New Bathroom update page 162

So today is the day Hubbie starts the new bathroom and already a problem the bath turned up with holes drilled for taps but we are having a bath fill 🤦🙄he’s already moaning saying it’s my fault as I said let’s get the bathroom designed & they’ve messed it up

He’s done 2 other bathrooms for us before this one is more work 😬
He’s doing electrics today, extractor fan & the pump
His new best friend, Tom you would be so pleased is Screwfix & Toolstation
I’m on tea making duty & calling B&Q to complain, but at least we haven’t got a fitter to delay
This could take a while as we already agreed he’s going to take his time
See you all on the other side 🤞🤞🤞
Thankfully we have a garage to store it all
I’m scared & stressed 😩😩😩might have to walk to town for Costa if it gets messy 🍰☕️😋

Claire. Nothing wrong with the old one!

Frustrating that the wrong bath has arrived but that should be swapped out in a few days max. If not play holy hell with them.

Best of luck for the new installation.

As an aside if your Husband needs any plumbing gear Wolseley are excellent.

Oh Claire I know how you feel. We’re in the process of renovating ours. Completely gutted it, and I still can’t make my mind up about what tiles/toilet to get.

Good luck with B&Q, I hope you get it sorted and yes you definitely deserve a Costa and cake.

Exciting! I will watch with great interest. We have been holding off renovating our bathroom and en suite due to adding a loft conversion. Now we have decided not to do the loft conversion we can get cracking on the bathrooms. I’ve added it to my husbands ever growing list of jobs 😂

At least your bathroom items are stored in the garage, mine are under the bed, under the drawers in my room and in any other available inch in the house! I think it will be a long time before they are done so I’ll watch yours eagerly instead!

Thanks Tom
Who knew the tiles he put down over 10 years ago were so hard to get up 🤦😬☹️😩
Looks like he’s here for the day 😳
But the extractor fan is wired in ok it’s so quiet so hope it works ok 🤞

Claire.

He needs to nip to HHS Hire and get a concrete breaker. £40 ish for the day and it will rip that floor up in 30 minutes. Not the type of tool you maybe buy as they are £400 to £1000 for a good one but my God they rip through stuff.

Edit. I like that fan, very smart.
