• Bath flipped, tiles going up, brick slips going on…

    Discovered the first big fuck-up on my part; I miscalculated the width of the central pier, so the brick slips didn’t line up. Had to get the angle grinder out to re-jig the entire picture window aperture 40mm to the left.

    Another side effect is we will now have a single column of bricks under the picture window that will be 30mm narrower than the rest… gonna make my eye twitch into eternity sozlol.

  • I'm sure it's planned, but make sure you have a removable tiled access panel for under the bath.

  • So much better for the flip. You could probably hear the expletives when I drilled the first pilot hole for my taps in the wrong side of our bath. It only gets me angry every time I go in there.
    The shower wand does sit straight honestly.

  • Looking lovely. What are the tiles?

  • Wait. You planned this all by yourself? With an architectural technician/structural engineer for the technical stuff? Or do you have a background in the field or layman? If layman quite impressive. And if so, yes, expect more fuckups..;) even the pros (..err, me) do.
