Its taken me 4 weeks but I am at the cusp of being done. When we moved in, the room was an "office" and the laundry was in the garage. The previous owner told us that the "office" used to be the laundry room. so I figured the plumbing was probably still there. I've now almost converted it back into a laundry room. Only thing left is to move everything back in this weekend. All work was done by me (except for rewireing the electrical, I had an electrician come do that for me). Here's some pictures, and yes my cell phone sucks at taking pictures:
Before picture, except that I had already tore off the base board molding, red walls, linoleum "parquet" looking tile floor:
I cut open the sheetrock and actually was really close to where the plumbing was, and luckily, it was all still there!
Only problem was they poured something down the drain to close it off, permanently, so I had to cut out the sheetrock and replace plumbing:
I didn't actually take a picture of the plumbing replaced with PVC, but heres what it looked like after I put up new sheetrock:
Here I started to prime all the walls while waiting to the mud and tape to dry on the sheetrock patch:
After sanding and mudding again, and then sanding again, I finally got to prime and paint it all:
Time to tile, I first had to scrape off the linoleum:
Shameless image of me tiling the floor:
Tiling done, waiting to dry:
Grout done, molding done:
Dryer vent installed, ready for operation!
