Gainsborough Second-Floor Bathroom Renovation in Toronto

This second-floor bathroom renovation at Gainsborough in Toronto combines white subway tile, a black-and-white hexagonal mosaic floor and a freestanding bath. Artifex Reno’s project photographs show how the classic finishes come together, from the stripped room to the tub and console basin.

Freestanding bath beside the window above the black-and-white mosaic floor.

Classic tile, carefully arranged

White subway tiles wrap the walls and frame a recessed niche. Below, the mosaic floor uses black accents and a dark border to define the room. The freestanding bath sits beside the window, while the white console basin and exposed metal frame keep the fittings visually light.

Following the bathroom rebuild

The opening photographs show exposed wall framing before the boards and sealed joints are installed. The next stages record rows of subway tile being set with levelling clips, the niche taking shape and the mosaic floor laid around the plumbing openings. These close-up views make the sequence of the tile work visible alongside the wider room photographs.
