After grouting a day earlier, the floor is cleaned and polished, and the shoe molding is reinstalled.

Black grout is messy, but the results are pretty impressive.

The new floor.

The toilet is reinstalled.

The sink required raising the wall anchors, because the granite raised the floor almost a half-inch.

The project is coming together.

Work turns to fixing the electrical. I replaced the light switch with a paddle style that lights up
when it's off, so guests can quickly locate it. The GFCI outlet was wired with reverse polarity,
so that was another screw-up from the former homeowners I had to fix.

The frosted glass shades are cleaned and reinstalled, along with the mirror.

A hidden-screw switch plate dresses up the switch.

The brushed nickel hardware replaces the old polished brass.

The toilet paper holder is relocated to the left of the door.

The display shelf is installed.

The project is nearly complete.
