Mike and John are doing my bathrooms. Mike is a like the zen master when it comes to this kind of stuff. Here are a few pics of the half bath that is just about done. And the full bath they are putting sheet rock up on. It was a fun job removing 2 inches of Concrete with wire lath and 1950s tiles.
We thank you both for your hard work. If anyone needs work done Mike is the man.

Who's your electrician . I see an empty box in there ;D

Look harder, you don't see a GFCI in there? ;D


Ed. Show the pics of the piles and contractor bags full of concrete walls and floors that you and John had to remove.
These guys busted their back removing an inch and half concrete walls and two inches on the floors, with Wire Mesh.
When I talk to John or Ed on the job now, I say "Sir, can you Please help me lift this or that. ;D " They have new muscles in places that they never knew existed.

Ed and Jen. It's always a pleasure working for yous.

Looks good guys! When you were telling me about the concrete I didn't even think about wire! My back aches for you.
 
I know all about the concreteand wire mesh. When I did my bathroom I was tossing all the crap out the window, when I was done I was left with a pile 6ft high x 9 ft long. I said to my self, self just call someone to clean it up, and I listened to myself. Took the guy 5 hours to haul it away.

That sounds like the size of this pile. Plus we carried out about 80 to 100 salt buckets filled with rubble in addition to the big chunks that we were able to throw out the window.

And I don't care what Mike says, he's still the "Sir" in this operation. The guy is a complete artist when it comes to this stuff. The best I've seen for sure.

I never reliazed how doing bathrooms would be so stressfull. I so need to go back for Aruba. So for this week I've kicking my front door in (cause the lock broke) I tried to climb in a window and couldn't cause I'm too fat.

Today I got into a screaming match with a Director on the Job.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH is all I have to say.
