Our master bathroom remodel project began with removing a small tub and a window planter. The old
tub is a small oval shaped tub with a window planter behind it. The window planter is in a bay
window with windows on all three sides. The bathroom has some lovely pearl colored corian wall
panels. It looked nice but wasn't very functional. We took out the small tub and the planter and
this opened up space to remodel my bathroom with a large sunken bath tub.
The walls
around the tub and planter had a pearl style corian wall covering. I obtained more of this corian
and designed and built a frame around the tub to match the walls. We purchased and installed a
double wide sunken bath tub with 6 jets. I installed a large brass faucet over the edge of the tub.
This bath tub fits nicely in the room and takes up the exact same space as the old planter and
tub.
I installed white carrera marble tiles on the floor and replaced the toilet with a
stylish low flush toilet. The sinks and vanity are next to the bathroom in an alcove off the master
bedroom. We remodeled the sinks with stylish bowls and faucet fixtures that sit on top of the corian
counter. We extended the carrera tile into this area when we re-carpeted the bedroom floor.
We have a very restful and luxurious master bathroom remodel which the whole family appreciates
and enjoys. This is a great do it yourself home improvement project.
My wife delights in
filling the tub with sprinkle bath salts and water. She loves to soak and relax in this tub for up
to an hour if she could.
I like to fill the tub with plain water and then turn the jets
on and adjust the air intake for a more vigorous water flow. I can relax in this soothing tub and
listen to music.
Our two preteen granddaughters fancy filling the tub with water and
bubble bath suds. They turn the water jets on and churn the water to get bubbles up to their
chins.
Our youngest granddaughter is 2 years old and delights in filling the tub up with
about 4 inches of water. She swims around the tub like a fish and writes on the tub walls with water
color crayons.
