Dress It Up

Where have I gone? I was stuck in tile world! 🤣 This is by far the largest shower I’ve ever done. 81” long, 41.5” wide, and 9’ high. This is also the first walk in shower I’ve done, so it got everything- a curb, new wall, side to side shelf rather than niches, and a 18” high and 16” deep bench. I also learned to use a lot more Schluter waterproofing materials, including a large pan that I cut to make a custom size.

This sweet family had not used their shower for 8 months when I started. The drain was leaking for years and then into the basement, but when the mudpack and liner were pulled up, the subfloor was still moldy and soggy! There were MANY unexpected repairs that had to happen after more damage was discovered when the floor and walls were opened up, many hold ups, and even some failure of tile to bond with All Set (meaning the floor had to be completely redone… long story and lots of work). Summer is busy as a mom and pastor’s wife, but this couple was so patient and kind. Scroll the pics for “before” and “during” pics.

Well the cat is out of the bag! TJ and I are purchasing our first investment property. TJ will hire Dress It Up, LLC to complete the renovations. We saw a lot of potential in this property and after we heard its story, we wanted to write a new chapter into this home’s story. As we take on this great responsibility, we would love to have you join us on this journey and will keep you updated along the way.

It’s a messy day. Definitely not my favorite part of my job, but I learned to use a new tool… even if my back will be feeling it for days. 😬😁

Enjoy a before and after here 🙂 These homeowners were amazing to work with and were due for a new tub and shower.

Lots of good things have kept me busy the last few months. I hope you update more here soon, because I have a full master bathroom makeover with a new walk in tiled shower in June. ♥️

Just another day at the “office.” Lol. Check out my new “mascara.”

I forgot my goggles… never again.

Here was a quick update this past week. The little kids in the house couldn't turn on the older faucet by themselves to wash their hands. This newer, updated faucet makes it a lot easier. In addition, there was a leaking drain pipe under the sink that was discovered when the drain was replaced, so by updating the sink, we remedied that issue as well.

Let me know if there is a way I can help you "dress up" your home. Little or bigger, I can help. -Heidi

A little update can make a big difference at a small price. This bathroom is not "done," but is being completed in stages as the owners can afford. A few months ago, the mirror and lights were replaced and a fresh coat of an updated color of paint was added. This week, the countertop, sink, and faucet will be replaced. Stay tuned for updates. :)

If you have had a few "honey do" items sitting on your list for awhile and would like to get them done, reach out to me. I'd love to help you out. -Heidi
