Bathroom Project Progress

Bill & Robert worked in the basement most of today.

Kristin (AKA Fidget)--helping by checking the shower

Bill worked all morning & afternoon on running power. It is making it more visual of where everything will be. He's doing a really nice neat job...too bad no one will see how nice it looks once the walls are on!

Bill taking a break...nice tool belt?? Imported from PLAINS GEORGIA!! Bill's handiwork..new box and nice new wiring....

Robert worked on the shower, and chiseling a space for the P-Trap for the shower. If we had not chiseled into the basement floor, we would have had to raise the shower base another 5 inches (we are already raising it 3 1/2" due to the drain). Being there is no drain below the basement--we are "flushing up"--everything up & out! Our septic is almost at the same level if not a bit higher than our basement--due to it being off to the side of the house, and not below in the field (where our drain field is). After the wiring is finished...things will be at a standstill until the toilet and macerator/pump unit come. It is scheduled for delivery on Friday....then they can hook up the plumbing. With the pump, everything in the bathroom needs to be run into it, to be pumped up to the black pipe, which thankfully, is right on the same wall as the bathroom. Can't wait to see how cracking into that will be! Fun!! Stay tuned...we'll update you as more happens.

All four walls in place....wired, and waiting for plumbing....
