Before and After- Bathroom Rental Unit
Before
So much gross
So much gross
During
We demoed the entire shower surround and refinished the bathtub. I really wanted to replace the floor and wall tile, but they were in good shape and it wasn't in the budget.
After
We also replaced the vanity and vanity lighting. I'm not happy with the vanity counter top color, but it was a great value and I loved the offset sink. 
Before and After- Rental Unit Kitchen
Before
The most difficult part about this kitchen was the floors. In the second photo you can catch a glimpse of the green asbestos floor tiles that are hiding under original hardwood floors.
During
We were careful in removing the asbestos tiles to use suits, respirators, and make sure all tiles remained in tact. The tiles were the easy part, the mastic beneath though was a beast to get off. We tried every adhesive remover imaginable and we were hesitant to simply sand because we assumed the mastic also contained asbestos.
We decided to just paint the existing cabinets and reuse hardware
from the kitchen renovation in our apartment.We had a hard time finding
surface hinges so we spray painted the existing ones.
After
We decided to have the mastic professionally tested and it turns out it was asbestos free!Look how beautiful the hardwood is!
