Replacement of pipes and all the plumbing in the bathroom, "Khrushchev"

Repairs in the bathroom waiting for their fate for many years. And as soon as there was a financial opportunity, I decided - to change it is necessary to all. From the soap dish to the toilet. Choosing and buying the tiles and materials, this is perhaps the most harmless and fun (there is everyone who does repairs). But plumbing part deserves a separate story.
What made see in the standard combination bathroom Khrushchev?
- Sink. To begin with, I decided to demolish it, and the word "all". The bathroom sink I now do not have. It's okay, I'm very well thought of.
- Bath. With it, we have fought for a long time because I wanted to install a shower and a lot of the time I spent on her choice. But smart people time suggested that the time will come when the baby will be in the apartment and to bathe in his soul will simply inconvenient. It was decided to leave the old, cast-iron, as all new very poorly kept warm. Subsequently, it is simply repainted.
- Toilet bowl. Since its installation, and the problems started. First time to repair torn down the old and the new is always wandering from place to place. That is when he interfered with - it was removed when not - was connected to sewerage only one corrugation. As a result, flank the rear side was defeated and "gently" sealed. I found out about it a few months later, because periodically dusting rag and without looking for it on the back side is not felt and seen. After completing the repair turns out that the hole prepared for fixing the toilet are not suitable.

Tiler to be drilled for a long time by the brigade left and remake them, they can not - Leave the toilet with a flexi hose, and promised to come back as the find the right tool. As they say three years, waiting for the promise, we are waiting for a little less, until everything is done for yourself.
- Heated towel. To install it, it took me three brigades. Some guys say that after laying the tiles they do not crawl tubes and welded new simply refused. The second group was from the local house management - these said that still more difficult. It is necessary to disable all access to water, to write statements, wait for it to review and plus to all to pay extra for all screws, nuts, etc. separately. The third master claimed that all the old plumbing of the house, he knows "to the tooth", because for a long time he lived in our house. I went and did as was able to say.

Why not attach a tube directly, I honestly do not understand until now. But to alter this work of art no one is taken, and the water is still dripping.

- Pipes. They have certainly been in a terrible state. But what they did after the repair is only slightly better.

Not only that, all made crooked and askew. So also do not understand why it was impossible to weld a new layout to the neighboring riser more aesthetically pleasing.

- Mixer. Even such a trifle in comparison with other accessories in the bathroom and somehow managed to ruin everything. Cranes have been reversed, ie from where the red mark glass cold water and vice versa. Okay, notice - already remade. The mixer is set too crooked and ugly.

And the thing is, that the question of money at that time did not stand. That is, if I had to make a beautiful installation, for example, I would not mind. Such as a mixer or something more original way to beat the tiles - but it now so I reasoned, when necessary to remodel my husband. And then I hoped to "professionals". It turned out, or do not know how they do, whether in need did not have the money. Over time, by the way, too, everything was in order - no whip and no bath and a human toilet bathroom was more than a month. So it is not for nothing that today's artists are asked to show examples of work or repairers selected on responses familiar - not to fall for such a quality team.
