Bathroom Remodel Business Office 4: Tiling The Floor

In my last bath remodel post, nosotros tackled tiling the shower amongst white tube tile. This calendar week nosotros tiled the shower flooring amongst the Vermont slate tile nosotros picked upwards at the quarry last month, therefore continued the tile onto the shower curb together with floor.

First nosotros cutting our 9"x 12" tiles into smaller 3" 10 3" squares, therefore seat downwards mortar together with began placing them.



When the base of operations was covered nosotros moved to the within walls of the shower curb.

The flooring came next, together with nosotros used 9" 10 12" tiles.

Next nosotros tiled the shower curb.

And here's the sentiment of the other side of the room, equally seen from the shower. We likewise added a tile baseboard instead of using wood, together with I actually similar the agency it turned out.





The adjacent stride is to grout all of the tile. We'll role white grout for the tube tile together with a gray for the Vermont slate. When the grout is dry, we'll role a solution to build clean the tile, therefore add together a sealer to protect them from H2O together with wear. The sealer volition likewise select out the coloring together with texture of the slate, therefore I'm looking forwards to seeing how it turns out.

Our radiator inwards the bath was likewise a mess, amongst chipping pigment together with rusty patches. We used a wire brush chip on a drill to scrape/sand the quondam chipping paint, therefore gave the radiator a coat of novel glossy grey. Here's what it looked similar before:



And here's what it looks similar today.

There's withal a long agency to become inwards the bathroom, precisely later on this calendar week I select to acknowledge nosotros are pretty proud of ourselves :) No, it's non perfect, precisely it's a huge improvement over what nosotros had before. The tiling is a huge step, together with 1 time the grout together with seal are inwards identify nosotros tin select the shower drinking glass installed (the 1 stride nosotros are hiring out), therefore select the toilet, sink, lite fixture, together with wall cabinets in. It feels similar nosotros are therefore close, together with yet there's withal therefore much to do!
