Worst. Title. Ever.

I came this close to titling this post "To Pee or Not to Pee," but I couldn't make myself type it.

But that is the question.

Well, sort of.

So I'm ready to spend a billion dollars, give or take, to refinish the basement. One thing I'd never considered asking for is a bathroom in the basement, because I didn't have a rough-in for the plumbing. But the contractors are saying "So?"

They're more than happy to jackhammer up the basement floor and do the plumbing work, and that's making me start to think, hey, why not? It's just a few more days and a few more dollars, give or take. They'll even throw in a shower.

Interestingly, it's Victor saying that putting holes in the floor sounds like a bad idea. And of course I'd agree that holes in the basement are bad, but holes that get filled in with plumbing and covered with tile and end up under brand new bathrooms...that's good, right? A shower for guests, that's good, right?

Because the basement is completely below grade, we could never have a bedroom down there. That wouldn't be legal, nor would it be safe. With my fire phobia, I would not even consider having somebody sleep in a basement without a door to the outside. But my friends at work have all said that when I go to sell the house, having the bathroom in the basement will be very appealing to buyers. Mothers of teenage boys seem especially eager to shut their sons in the basement. When I kept reiterating the lack of egress, they said "Nic...just because you can't sell the house calling the basement a bedroom doesn't mean people won't want to use it that way."

So really, my only conflict now is that someday after I sell this house, which may even be when I'm dead and my nephew sells the house, somebody is going to end up perishing in a fire because they decided to illegally live in the basement because I put in too nice a full bathroom.

But for the next 50-some years, I'll have a convenient place to pee.

Decisions, decisions.

Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the web the easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while people consider worries that they just don't know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people could take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
