Hey it's the September BS thread!!!

I hope you enjoyed SUPPER Jay.
This is one of those project "why the he_l did I even start?" I've now got two complete rows of tile on the front torn off and one complete row down the side wall torn out as well as another 1/2 a row. This doesn't even begin to address the rot in the subfloor that should be taken care of. I'm really tempted to tear the whole tub out and put a fiberglass insert in. It might actually be easier than this.

Here's some photos of the demo so far. Tomorrow will determine what we do from here.

I don't know why people tile right over drywall in wet conditions. See the name "dry" wall...
For mold sake alone you should remove it all, get rid of the rot and then durrock or tile board it for tiling it, or do a formed surround. Not sure what the long term plans are for you with the house though...
