Yep, and that's why you put your reno money in to the kitchen if you want to at least break even. There's must less subject to taste in that room and it gets used constantly. Bathrooms are what you reno when you have money to piss away or you intend to stay in your house for another 10 years so you "get your money back" through use.

Man, I read 'reno money in the kitchen' and thought that's a great way to describe gambling on a remodel, vegas money must be the bathroom. Dissapoint.

I honestly can't believe the OP wasted all that money to make some lovely ~trendy~ bathroom when the first one actually was functional and the second one is going to go out of style in like 2-4 years tops.

And he seems like the type that cares about that stupid poo poo.

Yeah we've had water manage to seep through before and thankfully caught it before it did this, but god drat it does this really fast.

It's not even that the original bathroom was just functional, it was also nice and a very good use of space. OP is basically halving the amount of open space in the bathroom for some stupid wanker shower with 4 heads because getting clean with only one shower is hard or something?

Fuckin builder grade bullshit bitch. Can't have that in a ballin' crib.

OP, put sod under your tub. That way you can step on to the nice soft grass after your shower. Keep a lawn mower in your linen closet. Or buy a sheep.
Bonus, if you get a dog, it can poo poo and piss on it. Then you won't have to get up in the middle of the night to let it out.

Put perforated gas pipe used for firepits under the rocks surrounding your tub. I am sure there's a way to engineer this safely



It would solve the mold problem and keep your tub water hot.

Commercial kitchens and hospitals are aggressively cleaned by teams of people multiple times a day. How big is your cleaning team and how many hours a week do they work?

2, maybe 3 if you count the older kid, and very little, as a home kitchen doesn't need to be hospital sterile nor sees the usage and corresponding daily trashing of a commercial kitchen.

I'm trying to think of something easier to clean than smooth metal that doesn't rust, is stained by only a few things, damaged by even less that one would find in a typical kitchen and is non porous.

Are you saying that you know what this other magical material is too? I must be really out of the loop.

You're moving the goalposts. Nobody was talking about sterility until you. Stainless is hard to keep visually clean. Stainless in commercial kitchens and hospitals looks clean because they need it to be sterile. And you're being a smug rear end in a top hat so no, I will not help you google things. Enjoy living in Fort Fingerprints.

Stainless does have a reputation for getting finger-printy, but I really never found it particularly hard to manage. I don't have kids though, so my kitchens have always been a bit cleaner as a default anyway.

Our new appliances are GE's slate line, and they have an appearance similar to stainless, but don't get smudgy at all. Very nice.

It's got the reputation for fingerprints because people in general are dumb and don't clean properly. I have not seen any stainless that couldn't be cleaned to sparkling with a Simple Green scrub (using a cloth or Scotch Brite pad, depending on soil level), followed by a wipe down with Stoners Invisible Glass and a microfiber.

It's not hard at all, but easy to cry about, I guess.

Only people with no children and those crazy OCD women who put down "professional mother" as an occupation should ever even think about having a white or stainless steel kitchen at home. You can't keep it clean and if you have basic knowledge of food hygiene then it's simply not needed. But hey if you want to spend 2 hours a day cleaning to keep it looking all shiny then all power to you.

Yep. Anyone who knows how to clean a car can maintain a stainless countertop and likely has all the stuff to do it.

Eh, it's all trade offs and compromises. Formica's cheap and easy to clean but wears out, granite requires special care, solid-surface stuff also requires care or just becomes dull plastic and isn't heatproof, butcher block is actually difficult to keep clean (unlike stainless steel which just gets fingerprints)
