From Dated to Dazzling: Our RV Bathroom Reno!

➝ This Episode:
The most challenging part of our RV renovation was the bathroom. However, we overcame the obstacles and figured it out! We waterproofed the shower, redid the plumbing, learned how to tile, painted, redid the floors, and so much more!

It takes best friends to work tight spaces for long stressful hours. Im so glad you guys are back at it again. The two of you are meant to be. Been married 46 years and im old , i know these things. Lol. Thanks again. 👍

[@GetawayCouple]

Aww, thank you! It was quite the project to work on together but we loved it!

[@jimsowder446]

You guys are amazing me again!

[@billleslie2251]

From what I saw - WOW. You guys have really grown over the years with your skills and confidence. I wasn't totally sure about the foam shower board but It worked.

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you so much! The shower pan has actually held up GREAT during our travels this year.

[@dennissprague5172]

Excellent job of showing, explaining the details of the project.

[@zebmeat]

Wow. You guys are amazing.

[@GetawayCouple]

Thanks so much!

[@roadtriplover.]

Im so impressed with the amount of research you clearly did and how great your attitude is throughout. I can only imagine how frustrating the process was at times. Congratulations! The final result really does look fantastic!

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you! 😊

[@kylepifer9509]

You’II be so happy with your choice to go all the way around to include the sink area!!👍🏻👏🏻

[@GetawayCouple]

We definitely are!

[@EdisonDispatcher]

Beautiful job!😊

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you! 😊

[@rosluvobx]

Looks great good job guys ❤

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you so much 😀

[@SpykersB]

Wow Rae, to see you work on this when I remember your first tiny reno, the stick on bathroom tile in the solitude 😂. Im sure no bathroom mortar ever looked so perfectly sculpted especially in a cramped space! You shall be named the mortar sculptor Queen lol, 👸 🏅 👍🏻🍻

[@GetawayCouple]

Hahaha, we've come a long way since the stick on bathroom tile. I will gladly represent the title of Sculptor Queen 🤣

[@ulugo70119]

That bit about Rae having a baking background and having baked hundreds and hundreds of cakes in her life … was priceless! I mean … I had to go back and watch/listen a couple of times all the while LOL! The “icing on the cake” (pa-dam-pa!) would have been to insert video clip of Rae’s face and look while you described her baking talents! I love watching you guys. Your chemistry is palpable and refreshing! Thank you for sharing all of this content.

[@GetawayCouple]

Aww, thank you for the kind words! I think Jason just misses my baking so he was reminiscing lol. But working with the mortar and grout really did feel like cake frosting!

[@loriejohnson8706]

What an accomplishment!! I know I wouldn't have the skill (I could learn) or the patience to do this. So much work but so cool! Can't wait to see the finished product.

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you! It's definitely been a steep learning curve and we have lost our patience a few times lol. But we're really happy with the end results. Two videos away from our final walkthrough!

[@celiagraham5920]

You guys give me confidence that anything can be fixed.

[@GetawayCouple]

Anything can!

[@WingmanNation]

Looks great! Congrats on the new look.

[@GetawayCouple]

Glad you like it!

[@pamela3722]

I live in a manufactured home. And we have the same kind of plumbing. Maybe you could work on ours. I want a new faucet. Ours are plastic crap. My hot water side squeaks anytime I turn it off or on. And all our plumbing is crimped. So my husband doesn’t want to mess with it. My grandson is friends with a kid, and his dad is his soccer coach. So maybe he will give us a discount. I was putting together some cheap plastic shelves. And I was also cussing like a sailor. And I put one in the guest bedroom. And one in the office. The one in the office fell apart when I moved it. So I got to cuss some more. So I understand. Both the shelves are going in our office to hold all the junk that’s in there. I could only fit the one. And now I get to put it back together again.

[@kelliehubler2110]

Hi! The shower pan and the foam side piece looks super, super flimsy! I hope you can put something on it to make it a lot stronger!

[@GetawayCouple]

It's actually been great! With a sturdy foundation, coating it in RedGuard, and tiling it, it's been awesome. We traveled in it for 6 months this year and it's held up great.

[@jameslarsen5197]

Love the bathroom remodel, Where did you get the tiles from and what brand are they? Want to redo our TT shower/ bathroom and love your results.

[@garykaminski3217]

That foam looks fragile. How do you think it will hold up? One bump to that side panel with a knee and ???

[@GetawayCouple]

The foam itself would dent but now that it has a sturdy foundation and has been coated in RedGuard, then mortar, it's held up really well!

[@TravelWithTheHs]

Rae, When are you coming to Virginia so you can remodel my bathroom. WOW great job and a wonderful how video. Are you guys abale to give us a round about price from start to finish on what the whole job cost?

[@GetawayCouple]

Lol, I think I'm done with bathroom remodels for a long time! The bathroom was the most expensive part of the renovation and we spent a little over $1,600 on it. We have a blog article with the breakdown of that cost if you're interested: www.getawaycouple.com/rv-bathroom-remodel/

[@deanwarnock7304]

Do you have an Ace Hardware near you?

[@GetawayCouple]

We do! We've been frequent visitors of Ace, Home Depot, and Lowe's.

[@slowlane5032]

I don't see anywhere that you tell us WHERE to find the products you used in the bathroom renovation. Like the wall tiles?

[@GetawayCouple]

[@paularandall2798]

When will you be back on the road?

[@GetawayCouple]

We hit the road in May of this year! Renovation content is coming to a close and we'll be editing our travel videos shortly.
