weaselferret asked:


On the ground floor, we have our kitchen and washer dryer near where we would put a half-bath. We’ve used Google to look for instructions, but haven’t found much. The floor is cement (in the laundry room), tile in the kitchen, and hardwood in the dining room. (We are thinking a nook in between the laundry, dining room, and kitchen is the best place.) Please explain the basic steps for us to get started (do we need a designer?) and some basic info about what we’ll need to do (pipes, licenses, tearing up the floor, what to avoid, etc.) I’m not concerned about *choosing* fixtures; we’re just trying to figure out plumbing, hook-ups, & requirements. We’re brave do-it-yourselfers! If you have good books or good websites to recommend, please do. (Please be very specific!) We would like to do all the labor ourselves, but will consult a contractor or designer for planning if needed. Also: what’s the minimum square footage required for a 1/2 bath? Thanks, everyone!
We don’t have blueprints for our house, incidentally; it is 200 years old!
Currently, we have a full bath on our 2nd floor, which is the floor above the ground floor. We could also consider a half bath on our third floor, just above the current full-bath. Would that actually be easier ?

Alma C asked:


My dog is deathly afraid of water — thus, anytime we’ve tried to give him a bath, he runs scared. No amount of coaxing will help, and he’s too big for us to pick up. He won’t even get anywhere near a water source. Not even his water dish sometimes. It’s gotten so bad, that I can’t remember the last time we bathed him. It’s unhealthy for him to stay so dirty, and I want to give him a bath. Please help!

Josh asked:


I’m a college kid so keeping laundry costs down is a goal of mine but I need to do something about my bath towel. I hang it up on a hook every time I use it so it’s not like it sits in a pile on the floor. But after only a couple of showers it will start to smell musty. Any suggestions to keep it smelling better longer?

granny_annabelle asked:


My parents recently bought a bathtub with jacuzzi jets. I want to buy my mother a nice gift for her new bathroom but don’t know what kind of bath products can be used in the tub with jets.
I have been advised that certain products would mess up the jets in the tub. Nobody seems to have a definitive answer. Are there certain brands better than others?

How much to plumb a half bath in a basement?

Val asked:


Our unfinished basement has no plumbing for a half bath. We want to put one in directly underneath the existing bath since all the plumbing is pretty much right there. All we want is to get a plumber in there to add the necessary pumps and pipes for a toilet and sink. Thats it, we can finish the rest. We just need an estimate. We live in the North east, if that is of any consequence. Any plumbers out there that may guess at the price?
