scraping caulk off the bathroom wall

Just another Saturday, ripping the tub off the bathroom wall.  Again.

Unfortunately.


This repair has been on the list since we returned from the U.S. earlier this summer.  Major leaking and drainage issues meant that we were going to need to pull the tub out and get some serious work done.  The worker guy finally came today and got us fixed up - we hope.

The silver lining to this whole story is that I got to attack all our moldy bathroom caulk with my deadly bleach and exact knife combo.  All that nasty once-white-turned-black-with-mold-growth caulk is gone and now that the tub is re-installed and re-caulked it looks so nice and WHITE!

The workman also helped out with a few other little projects and is slated to be back again later in the month for a few more things... sigh.  Tis the tune we sing around here - the land of poor quality construction supplies and hardly-trained construction workers does not lend itself to long term durability.  oh well.  I'm getting used to it.

How does one ever get used to things like this? But glad your tub is fixed. Such a good feeling of satisfaction to cross another thing off a list.
