5x6 bathroom layout with shower code#
This entire reno is up to code and permitted. It would be stupid for an island with a severe housing shortage to tell folks their bathrooms aren’t code and need to be closets now. Quote from a contractor was 15k and a three month wait so I’m happy with the end resultsĮdit: I didn’t think this was needed but apparently a lot of people in this sub don’t realize rules change outside their teeny tiny worldviews but code varies from place to place and some things you think odd are grandfathered in.

Total cost was around $8k and I’d guess 3k was due to moving things around. Would have been 2500 if I didn’t have to move everything Thankfully it’s so overengineered there are 2x the needed number of supportsĪ door was moved from one wall to another so I can create a separate laundry room and was needed to fit everythingįitting this all in the space was the hardest part and I used an app to design it And the previous Renos over the last 60 years were all wonky. Biggest challenges were being a 120 year old home built by ship builders so nothing is standard and the dade county pine is so dense it broke drill bits, hole saws and even burnt out a couple tools lol.

I worked with a handy man who charged $55 an hour (not bad around here and half what a contractor would cost) for most work and did the electrical, duct work, painting, myself. It’s a tiny room so I had to move the door and rearrange things but in the end it worked out well. /u/Mmmelanie has a drug-filled hole under houseĪfter I did my master bath I decided I wish I had a tub so when I finally renovated my guest bath (it’s only a 1 bedroom with a large loft) I said yolo and was determined to fit a tub in.The Jill Taylor (Most Unfortunate Situation) Award /u/chrislightening and their staked electrical line.How much will it cost? aka Always get 3 Quotes!Īl Borland Award (Best Home Improvement Project) Any links to a website or blog will be removed.
