Finally done with the jackhammering and wrapped up the day by hauling out all the rubble.

Surprisingly little water damage on the floor and walls, considering how bad it looked on the surface. I’m a bit intimidated by the scale of this job, even though I’ve done one before. Just need to break it down into tasks and focus on one step at a time instead of the whole thing at once.

That's how I do bigger projects, too. I plan the steps, and do one step at a time. I don't rush, because it's not a paying job. Although, I suppose if this is your only bathroom, you might feel some pressure to complete it quickly.

I'm a general contractor and I'm doing this for a customer.
