RE: The Kitchen Metamorphosis: From a Simple Stove to a Full-Scale Invasion

Oh God! Reading your post was funny, but if I want to be honest, it deepened my own pain 😆 But at least you have made progress and maybe you're closer to the end than to the beginning.
I'm planning to upgrade the bathroom, which seems simple, but it means breaking down the tiles, throwing everything out, from bathtub to toilet and sink, breaking a wall and moving it, then moving all the heating pipes in the wall, building a new wall, a new door, a walk in shower, a new door and all the rest. What frightens me is all the rest because as you rightly says, it's not just what you see at the beginning. One thing leads to another and you end up upgrading half the house. I have to move out as I can't live without a bathroom, so I can fully understand your pain and also thinking of mine 🤕
The problem is, you need to schedule these works in advance as it takes time, and I'm postponing the call.
Happy that I can made you smile. Always try to add some humor to my posts. Life is serious enough as it it.
We did renovate the bathroom 6 years ago. And just like the kitchen it was a complete overhaul. The badroom was completely stripped and build up from the ground again. 5 months ago we suddenly did discover a leakage. We were freaking out because it was at place which was more or less unreachable without stripping half of the bathroom. After lots of dicussion with the insurance they decided to attack the problem from below our badroom, which luckily was the laundy room in the cellar. Luckily can be taken with a grain of salt, because we just finished remodelling that room. But in the end it all got fixed.
We were lucky that my parent only live 1 KM away from us. So it was going over there to take a shower. The sons were forced to shower at the football club :). The pain was over within 3 or 4 weeks and we are happy we did it.
I need to take a deep breath and make the call, let's see when can the team schedule me, but God ... I'm terrified already 😆
