You can restore a rusty sink or tub at home with an inexpensive sandblasting attachment to your pressure washer and some vinegar!! It's a lot of work as you'll see in this video of me learning how to do it as I go... but, it's definitely doable. We also rebuilt a vintage faucet just so we could have the authentic vintage handles in the shower. I had the lucky break that Randy is also a trained plumber, but there are lots of useful how to videos and if you've ever been to a plumbing supply store you know the people who work in them enjoy figuring out the puzzle of which pieces you'll need. You can do it! We also have lots of Randy Report updates, even though we missed several days due to the dangerous air quality from Canadian wild fires (so sad!). The Grand Lady Renovation is moving ahead like crazy with Randy and Jim keeping the Train Rolling.

Lindsey, I so admire your determination on that sink! I certainly would have given up. Lol. It was so nice seeing all the new faucets. You have done a wonderful job picking out era appropriate fixtures. If I ever redo my home, I want you to decorate it. 😊❤

Randy is truly a Godsend. Watching things start to really flow and come together is so much more calming and enjoyable, watching everything progress. I'm really happy to see your hearts heal and the joy come back to you both. You and Jim had so many of us heartfelt and concerned. Prayers have been answered and you all have an angel working with you. That wonderful huge sink looks absolutely fabulous. The color is perfect. Fantastic job! Love your choices on bling, tiles and colors.

Randy appears to be a good contractor and easy to work with. I couldn’t be happier for you two, you’ve been through hell with this project and it’s good to see it moving along so well. Good job on the sink Lindsay, that was a lot of work. I’m excited to see it installed.

Hold the phone. Are we talking about and INSTALLING hardware and fittings!? Never thought we'd get here. Seeing the handles for the steam shower get put in place was inspiring. So charming, too. I felt your pain, too, with the sink rust removal. Was appropriate that I was editing the restoration of the dressers my great-grandfather built (shameless plug) while watching this video, because I remembered all the pain - mixed with the great knowledge and insight - I went through bringing them back to their former glory. You inspire us all.

It used to be common (back in ye olden days) when connecting Iron sewer pipes together, that they'd pack a seam with rope (or something similar), pack it and then melt lead into it to seal it.

I felt your pain when it came to getting all that rust off the sink. It does look wonderful though and your perseverance paid off even though, as you stated, it would have been easier, cheaper, and less time consuming to pay a professional to do it. Won't tell you that they would have had it done in a day 😉
