I did the opposite. My whole bathroom is stainless steel. Walls, floor, ceiling - all stainless, all seam welded. When it comes time to clean, I seal up the room as the entrance door is military surplus off of a submarine. I set the wash cycle, and the open shower design allows a high pressure, high temperature spray to reach all corners of the room. Bleach is pumped in through the plumbing, and when it's finished, it all drains through my Asian floor toilet.

Avatar/post combo finally achieved for this thread.

Was the buttcoiner with a pizza oven in his uneven-floor garage a goon too?

I thought there was a goon who suffered brain damage because he set up a lovely mining server room and fell asleep in it while it overheated.

This has gone in a glorious direction for something that started with a bathtub.

That's so nice. Also ❤️ the story of grandpa helping build the houses in the neighbourhood.

That's how my house got built in 1979. My grandpa built it so he could live in it, the first house in the first neighborhood in this area.

It's expanded rapidly since then, to the point where a stretch of restaurants and businesses was a dirt road back when my house was new. As recently as 1994, according to Google Earth historical imagery, some of the major shopping and dining centers were plain dirt. Both places I've worked at were fields and forests.

If the OP is still lurking. If you have to tear up the bathroom floor to fix your beams--sound proof the floor/fill those cavities with insulation.

He'll probably take that to mean "replace cavities with aquariums".
