Dredging up a thread from two years ago, my home improvement saga continues
The whole front of the house and front yard looks completely different from 2 years ago. I had a perimeter drain/curtain drain installed so I don't have a lake under the cottage when it rains. The whole front yard was completely redone. I re-did the entire front of the house including replacing a rotted sill, re-framing, a new window, new roof, new cedar shingles & trim.
This February
Last summer
Last May
This winter, the big project was a complete do-over in the bathroom and gutting the guest bedroom. The framing in the cottage is all screwed up so as exterior walls get gutted, they get re-framed.
Architect plans for the building permit
2 months ago, guest bedroom
"before" in the guest bedroom
"before" in the bathroom
Radiant heat in the bathroom
3'x5' cast iron shower base
Toto wall mounted toilet
Shallow closet in the bathroom
Shelves in the newly redone guest bedroom
Grohe thermostat shower valves on both sides.
Bathroom shots from this week as the tile goes in. The skylight install requires stripping the roof so that goes last.

It's not the schedule, it's the budget. Like usual, I'm 100% over as the scope of the project kept increasing. This started out as a simple bathroom remodel.

South Dartmouth, Ma in the harbor village of Padanaram. I bought what should have been a tear-down in my home town to be my summer cottage. Over the last 3 winters, I've basically had the thing rebuilt in place. Still have the master bedroom to do for next winter. Originally Posted by Nick

I now have a functional bathroom.
I have a temporary shower curtain until the glass shower enclosure goes in.
You can also see the skylight isn't installed.
