Bathroom finally completed

Just been reading through my last post from end of May, and thinking how on earth did it take me so long to get to this one 🤣

 

A lot of blood, sweat, tears and swearing later, and i've finally finished the bathroom, which has exceeded what I imagined i might be able to create, I still keep walking in and thinking, naaa this can't be my bathroom. So another room brought to a close 🙂

Those panels on the wall were actually meant for the living room, sound absorbing panels for the home cinema, but despite having ordered 'Natural' and them looking off white on the internet, they came with a blue tinge to them so wouldn't have gone. When i asked for a refund, they didn't want them back and just sent me the money, so I thought they'd be useful in the bathroom, and have massively dampened the echo in there.

Aside from not plastering the sloped ceiling, everything else you see internally i've done myself, including the cabinets, which I really enjoy making, i took woodwork at GCSE but was at school at the time when IT was just getting going and consequently we were all pushed down that route.

 

Walls are painted with F&B Ammonite, and the ceiling is F&B Wevet, mixed by Johnstones Trade

 

Best success? Probably trusting myself to measure 4 times, cut once, and actually get it right for once...The solid oak top on the toilet/sink back, £130 alone that cost me, but it came out bang on!

 

Total cost for everything was just a shade under £4k.

 

Onto my new snug next which is actually well underway, but i'll post another entry when its all done and dusted in a month or two's time!

Really nice work and great joinery too. Well done I'd be bloody happy with that for £4K

 

I think we spent 4K last time we refurbed our bathroom 7 years ago but it was all off the shelf stuff

Wow - great job! Latest skillbuilder video said he spent 10K on his bathroom renovation which horrified me, 4K is much more reasonable and a steal for the quality you delivered, amazing!
