Gallery of 2002 Projects - Upstairs Bathroom
Image 1 of 11
This is the view of the glass tile that surrounds the upstairs bathroom and provided the enclosures for the tub and the shower. As you can see, there is no spacing for grout so unfortunately the shower and tub enclosures suffered major water damage behind the tiles to the walls. The first project that was begun in the house upon purchase was to attempt repair of the walls without disturbing the tiles to make the tub and shower usable. Unfortunately, the walls were too damaged to repair and some of the tiles in the enclosures were so badly cracked or missing that the decision was made to remove the remaining good tiles in the enclosures, repair the damage to the walls, then replace the original tile with new tile. It appeared as if the shower had not been used in a number of years, since it had a number of the green tiles totally missing and major cobwebs behind the door. The mixing valve in the shower was frozen shut. The previous homeowner had used contact paper to cover the missing and damaged tiles in the tub enclosure to attempt to make it usable.
