Guest Bath Reno Day 1: Demo + Tub

Today is the day!  We have been waiting on this day for almost a year...as we purchased this house 11 months ago.  My dad (owner of Bruce Green Contracting in Tyler, TX) got here today with his carpenter to renovate our guest bath!  They arrived at our house around 11 am and demo was done by 12:30!  Over the next week (because that's how long they will be here) I'll be posting the updates to the bathroom every evening.  Here's what happened today!

In case you didn't know...here's what the bathroom looked like before...
Like I mentioned in the first post for our guest bath {here}, in the picture it doesn't look awful from first glance.  You can read that original post to find out some of the main things wrong with this bathroom...although we have found A LOT more the longer we used it.  

Here's what we they did today:
Vanity, toilet removed.
Shower tile coming down.
Peel and stick flooring coming up.
More shower tile coming down.
The tile did not want to come down.
Notice the rotten spot near the tub :(
Tub is gone!
All the walls demo'd.
Rotted subfloor but NO mold!
Hole in the ceiling looking into the dining room from the water seeping through the overflow drain.
Replaced the shut off valves to the vanity.
Rotten subfloor removed and new wood installed.
New tub and working on the shower plumbing.
Done for the evening.
Don't be scared of demo people!  Sometimes you gotta tear it down to make it beautiful again!
So excited for this project to finally be underway and SO grateful to my awesome daddy for doing it for us!

I hope you enjoyed this reno adventure and join us the rest of the week for next steps in the bathroom, and as always, thanks for stopping by!
