The Bathroom Floor Problem
Since the tile of the bathroom floor--and apparently underneath that, too--has problems, Dad is going to try to fix it. All by himself. He's going to start digging in the tile, and try to figure it all out.
So, since I won't have a bathroom, everyone is moving over to my grandmother's old house until he's done.
Which means no access to the internet at all--or even a computer.
I have no idea when I'll get to move back over here. (Sorry, Sean!)
I think it would be quicker if he would just call the plumber, but Dad likes to do things the hard way, rather than the easy way...
ETA: Forgot to mention that this should start tomorrow morning.

CALL PROFESSIONALS NOW!
NO NO NO Doing it his own self!
Get professionals in! I had my shower recess redone last year (or the year before?) and it was Bigger than Ben Hur! And this was just the shower, let alone the whole bathroom.
Concreting, waterproofing stuff, setting tiles, grout, finishing (and that's just from memory)... trust me, this is one for the pros.
The only positive about this is not having to wait for workmen who don't show up for yonks(but still gotta wait between each stage anyways for stuff to dry/set), but it's a bigger task than it looks on the surface.
