Shower base, 9/13/06

Giselle G. and family were remodelling and this Swanstone shower base just did not fit the bill. It was installed and then immediately uninstalled. I think that we paid $50 for it.

Here is the installation (back in 2007!):And then John started tiling!We purchased 3 pallets (approximately 900 sqft) of slate tile from BuildDirect.com. With residential delivery, the tile was ~$2.50/sqft. The same slate was used in the two kitchens, three baths, and front porch. John designed and installed all of the slate, including the reclaimed slate from a New Orleans sidewalk that was used as a shower seat!

The finished product is very dramatic!
