Our Bathroom: Before and After Pics
I am not quite satisfied with our bathroom ‘after’ pics, but I decided to post about the process and then just update the pictures afterwards.
Originally, to get to the bedroom, you had to go through the bathroom as there was no landing at the top of the stairs – just a door to the bathroom. There was also a trap door through the ceiling with a pull-down ladder that gave access to the loft.
It’s kind of hard to describe as the bathroom renovation is based on some structural changes, including two staircases and several partition walls. But I digress.
Here’s a before picture, taken from the bedroom and looking towards the bathroom.
Before
During
This next photo is a ‘during’ shot, depicting how the walls and door changed from this angle.
Before
And here’s a closer before shot from that same angle which is slightly obscured by the open door on the left. Through that door used to be a set of stairs. You can see the bathtub and the toilet, complete with vintage 70s toilet paper – seriously, from the 70s!
During
Okay, now for a demolition shot. Slightly blurry, I know, but since the panelling partitions were taken out, it’s easier to see the before structure. See the pipe sticking out of the floor? The sink resided there.
Here’s what the sink nook looked like. It is now part of the landing.
Before/During
Okay, here we go. This is the toilet area, which we left in the same spot as before.
After
It’s a slightly different angle, but you get the idea.
Before
Now from the toilet, looking towards the bedroom.
After
This is one of the after shots I’ll replace soon, as you can’t really see much. The floor is slightly graded so all the water runs towards the drain. Then it’s just a shower, with the partition wall extending quite a bit further than before.
Before
Now, standing at the shower and looking towards the window. This is kind of where the door used to be, so you can’t see much in the before photo.
After
And here’s our new sink, mirror and window!
And looking left a little bit, you’ll see the new door, which leads to the new landing at the top of the new stairs.
Now that I’ve got a proper camera, I do plan on updating these photos. We’ve added some storage and towels and other decorative things, which aren’t in these pictures.
