Thanks so much for all the complimen...Hi everyone!<br /><br />Thanks so much for all the compliments and feedback. To answer a few questions:<br /><br />1. The remodel cost about 5K. We did all the labor ourselves, as well as refinishing all the salvaged items. We also milled the flooring, designed and fabricated the medicine cabinet and vanity (and toilet seat.) It was a complete gut renovation due to water and termite damage, so much of the cost was in new floor joists and wall studs. And we splurged on the toilet (about $700.)<br /><br />2. The vanity, flooring, and toilet seat are Ash, which is a wood species that naturally works well in high moisture environments. The flooring has a natural ebonizing solution (vinegar + steel wool) with a flooring grade satin poly finish. The vanity and toilet seat have the natural ebony solution, topped with a black pigment. The vanity has poly on top of that, and then a waxed finish on top of that. The wax helps the water bead up, and we wipe the surface clean after we splash. The wax will need reapplied every so often. I probably wouldn't do this finish in a children's bathroom, but so far it is working out fine for us. The sink was just a clearance item from an online distributor, nothing fancy.<br /><br />3. We actually didn't decide to use salvaged items for the cost savings. In my experience, any money you save on a salvaged item will go right back into labor for refinishing/repairing/maintenance on the item. But we wanted to keep within the existing style of the house, and we like the idea of keeping old windows/doors/tubs/etc. out of the landfill, so it made sense for us.<br /><br />Happy to answer any other questions. Thanks again for the feedback!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16242078265363916458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2106620262041679670.post-53670479379553282812011-03-07T13:40:01.516-06:002011-03-07T13:40:01.516-06:00Wow!!
