: New tub surround460 viewsHere's the rear of the tub area. As you can see, we removed the old tile from the entire bathroom, and were able to avoid putting in new sheetrock outside of the tile area (once we cleaned up a bit better after this picture).

"Before" picture: Mirror and light458 viewsHere's another picture of the old flourescent light fixture. The three wall switches control an overhead light, vent fan, and heater, but not the flourescent light.

"Before" picture: Vanity and Countertop453 viewsThe old countertop was a 1960's faux-marble formica. The mirror was in great condition and we salvaged it.
