Before and After: downstairs

Carpet, another layer of carpet, rubber, staples, and lots of dirt.


Demo


After demo we scrapped, sanded, and sealed (Amy below) We added in new electrical on a separate meter from the commercial space.


Microwave, washer and dryer, industrial shelving, 2 windows, an induction burner, a new faucet, and exposed beams.


Before and After: Bathroom

The bathroom was a big nasty mess: Two toilet holes, one very small metal stall, blue flooring, drywall backed with cement board, and old windows.



Behind all of that was beautiful redwood and solid framing + beams.  We added exposed copper plumbing with kohler shower heads...



We added double pane windows, redwood window casing, towel rack, a new toilet, redwood baseboards, exposed hardwood floors (cealed and finished), and nickel fixtures.


...built a bench, added a shower pan, cement board, motar, tile, grout, caulk (complete with a day full of cock jokes), and plexiglass for the ceiling



Dark grout


A recycled sink with a new cabinet.  Copper curtain rack with a drop cloth curtain.

Before and After: loft apartment
