True-—my condo has only a shower in the Master bath——the second bath has a tub with a shower.

We remodeled both bathrooms in the past few years. Main bathroom has a tub. We figured that as the population ages, it made sense to remove the tub in our small master bath and put in a nice sized shower stall, plus it gave us room for a small built in shelf unit.

Best part was, I hired a buddy to do the work. My then college age son was working for him over the summer and did most of the labor. My friend asked if I wanted my kid on payroll and I said “Nope. He’ll work for food.”

Somehow or another it actually worked. We paid him by reducing his college debt repayment to us.

He was in school to become an engineer and I told him I know too many engineers who don’t know how to turn a screwdriver. He worked two summers as a remodeler for some good hands on skill.
