Tony was chugging along with the bathroom renovations and then came to a screeching halt. We had experienced a tornado that came through the area. Driving rain, high winds and hail managed to knock out our power for two days. Luckily, the weather wasn't that hot and we were able to get by. It really sucked that it took two days before our power was restored. We had sustained some food loss but all in all, we did OK. Tony managed to pick up where he left off and was busy installing the lights. One problem, the light fixture had a cover that didn't totally hide the back plate for the wiring. Being the engineer that he is, he used the spare marble that we had and custom made a fitting to finish off the bathroom lighting fixture. It came out fabulous. It was the perfect finishing touch.
He was on a roll and had to finish off the border around the bathroom. The vent cover was hitting the marble so he went ahead and customized it. He was busy out in the garage cutting off a small amount at a time. I'm glad that he took the time to finish off the details. When he installed it, it looked fabulous. Matthew commented that the bathroom looks like the hotels that we've been to. I agree. The color of the bathroom, the details that he went into have been totally worth it. He's got to install the medicine cabinets and seal the tiles and then we'll be ready to really enjoy the bathroom. The goal is to get it done before our friends arrive next weekend.
