Demolition is underway. The slideshow has pictures from the end of both days.
Day 1 - vanity, toilet, tub/shower, mirror, linen closet, and the tile on the walls.
Day 2 - floor tile and some plaster/sheetrock.
Now that stuff is exposed we can confirm that plumbing and electrical wasn't done properly. That's no surprise given some of the symptoms we'd seen in the past, along with some others not mentioned previously:
- in the winter when you flushed the toilet all the water would get sucked out of the traps for the sinks and tub/shower
- the switch for the bath fan didn't do anything ; which was OK because...
- the fan just blew into the attic instead of outside
- wiring that's not run through studs, just stapled to the edge
- studs/joists that are half-cut randomly
If there's a way to break a construction code, it 's in this room...
Did I say I'm glad we're doing this?
