<div><em><strong>zboyet</strong> asked: </em><br/><br/><br/>I am doing a bathroom renovation and have ripped the tiles off of the drywall and plan to put up new tile. I am wondering if I sand the drywall smooth and maybe apply something to the surface if I can use the existing drywall. While taking off the tile it took off a fair amount of the paper but only in a few places is the white powder showing. It is not really a big deal if I have to use new stuff since I have worked with drywall before but I do not have a truck so it makes it tricky to acquire without bugging a friend.<br/><br/></div>

<div><em><strong>K1243</strong> asked: </em><br/><br/><br/>I&#8217;m moving into a small (NYC small) 1 bedroom basement apartment with 1 bathroom with a standing shower (no tub). The entire bathroom needs to be redone with ceramic tiles and the standing shower stall was previously installed incorrectly and needs to be totally replaced. In addition the apartment currently has nasty linoleum flooring and I am thinking ceramic tiles are the best option for new flooring since it can get quite humid. How much do you think this will cost (I know I need measurements&#8230;forthcoming&#8230;but I&#8217;m looking for a ballpark). Also is it wise to have someone like Home Depot come in and do all the tiling work? Any suggestions appreciated&#8211;I&#8217;m new to this!<br />
I should add: this is a unique situation where I am friends with the building&#8217;s owner and worked out a deal where I am going to take care of renovations to the apartment. There is no issue of legality or anything like that.<br/><br/></div>

<div><em><strong>Arrow</strong> asked: </em><br/><br/><br/>Hi, We just bought a condo, and have very, very little money to renovate the bathroom.</p>
<p>All four walls look like they at one time had thick wall paper on them, which was later torn off.  Then, someone painted right over the wallpaper glue.  The texture is horrible and flaking off all over the place.</p>
<p>My worry is that if I sand it, won&#8217;t I damage the drywall beneath the glue?  What is the technique to adequately remove the painted over glue so that I can paint it fresh?  </p>
<p>Thank you for your help!<br/><br/></div>

<div><em><strong>me</strong> asked: </em><br/><br/><br/>We&#8217;re extremely fortunate to have found a FREE double sink/vanity for our bathroom project. It&#8217;s going to save us close to $1,000 &#8212; wow!</p>
<p>But here is the thing&#8230; the counter and sinks are black marble, and the cabinets will be painted white. We&#8217;re purchasing new faucets. We&#8217;re not exactly fans of a super contemporary look, and we&#8217;re afraid the black and white will push us into that direction. So we&#8217;ll will need to soften up the rest of the space. </p>
<p>This is a COMPLETE bathroom renovation, including brand new flooring, lighting, toilet, and stand up shower. So let your imagination go wild! Can you help me dream up something spectacular? Examples/pictures would also help if you happen to know of any online, thanks!<br/><br/></div>
