Renovating and Remodeling a 1920's Bathroom

[ptradmin]

Living in a 1920's home is wonderful - you get style, character, and an established neighborhood all rolled into one. But some of the antique "innovations" of the 1920s may not cut it for modern use. I mean, let's face it, plumbing back then was barely in existence, let alone up to modern building codes. But most of us aren't dealing with a simple and straightforward update to modern systems and styles. No, we're often undoing someone else's botched mess. Much of what makes a simple renovation into a full-blown remodel has to do with inferior work performed decades ago. What you have, in our case, was a situation where a bathroom was simply in desperate need of an update to bring it into the 21st century - but while letting it retain a bit of old world charm. That was our challenge - and we started where all good projects start: at the drawing board.
