Life Used To Be So Hard

Project du jour: Continue on the bathroom.

Goal: Finish with the tub in position, leveled and test-fit, ready for plumber next week.

Steps: Vacuum and sweep obsessively. Cut and install rock wool (Roxul) insulation. Pad where necessary with 1-1/2″ styrofoam panel insulation. Call electrician for advice on how to handle existing wires. Measure, cut, and install 6-mil plastic vapor barrier. Affix red tuck-tape over gaps. Trim excess plastic sheeting. Carry in tub, place on guesswork shims. Adjust and level.

Status: DONE.
