Great project and excellent work documenting it all. I'm retiling around a tub over the holidays and enjoyed your videos for a little motivation. BTW, I hate plumbing too :-)

[dnahoghunter]

@mkmooney7 Did I say, I hate plumbing? LOL Glad the vids help...

Thanks for posting

[IBREAKJAWS]

At least it's not galvanized plumbing,that's what I have to deal with

[scolopede]

Wow this is great! I've got to do the same thing pretty soon and you posting the vid making my confidence go up. My house was built in 1977, both bathrooms look a lot like that, have the same sink, even the same color! But it's the shower and toilet area that need to go over here, sinks good enough. Anyway, thanks for showing! I'm going to finish watching the rest later.

[dnahoghunter]

You're very welcome!!! Hope it helps...

Last time I pulled vinyl tiles up I used a torch and carefully heated the glue up, they came up just fine...

[dnahoghunter]

But the fumes???

[indymedic]

Really wasn't that much, just got the tiles warm. A few started turning black and blistered a little, but still not much smell. In that particular room the tiles were stuck tight to the plywood subfloor and even with a scraper they were coming up in chunks the size of a quarter until I started heating them. I guess I could have done the same thing with a heat gun, but all I had was my plumbing torch. Instead of quarter sized chunks they came up as whole tiles.

This is so incredibly helpful when I have to do this someday. Thanks for taking the time to film it. It really helps me out.

[dnahoghunter]

No problem!!! I just make stuff up and post it. I have 2 more vids to go...

[stludachris]

two words...safety glasses

[dnahoghunter]

Most of the time. Thanks for the comment. I need to post the rest of this project!!!

[grammirea]

[dnahoghunter]

Go!!!!

[grammirea]

base of walls is going to be interesting...need to do some of that in fairfield.

[dnahoghunter]

At this point in time... Walls are back up and studs replaced. I'm running behind on the vids. And fishing takes priority!!!

[indymedic]

AMEN brother...

[Anniebobanny1234]

I had a bad experience with a hammer and a four inch putty knife!!!!! I will never forget that!!!!

[dnahoghunter]

Ouch. You'll have to tell me about it sometime.

[Anniebobanny1234]

Yes dear....one day you will have to sit on my little old knee and I will share...you are such a sweet man!

[hogdude1234]

What was that grin at 1:39 ????? That is all I want to know!!!!

[dnahoghunter]

LOLOL...I was reaching for the camera. My side was digging into the cabinet. This poor ass program wouldn't get rid of that without loosing 2 secs of video after that. Did you get your destruct fix on the top? Thats about as rough as I got! Sorry.

[hogdude1234]

10-4....I was hoping for a bigger hammer though!!!! LOLOL

[dnahoghunter]

I couldn't find the 5lb sledge!!!

[hogdude1234]

Damn!!!!

[dnahoghunter]

More clips. I worked all day today. Its now 6:19pm and I'm stopping for diner. Then I have 1 wall to rebuild, 2 pieces only. After that, I have to do wall braces and by The forth day I'll be putting my new tub in. I'll probably start to run behind on vids. Hopefully I'll do 1 a day.

This is getting to be sort of a daily soap - now I'm hooked and want to see progress ;-)
