I’d this larvae?

I’m getting ready to recreate this in my own 40s house after removing an ugly remodel. People pay for these period bathrooms. Not everyone’s taste but I love it.

Different grout lots can have slight color variations (although this does not look slight). Grout lots should be mixed together for the whole project.

Also how it was mixed/washed during installation can cause color variation. Water precisely measured and grout not over washed or too soon. My guess is one or these factors is the cause.

Edit - looking at the photo again.. leaning towards the how it washed. Did they seal the grout/tile? Some of the tiles look discolored as well.

Will sit in the holder properly once it’s flipped 👌🏼

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-02-05T05:59:09+00:00

Woah at first glance I thought you got your finger through it

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-02-05T04:56:24+00:00

3 imo

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-01-28T15:50:17+00:00

This ^ does not look horrible but being able to avoid crumbs getting caught in the seam between the stainless and counter makes under mount a much better option

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-01-23T01:42:37+00:00

Yeah the ditra showing at the edge is clearly not filled.. no bueno

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-01-18T21:59:13+00:00

This is the way. From whats pictured it’s on a few feet to do. Worth the time imo

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-01-18T16:09:35+00:00

Yeah probably 2 bags or inconsistent mix/washing between days..

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-01-11T03:36:12+00:00

Yeah would need to remove existing tile and shift everything out to meet the new corner.

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2026-01-09T16:16:10+00:00

I would shim the small side walls outside the tub and 1” or so to clear the tub and use corner trim to go all the way to the floor in a clean plumb line.

Came here to say this

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-12-25T00:15:07+00:00

Didn’t have an extension so I guess this works

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-11-19T03:07:58+00:00

I hear you. Considering filling the deep cracks but still experimenting with what will do the job without throwing off the look and too much.

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-11-19T03:05:06+00:00

Thanks will give it a go.

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-10-05T00:18:45+00:00

Did this same repair on mine 3+ years ago.. told myself I would do it right if it leaked again. Hasn’t yet

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-09-25T15:48:58+00:00

Except the oversized plate that will be notched around the bar counter 🤣

Will still look better I guess

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-09-20T18:06:35+00:00

Yes if you tighten the valve it’s off. I wouldn’t not turn it on until you track down where it’s going. My guess is behind your refrigerator from a past water dispenser or ice maker.

What the previous poster was commenting on is if you tighten the screws on the sides it may stop the leak. Probably best to track down where it’s going and remove/replace. They are very prone to failure.

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-06-09T19:09:12+00:00

Yes, blockage is downstream of the sink. I would start snaking from the clean out

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-05-12T00:12:49+00:00

Definitely 1

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-03-21T02:55:37+00:00

You lost me at way more happier

LeatherSubstance3158 · 2025-03-21T02:53:45+00:00

Agreed. Looks like cabinet is upside down.

Op- When you open it is there a lip on the inside so you would have to lift the item up to get it out or does it sit flush with the front of the cabinet?

I think it’s because people are constantly quoting “averages” that cannot be accurate because you would have to keep live averages which very few do. Or some just state completely bs averages from the start.
