May 18: The house has 3 full bathrooms, and a tiny powder room under the back stairs - for quick trips from the garage workshop. The bathrooms have all had tile installed in the last week or so, on the floors and showers. The vanities are not all in, but I have chosen the marble piece that will be the vanity counter tops in the den & guest rooms (quartz in the ensuite). I love the showers.....
Final grouting of the den shower.
Vanity in the den shower.
The marble for the countertop in the den and guest bathrooms is from Matrix in Duncan. It is mined in a quarry on Vancouver Island. This type is called West Coast Wave - it is the marble that is found between the very white and the very dark.
The West Coast Wave marble is a white / blue-grey colour. It is smooth with very few flaws.
The drawings on the wall in the master ensuite marking out where the vanities and wood panel will go. The wood paneling is being made now, while the vanities sit in the walk in closet. Counter tops will be quartz.
Ensuite shower.... There are four different tiles in this shower; the floor tile, the large travertine, the glass waterfall and the cream time on the sides (it has texture). The edges of the pony wall will be covered in the same quartz as the counter top.

East wall in the shower beside the shower opening. The opening is wheel chair wide so we can stay in this place as long as possible..... Den calls this our box house (to be taken out in a box....)
