We got a nice deal on the nicest tub/shower door that Lowes had. Their last one at the 35% off store closing price. It's a Kohler Sterling, which is the same brand as the tub.... recommended by our plumber for it's caulkless design.

What the...

Well, what CAN we make you buy, then?

Your life will be empty without in-floor radiant heat. Yeah, that's the ticket.

That's what I want! Do you have any specific recommendations?

I uploaded some new photos to the galleries.

Today, we took down all the tile in the bathroom, and took down most of the ceiling in the pantry to allow the plumber an even better look at how to best do the plumbing for the bathroom above. I think we took 12-14 barrels of demo stuff to the dump.

Tomorrow, we remove the old kitchen sink, attempt to build new counters to hold the new sink, and apply laminate.

Monday, the plumber starts!

Really enjoying this thread, Mark. I watch all that "This Old House" stuff on PBS and the "Holmes" stuff on HGTV. There is great irony here since I have never owned, and will never own, a home of my own. Adding to the irony if the fact that I am the least handy man in the world. I would find what you are doing much too daunting to even attempt. Thanks for the photos.
