Fuck these Fucking Fucks

[CGVT]

Hey! I finally got my last full bath done. I had some cracked tiles and of course, they don't make them anymore so I decided to take the floor up and put down new tile. I think it came out pretty good.

That's beautiful man. I wish I had the consistency to not screw up something like that. I'm too impatient and try to do everything too fast.

I’m the same. No patience for DIY stuff

We're trying to get our house on the market by July 1st. I've remodeled all three of the full baths, painted the master bedroom, kitchen, dining room, main hallway, laundry room, touched up my daughter's bedroom, and painted most of the trim and baseboards and working on the rest. I replaced about a third of my deck and need to stain it, touch up the paint in the other two bedrooms and do some general de-cluttering. I am getting our exterior brick painted and will need to touch up some exterior trim, stain the cement at the front entryway and pool deck. I have made pretty good progress but still have a shit-ton of work to do. A lot of it is piddly ass shit. It takes me a little longer than it used to get shit done but I think I can get it finished up in time

This is my daughter's bedroom. I still have to touch up the baseboards and closet doors and replace the gold door knobs.

I'll post a link to the listing when we get it on the market.

We did rip out the carpet in our Living and Dining Room and put in some engineered flooring. It looks great and I am pleasantly surprised we didn't mess something up!

I'll post some pictures later.

But to have the skill to do all those rooms top to bottom and have them look professionally done like that is really impressive to me.

Fantastic job on the bathroom. Loving the floor and those taps (faucets for jaadam....., and you I suppose! )

The basin counter (two basin version)......., was it heavy? Did someone help or were you cursing and slipping lower back discs getting that thing into place?

Just don't look too closely. ;)

If you mess something up what is worse that can happen (in most cases)? You might have to pay someone to come fix it, but you aren't much worse off than if you paid them in the first place. Ha!

I left the old counter tops in place. They were in pretty good shape and I didn't want the extra work or expense. I just changed out the taps and cleaned it up a bit.

BTW, I paid a guy to put this glass door in the shower in our master bath

Don't know about over there but that glass door set, (door & half panel) would set you back around £400 over here. What is the glass thickness?

And FTR, I always get the joiner / carpenter to install the shower enclosures on my jobs. I'll put trays down and do all drainage pipework etc, but wet-wall boarding and glass ------ >> Nae danger! And tiling?? Wow! definitely nae danger. Never attempt that after attempting it once and making an utter cunt of it.

And where you moving to? Local......, or are you doing that typical American thing and packing up and moving 12 states away?!

I'm sure it will be a good blue state where his neighbors might actually like him.

You can't win with a blue state.

It is 3/8 (about 10 mm?) I don't know what the parts cost, I just paid for the whole job. It cost about $1500.

Our youngest son will be going off to college this fall and we are downsizing and moving to the beach. We are moving to St Simons Island GA, about 475 miles east of us. My wife and I met in a little bar there and I took her away from the island when we got married. We have owned a little beach house there for about 15 years and have been looking forward to moving back. We'll pay off the house in GA when we sell this house and will be rid of two mortgages and may be able to actually get my wife retired. We will be living in my mother in law's house(she doesn't live there. Ha!) and paying for taxes, insurance and upkeep and continue to rent our house out.
I'm sure it will all be unicorns and rainbows when me move. Ha!
