Before and After Bathroom Photos 2

Before...

When we took the tub surround apart, we discovered a lot of water damage over the years, and a lot of dirt. There was also some very pretty old linoleum that was visible in patches on the floor underneath, and 1950s newspaper comics stuffed in under the surround plaster!

The toilet came out easily, but we discovered that the toilet flange was made of two mis-matched pieces - which explained some of the water damage (ick). Getting the clawfoot tub out of the room so we could work required the muscular help of a nice fellow named Dave (who got a bottle of rum for his efforts).
