Seasons greetings!
Andy had a target to get our bathroom plumbed before Christmas.
And he only went and got it done a month before!
It's so nice not having to go outside to the toilet or for a shower; especially as it's started getting cold again.
I managed find some matt black floor tiles and very similar matt black mosiac tiles for the shower. Andy waterproofed the shower area and sprayed the chrome shower unit black.
We rented a digger for him to dig up the ground and lay the new waste pipe and connected it the old waste. We have talked about replacing the whole thing and if we should do it now and come back and do it at a later date and we decided to do the later.
We had a little mishap with the shower pump in that it decided to die! Luckily screwfix replaced it for us and we paid a bit more to get a better one that's a lot quieter and has better reviews.
The suite was put in; including the pièce de résistance - my bath! I've been celebrating with lots of baths!
Andy is going to take it easy between now and the new year - I think he deserves it!
He has started building the brick wall that will separate the living room and second bedroom. A few blog posts back we bought some reclaimed bricks to do this and they've been sitting outside waiting!
There probably won't be any other updates this year. So from ours to yours, have a smashing Christmas and new year!
