Almost done with the bathroom
Posted by K Wed, 03 May 2006 05:45:00 GMT
I just finally bought the toilet (Toto Aquia, hooray), the faucet (Delta Lockwood in chrome), the sink (American Standard Retrospect), the valves for said sink (some Brasstech stuff), and a toilet seat cover for said toilet (the Toto oval elongated Softclose dealie). Thank you to MI-5 (the BBC show known as Hot Spies in this household) for making all this less painful by distracting me just enough while forking over hundreds of dollars for this stuff.
If the woman on eBay ever gets back to me I will get the light from her (some Royce 3 light vanity bar thing that is the only bath light I have seen lately that I actually like a lot) but if not I will have to order it from good old faucet.com. Once I do that I think we are done with the bathroom aside from toilet paper holders and towel racks and crap we can install when we get there. I saved some cash by getting the toilet seat and faucet (both new, don’t worry) on eBay and saved about a hundred bucks in the process.
The window saga with Home Depot continues. Today I talked to a very nice man who promised to fax me the whateveritis I need to fill out and fax back to them. He also promised to call me within a half hour. Once it got to be 6.15 here, 9.15 there, I realized that it wasn’t going to happen. Maybe tomorrow. If not, I get to call there AGAIN.
Next: finish sorting out the AC fun, check with the tile guy to see when our tile will be delivered, and start dealing with kitchen cabinets and sink/dishwasher/faucet/countertop.
