There was an episode of sweat equity where someone had left every door in their house like that, including the bathrooms.

Ashcans posted:My grandmother has a weird bathroom not unlike this. There isn't an actual shower stall, there is just a showerhead coming off the wall, and the entire floor is sealed and sloped toward a floor drain in the middle. The toilet is positioned directly under the shower so you could basically sit on it while showering, and there is a curved shower curtain that lets you screen off the shower area from the sink/medicine cabinet so those don't get totally soaked. This is called a "wet room." It's super common in many of the more crowded Asian countries and in ridiculously contemporary designer bathrooms that show up in architecture magazines.

Why... would that be a common thing in any type of construction?

Even low wage commissioned sales jobs make otherwise decent humans into depraved equivocating monsters. When the sale going through is worth tend of thousands of dollars to the salesperson? Forget about it.

Gunjin posted:Too expensive, really doesn't fit the character of the neighborhood at all, and honestly, the area around the lake isn't really the part of town I'd want to move to if I had 2 million to spend on a house. Also the appraisal is not going to take the ~aesthetic~ of the house into consideration, so good luck getting financed with area comps being half as much.

I know a sound person who converted a short bus for exactly that reason.

Oh wait also the sound person I know was the sound person on that tiny house show (when they shoot in our region). Or at least A tiny house show, I assume there are a few.

Just took out my bathroom sink to put in a new vanity. Discovered it was plumbed straight into the ground using 1 1/2" pipe and no S trap, and then that the shutoff valves are way lower than normal so the new tap lines (which are integrated into the tap) can't reach. Off to Loewe's again...

Can you... buy wire coat hangers at a regular store? I've only seen them come with dry cleaning.

On that note, I just had an inspection done on a house built in 1943 that, it turns out, has essentially just been sitting on dirt the whole time. At some point someone dug out a tiny crawlspace to install some plumbing, during which time they improperly notched all the beams. I got some contractors out to do some bids. They came up looking like they'd just seen a ghost, but the ghost had offered to put their kid through college.

peanut posted:lmao keep us updated on this wild ride Oh I also forgot the fact that the one "pier" was just a brick sitting on a rock. My contractors both gave me a quote of about $35,000. To excavate, build new piers, replace all the rotted and insect damaged beams, insulate and install a vapor barrier. Theirs said it needed $2,500 in "reinforcement." We LOLed and walked away.

Yeah they're incredibly cheesy but they actually do a decent job of convincing some deep part of your lizard brain that you're near some sort of nature. It's weird.

If you haven't already gotten closing costs and pre-paids covered elsewhere, consider asking the seller to cover them as a contribution towards getting the work done on your repair addendum. Puts the money back in your pocket without asking the seller to cover the entire cost of a repair that is a good idea but not totally or immediately necessary, and they may consider it an easier/cheaper way out than if you were to ask them to do the work. And since the inspector did call it out, it's a legit ask.
