Mommy, there is a leak in playroom!
Three years ago we started having a few drip occasionally in our playroom from the upstairs bathroom. Recently it got worse and we called in the plumber. Once it was discovered that it was not a plumbing issue, it turned into a tiling problem. The tiling people said that it would need a drywaller, and then a tiler. Which would cost about $2000+. This is how much water collected after 2 showers in the main bathroom.

So we did it ourselves...$120 and one pissed off Mommy/Wife.
Colin demoed 75% and Painted 75%
After demoing we found the wall had deteriorated so I made a wall with expanding foam. |
I installed a water barrier. |
Then came the tiles. |
Then the grout but found that Colin had not demoed enough, so demoed and replaced the grout on the third wall. |
The molding looked terrible. It was chipped and peeling so we had to sand, prime and paint. |
Then we sealed it. |
I also sanded and painted the baseboard heater and
Colin cleaned the bathroom. Teamwork!
Now we are having a tap issue, it is spraying back at the tile. Argh, here we go again!
