Tile progress

[andysocial]

I'm sure everyone is just anxious with concern over the tiledudes progress today. I'm happy to say that it went well. They repaired the floor after the plumber left it full of holes, got the tile done for the countertop and the kitchen floor, and are ready to hit the bathroom floor tomorrow. Still no grout to finish the tile with, which makes me a bit nervous. And, I hope they don't find a pipe hiding under the floor in the bathroom. There's no access under the house. We wouldn't even know if they hit something unless it was a huge gusher, until weeks from now. I don't relish the idea of ripping up a brand-new floor to fix 50 year-old plumbing.

Glad to hear it went well. I hope there are no more surprises for you in the future!

A short-lived hope, that. *sigh*

Oh no! What are you going to do now?

One of the tile dudes said he'll do it on the side for me, for 30 bucks. Apparently Lowe's doesn't cover them putting the fixtures back, only removing them. How would that not be something worth mentioning before they disassemble the house?

I would have assumed it would have been done too. $30 isn't that bad... but it's bad enough when you weren't expecting it.

Nickel and dime. A little here, a little there. 75 bucks for the plumber, 30 bucks for the toilet to function...
