Sinking and sealing

Having given up on getting the sinks in ourselves without leaks, we called in the reinforcements: Good old Doug the plumber. Who diagnosed our previous issue -- the P-trap we'd bought was simply defective. Good night. Anyhow, while he was here, he also got the bathtub spout fixed too. Thanks to Doug for coming out on a weeknight.



While installing the sinks, we chipped one of the pedestals. In another place from where Jeff and I chipped it the other night. So Jeff runs to Lowe's for a replacement. Not too expensive, and it gives me peace of mind. Doug taught me how to install these right in the future, so I won't have another mistake like this one...if I ever attempt it again myself.



And now Jeff is sealing the grout upstairs as I blog. Unfun work. And stinky too! But it gets us ever closer to the end of this chapter in the redo.
