Looks like they are going to have to gut the bathroom and as usual the womanfolk want to design it with the usual assortment of foo foo woman stuff.
Let's look at this from a different perspective.
What is a bathroom, anyway?
It's a place to perform the five S's, shave, $hit, shower, shampoo and shine. Nothing more, nothing less.
The first of the four tend to leave it in need of periodic maintenance. You scrub the toilet, the sink, the tub, the shower and the floor to keep it tidy and sanitary.
What people really ought to do is cease and desist making a 'fashion statement' over what is nothing more than a hygeine station and make it easy to maintain.
A bathroom should simply be a one piece fiberglass insert consisting of a toilet, a sink to wash hands and shave with and a bathtub/shower combnation. When you frame the house you simply drop it in.
It should also be equipped with a pressure washer, a soap sprayer and a floor drain so you can easily keep it clean.
Instead of the usual assortment of bathroom cleaners one just walks in wearing a bathing suit or a pair of shorts and sprays the entire thing with Zep degreaser, lets it sit for a few minutes and then power washed the entire thing and just let everything just wash down the floor drain.
Of course, try selling this one to the Karens of the world. Ain't gonna happen because there's no spot for them to hang artwork that nobody ever looks at, anyway.
See how telling her to get it laminated and duct tape it to the wall will go over.
I'd buy that. Nice and practical.
