So started on demo of that bathroom I need to redo.
Long story short, the was ring on the toilet failed, causing terrible odor in the house. So once I yanked the toilet, decided it was time to remodel the bathroom. We knew we were going to do it, but it's what just pushed us over the edge.
So today I started to rip up the sheet vinyl floor and get rid of the useless pocket door that was in there.
Figured out :
1) the one section of floor is about 1/8"-1/4" lower than the other side. (bad)
2) the water pipes come down from the ceiling. (good)
3) that wall is in no way load bearing. (good)
So, the plan now is to yank out that entire shower stall and replace it with a glass 3 sided shower with wall tile. Should be easy to move the plumbing to one of the other walls.
And I'll yank up most of the floor and completely level and replace it it and put down some vinyl plank flooring that looks like wood.
New toilet with all the bells and whistles too.
We're going to consider it to be practice for when we do the master bathroom later.
