Not my proudest bathroom renovation


Okay… I can’t believe I’m posting this, but I need Montreal to understand the psychological damage this project has done to me. I’m a licensed contractor and normally I build classy, sensible bathrooms. Bathrooms with one toilet. Like a civilized person.

I was hired by an older Italian couple to redo their bathroom. Super nice people. On the first visit, the wife tells me that her husband takes way too long in the bathroom every morning and it causes arguments. She's sometimes late for work because of him.

Her husband didn’t deny it and didn't talk much during the visit

So they decided the only real solution was to install two toilets in the same bathroom so they could both get ready in the morning…

I suggested Just adding another bathroom to the property but they didn't want to because it cost more. Anyhow, they chose the "extra toilet" option on my quote.

I just went to get my cheque and took photos of this bathroom with two toilets side by side.
I’m honestly embarrassed to even show it. I don’t know if this is something I should put on my website or just pretend it never happened.

They’re happy with it, which is what matters… I didn't even ask for a google review out of fear they post a picture. What do I do… I still can’t believe I actually built it.
