Basically, we're working on the new tile floor now, and will basically just have countertops and finish work left. Since the last post we decided to go w/ drywall on the inside of the butler pantry rather than the OSB. The OSB just didn't seem to look finished enough. Along w/ finishing that wall, the cantilever shelf was built and cabinets installed underneath. The tile is 18x18" through-body porcelain. A little more refined and durable than ceramic, and more durable and less expensive than stone tiles. Regardless of the budget (and these were relatively budget friendly) this is a very smart flooring choice.
But, they are not light - at about 8lbs per tile or 60lbs per box, this is almost 2,000lbs of tile here. Physically getting this into the apartment was a project in itself. (don't do it all yourself!)[btw the red stuff on the floor is RedGard - a crack prevention and moistrure membrame.]
