I made the guy come outside to write up the deal. Couldn't stay inside that house for more than a minute.

Me @ 27k he peeled off 13500 cash on the spot....:yesnod::confused5:

I've seen them worse than that. A leak that was never fixed, rotted the floor where it was dangerous to walk on it. Dripping sewage into the crawl space.

He should keep it intact, as if you look close enough, from a 60-degree head slant, you can see a vague image of Mother Teresa in her youth.

May be able to sell on EBay for quadrillions.

She is, was safe as those in her parishes were not pursuing females.

So did you get the job, or was the cash a lowball offer? And what, exactly does the customer get for $ 27K? I'm assuming there's some structural damage of studs, etc, in addition to the straight tear out and rebuild. Does he want a shower, or another tub/tile backsplash combo?

My master has a garden tub and a separate shower. The tub probably hasn't been used more than maybe 3 dozen times, total, most of that being the, at the time, wife. I used it a couple of times long ago when I got poison ivy. Pour bleach in a tub of hot water, soak in it for 10 or 15 minutes, then shower off with cold water. Bleach dries the skin and pulls the oil out of it. Other than that, or maybe people with arthritis or injuries, I don't know why anyone would want to take a bath or a sitz bath.

I get that the ladies enjoy the whole bubble bath thing, but that's for mood enhancement, I doubt they're trying to get clean after a day getting dirty and greasy.

That wasn't a Catholic. They're too stingy with their money to be carrying around that kind of cash. Most likely a Jew who lied to you.

I need you to fly to my place and quote me a master bath redo on my 22 year old master bath. Last month, the wife goosed me into replacing our "still working fine' kitchen appliances (the whole suite) from bisque to stainless and wifi 'smart' versions. The microwave is actually an air fryer and toaster oven, so we cleared those separate things off our counters.

Now she's onto the master bath.... I keep telling her we aren't "Chip & Joanne" but she's on a roll now.

My contractor measured up, his bid is 13,5K to include the living room ceiling repairs.

Nice, very nice actually, but a little over the top for me to just wash my stuff...my master shower is that big but not nearly as fancy...

A nice hotel is where I got that idea. :seasix:

C'mon man, who doesn't get household organizational and layout ideas from other buildings, showrooms, high-end homes, HGTV, movies, etc ?

Lighten up...

True, while in Chile I learned about the "bottle trap" for my vanity! Saved the cabinet from huge cuts in the shelf!
