Thanks to our prospective trailer-buyer (George) and his dad (Don), the plumbing is nearly finished, both drain-waste-vent and supply. The toilet drain and supply on the right, and the vanity sink drain and supply on the left. (Pex is terribly creative, with blue for cold and red for hot).
Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the bathroom, Mickey has been working hard on the shower. The first mortar bed slopes towards the drain.
Then Mickey added plywood, including a cut-out for a porcelain shelf.
Then the next layer of waterproofing, followed by plastic up the sides. He has been careful to keep every step waterproof along the way, and our shower pan passed its first test without a drip or a leak!
Ready for the second mortar bed and the curb.
Oh yes, and the floor!
The pebbles will also serve as the shower floor (once the drain plumbing officially passes inspection).
After we returned home from the Fourth of July family picnic, Mickey grouted the floor.
We finished that project by flashlight. (we = I held the flashlight while Mickey cleaned.)
Then back to the shower walls: plastic and cement backer board, to be completed once the supply plumbing passes inspection.
He also trimmed the window.
My contribution to the plumbing (attempting to unload the 10' PVC pipe from our Saturn "pickup truck").
Despite my "help," the kitchen is ready for the plumbing test.
As is the bathroom.
After the plumbing inspection, the only remaining inspection is the final one!
We are looking forward to the Great Plumbing Parts Return, at which point we will use our Lowes refund to go out to dinner. Judging by the amounts of parts left over in the basement, we should be able to order a drink with our meal!
