Elisabeth's Bathroom

Elisabeth's tiny master bathroom measured about 6' x 8'. Built in the 1950's, it has a single vanity, toilet, shower, and small linen closet:






The shower is so small, Elisabeth cannot even wash her hair with both arms at the same time without hitting the wall!



Solution: We removed the fur down in the shower and over the vanity; removed the wall that is on the left side of the shower; changed the size of the shower by stealing from the linen closet; built a taller vanity with a centered sink; and changed all the surfaces:








The result: a beautiful updated master bath!

Lois' Bathroom- The Shower

Lois felt like her bathroom was small, but unfortunately, there no where from which to steal space. To help it feel larger, there are two things we are doing: (1) removing the fur down in the shower;and (2) making the wall and doorway between the toilet and the tub into a half wall. Here is the before:


After removing the fur down in the shower: (notice also there is a little bit of wall that we can use to make the shower a tad longer and on the opposite side we will replace part of the wall with glass for a larger feel.)

We have also installed Hardie backerboard and sealed it with Red Gard. Hardie will not mold or burn, great product!
