#26 Old house in Greece renovation. Starting a concrete shower tray. One day Turkey trip.

In this video I start building a conrete shower tray. For that I needed to fill the space below the former bath with sand, pour some conrete to make a basement for the wall mounted drain and connect sewage pipes.
Between works I drove to Turkey and collected my family from the Istanbul airport. They spent one week in Moscow and had a bit of time with our relatives.
In addition, we do some minor work here and there. We finally properly clean the marble stairs, install beautiful outdoor lights along it and kick out scropios, who turned out to be huge lovers of relax near the pool.

Wow, that really makes a difference on those steps.👍

[@questionablebutokay]

Yes, finally! This mold remover worked really well together with a pressure washer.

Steps look so much better, nice to see the marble & nice lights too 😀

[@questionablebutokay]

Thank you. At some point I thought they are irreparably damaged :)

Amazing work

[@questionablebutokay]

Thank you!

[@peppysakell]

Impressive what your wife did with the stairs!

[@questionablebutokay]

Thank you. Indeed! It was a great job from her side. I love how the stairs look now.

Why is the plumbing so dodgy in Europe?

[@questionablebutokay]

Right? But I have to admit it's more weird in Greece. In Germany when they make sewage they always connect gray pipes using rubber rings so you just insert one pipe into another and that's it. Here they don't do that, instead you have to heat one end of the pipe with fire or heat blower, stretch it to proper size and then when connecting use this (super smelly) glue.

This is only a preparation and will change soon :)

16:57 bathroom still unfinished, but you go hand some fairy-lights ffs. time well spent 🤌

[@questionablebutokay]

Unfortunately it drives me really crazy if I only work on one thing. To keep me sane I have to change my work often. Also, it was actually an issue - having no lights at this place. When we came home late, we had to use flashlights to come from the car to the door. Now it's not an issue. Also these lights are operated from the phone, so we can turn them on remotely when we return home. In my case I configured a schedule so they turn on at evenings automatically.
