Remodeling - Upstairs Bathroom Rough-In

Last we left the Upstairs Bathroom, there were multiple holes in the walls with plumbing everywhere.  Then came the rerouting of everything.

Shower Rough-in
First, the plumber came in and moved the shower drain, the pipes for the shower and vanity, removed the tub plumbing and routed it over to where the washer/dryer would be located.  There was a bit of rerouting of electrical and moving the dryer circuit.  They even pulled up some of the floor.

Then they put in some walls.  Apparently, they now use a cement board in the showers instead of drywall.  It gives a pretty good adhesion surface for the tile.  They also used it to build the floor pan, since the we had to go with was unique.



We actually sized the shower based on the vanity.  Apparently, 60" is a standard size for a double vanity, so we had them put the half wall in to allow for a 60" vanity.  After moving a bit of the electrical, they put the drywall back in place.

With the drywall and floor back in, it is almost starting to look like a room again.
