More tile come added to the walls today. They have added most of the tiles around the bathroom; just a few more rows needed here and there. The tile-guy is doing a great job of mixing and matching the tiles so we don't have a clump of colors.
We also now have a door frame and drywall in the hallway. One door, versus the two, on that wall does make for a cleaner look.
We originally wanted the tile to go up the wall 40 inches, only to change that to 46 inches. Now, the wall plug has to raised. But then it will be even with the light switch.
The cuts around the pipes for the sink are great. It will look really clean and smooth with the pedestal sink.
We also have a completely framed in linen closet. Just need to make the cuts for the access panels.
And the issue: no alcove for the soap and shampoo. I didn't catch it and the workers forgot about it. We think we have a solution: cutting an alcove on the wall with the shower head. We have to get a very narrow and yet tall alcove and there won't be one for the tub. Namely because the workers were unwilling to rip out tiles. Don't ask. We have had lots of issues with them, including one of them letting Stirling out (who took herself on a walk to the local dog park.), and so I am adding this to the list of why I won't recommend them.
Ceiling has been smoothed out and ready for the vent fan and a fresh coat of white ceiling paint.
The project is winding down. Will and I are excited that this will be the last project for a while that requires a construction crew. The bathroom will look amazing. Here's hoping it doesn't leak.

I think the inset under the shower head is a good solution and you don't have to have one for the tub. I was pretty sure they wouldn't be willing to rip out tile. I know you will be glad when it is all done!
