the great bathroom remodel

I wasn’t going to post today, but my 2nd out of 3 shoots for today cancelled (rescheduled actually) due the yet again crappy weather. So I’m home for a little bit and figured I’d post something for everyone else home and bored on another yucky day. Not that my blog is that exciting, but it’s something to read for 5 minutes.

When we did our house extension back in 2001 or so, we never did the main upstairs bathroom. It didn’t really need it and we were running out of money fast! But recently it started leaking into the kitchen so we knew we couldn’t put it off any longer. So we got started on the ‘great bathroom remodel’. So glad we did!!

Before:


during:Gary, our awesome GC!!I’m a little obsessed with our glass accent tile. And after: It still needs a little something on the wall for decoration, but I have yet to decide what that something is.

If you are in the market for any kind of home renovation, I highly recommend our GC, Gary Casaceli. He was fast, CLEAN!!, nice, careful and very reasonable. You can contact him at 516.672.3985.

We used George from Reliable Painting who was also reasonable and did a good job 516.867.4767. He also did the kitchen ceiling which was all patched with new sheetrock. The color is Timberwolf from Benjamin Moore.

C&L Plumbing Supply in Lynbrook was where we got all the stuff where Lisa was great and helpful 516.599.6655, and Turnabout Plumbing did all of the plumbing 516.887.4411.

New York Shower Door for the glass doors 516.379.3535

Tile from Cancos in Lynbrook 516.593.5117.

And the lights over the medicine cabinets (btw, love those medicine cabinets- they are huge and mirrory!!) are from Restoration Hardware.

Hope you give the above guys some business. They were all really great, especially Gary!
