Van Goghs to Hell

The upstairs guest bedroom in the northwest corner of the house is where one of three new bathrooms was added upstairs as part of last year's construction project. That bedroom has copies of Van Gogh paintings and is affectionately known as the Van Gogh room.

That bathroom is where my General Contractor, Peter LaRoque, found water under the floor tiles when he was investigating the source of the leak above the wetbar in the kitchen area below. Last weekend, he and his helper Robert starting tearing up the floor tile to see how bad the water leakage problem seemed to be and to see if a source for it, or direction of it, could be determined.

So here are some pictures of one of my brand-new bathrooms:





And if you'll notice the subflooring in this close-up photo, you'll see the black where mold has already taken hold.
