Bathroom Remodel Update

So it's been a couple weeks since I've updated the progress on the bathroom. For all who are interested here's the list of what I've accomplished since the last post.
1. I've installed the shut-off valves in the attic so I can work on the bathroom plumbing and still
have water to the rest of the house
2. I tore out the old shower and bathtub plumbing and roughed in the majority of the new shower plumbing.
3. Removed most of the bay window window ledge framing and build a much stronger ledge with a 3/4" slope (for drainage).
4. Installed wall ends into the existing walls for my new wall tie-ins.
5. Capped the old shower drain, installed the plumbing for the new shower drain, poured concrete to fill in the old shower drain block out, and poured concrete around the new shower drain plumbing.


Sweatin' me some pipe.

This is the roughed in plumbing for the new shower fixtures.

Capped the old shower drain, drilled some rebar into the slab and just finished pouring the concrete to fill it and the new drain area in.

In order to make room for the half wall between the counter and the shower I had to cut the bathroom countertop (poured marble). It was unbelievably dusty. Sandra was walking around with my two handprints on her tush for most of the morning.

Jason, you are the bomb. I am totally calling you if I need my shower fixed. That will be in ohhhh...20 YEARS! I move around too much with the military. It is looking really good. I can't wait to see the end result.
