Top To Bottom Construction: April 2016

BEFORE:

AFTER:

Top to Bottom Construction was called out to do some bathroom renovations at a 3 story townhouse located near the Terra Nova area in Richmond.

The homeowner wanted to remodel the bathtub on the 3rd floor into a shower stall with a seat.

The bathtub was never being used and it was urgent that the unnecessary bathtub be removed. We came in about a week after we inspected it and also had it done in about a week.

The bathroom being on the third level, we made sure that their stair carpet was kept clean during this process because we had lot of foot traffic going in and out of the townhome, as because material were brought in and out, and tiles needed to cut the tiles outside.

After the original tiling and bathtub were stripped out, the plumbing and electrical were upgraded to prevent any leaking. A new high quality shower head and tiling were completed after the new drywall was put up.

We kept the seat near the window for extra storage and for the homeowner to sit on while bathing.

Grab bars were added for easier access to the shower as well as a sliding glass door for a more modern look and to make the area look bigger.

TTBC had finished renovating the washrooms throughout this home in Richmond, but the renovations requested by the home owner did not stop there.

The laundry room needed to be remodeled to make it more convenient for them to fold their clothes and have more storage room. To make it easier on their backs, we raised their washer and dryer onto a platform. This meant no more bending down and no more back pain!

We added a back-splash around the sink to prevent water from getting through the walls. This was important because they regularly bathed their dog in this sink. We added high gloss cabinets along the wall for more storage space and added under-cabinet LED lighting. We also made the room brighter by adding recessed pot lights in the ceiling.

All in all, the project was fully completed in one and about 10 days.
