stay positive..my first rehab took a summer and most of first semester...i was washing dishes in the bathtub waitin for money to come in to order my countertop for the kitchen!!

Let me share a story on a CL laborer "GIG" hire.Several years ago I had to create a few drain fields for my swimming pool, and at the end I end up with a big pile of excavated sand that needs to be disposed of.Imagine how much sand a typical bathtub will hold, well multiply that by 5.I posted an ad on CL, posted a picture of the big mount of sand, gave the estimated volume how many cubic feet, and asked for a lump sum quote to come pick it up and dispose of it. 

The old tenants used used hair dye that stained the tub, when they left they were able to scrub off the dye but now there is a section of the tub- where about 18" x 8" of the tub enamel has been scrubbed off and is di...

I was a tenant myself around 4 years ago and didn't have to pay for water, it was included in the rent and trust me, having little kids, I sure let them play in the bath tub every day with water running nonstop.

Refinishing a bathtub shouldn't be either.

Bathtubs should be torn out and replaced.

I am trying to get a rough idea of how many hours it will take my contractor to remodel my bathroom so that i can get an idea of what i will be paying in labor.I am most likely going to paying between $40-60 per hourDetails:L:10ft, W: 8ft, H: 8Ft.Tearing out old bathtub and wall tiles in bath tub areaTear out ceramic tile floorsPaint vanity and install new countertop New fixturesFrame walk in shower where the tub wasFrame bench inside showerbuild trench draininstall recessed lighting in showertile shower up to ceilingInstall shower glasstile bathroom floorinstall new base boardsinstall new door

The bathroom has a new vanity, bathtub, ceramic tile floor and an ornate ceramic tile tub surround.

You can also coat your walls using watered down PVA because it acts as seal.Bleach is only effective if the mold is growing on non-porous materials like tiles, bathtubs, glass and countertops.

The bathtub drain must have been slow or blocked.
