They stripped the tile down to the studs, and discovered the old green board was spongy in places. I guess it was a good thing to have it replaced.
The old "pan" (which is a layer of heavy duty plastic with several inches of cement on top of it) was finally removed. The fellows used mallets, crowbars and brute strength to destroy it.
After taking the rubble to the dump the guys returned to install a new pan (Red this time instead of black) and float it with a few mores inches of cement. The new pan needs to dry a day and then the new greenboard (special drywall for showers) will be installed.
(PS: Try as I might, I cannot get Blogger to post the pictures in the correct order. Therefore the pictures are in reverse order 3-2-1. Ain't this too much fun!?)
