It was due anyway, looked very 1983. Became a nightmare. Tore out the tile and wall, then found out stores only carry surrounds in white and you have to special order ones in almond (wasn't replacing tub and toilet so had to match). So we ordered one, had to wait a week to get it. UPS delivered it, but didn't drop it off because it was supposedly damaged (we never saw it). Someone along the way decided to mark it "damaged--return for refund" and didn't reship. So we had to order again, this time in store instead of online. Waited another 2 weeks for this one to come in and then another week before I had time to work on it. I painted in the meantime. Then I put the surround up finally. Started showering at last. Then we noticed that when the paint got wet, it started to run off the walls. Turns out the guy at the store gave my wife regular wall paint instead of kitchen & bath. So had to paint again. Then, finally after 2+ months, we got it done.Stuff like this seems to happen to you a lot. Or at least you and Jeffy. Sometimes forget which one's which. Morris twins? Maybe don't pay with cash. Pay with cash? I've been looking for that little slot on my computer that will take it when I order ONLINE.I DNR your actual stories. Just saw you were aggrieved again.I think Dirty Sanchez was the one that got outwitted by a used car salesman.

Why would you keep an almond colored toilet and tub if you are remodeling? That's awful.

in the end, EMAW will always win.

You should build your house entirely of concrete.
