      It was bedtime. Eyes were closed ready to start snoring. Had it on a playlist. Was immediately jolted awake by the bgmusic. There was something "ominous" about it. From then henceforth, couldn't tear eyes away from start to finish. Timelapse combined with being cast on tv made it pointless to fastforward. Mesmerised is the right word. Especially like the shower tiles and sliding doors. Could munch on oreos ice cream in here. 😆

      It might look pretty, but a lot of it isn't to code ... especially the water proofing (tile floor & shower).
      A layer of tile and grout does not make it watertight, at all. And doesn't look like he put vapor barrier on the walls either, meaning that just doing it on the ceiling, was utterly useless.
      Thermal bridges ... rough circular cuts, no caulk behind the hardware of the taps to stop water from getting behind, into said rough circular cuts.
      I'm amazed at how people who know nothing are quick to insult those who offer valid criticism of the "craftsmanship" ... when it would fail at first inspection.
      Ok, it might be his place, so he can do "what he wants" (you still need to follow code though, because as things such as buyers law if he ever wants to resell the place, it will lose a tremendous amount of value from the simple fact a lot will have to be redone to get it up to code).
      So yeah, I'm also amazed. But I work in the industry.
      It might look nice (and don't get me wrong, it certainly does look nice) but it's just a DIY job. Sorry.
      Edit: as the saying goes, many skills but a master of none. There is a reason each job is a profession in and of itself.
