Looks like an almond tub, vanilla tiles with a dark green, marbled look inset. I assume that's wall paper, have you experimented with removing any to see what lies below? What color is the toilet and is it changing? What type of vanity top are you considering? Can you get a few more pictures with a bigger view point and possibly more light so we can see the colors more clearly?

Notth Twxan, here are more pics. Everythin, with the exception of the tub and tiles will be replaced, (toilet, vanity and medicine cabinet.

the walls were sponged with a peach colored paint; it’s not wallpaper.

the vanity I am thinking about is a white, but not sure if I should do a white marble top with backsplash or maybe almond.

the paint color I was thinking was the Stonington Gray, but that may not work with the almond and green.

Check out this article - https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/reglazing-tile-transformative-fix-for-a-dated-bathroom. Maybe replace the shiny brass fixtures and brass wall plates with something more contemporary.

Thanks Pearl; I have read about reglazing and have been thinking about it pretty seriously for the tub and tile surround. The only problem with this that I read it may not be that durable.

I may have to rip up that tile floor to install new tiles.

I think you could stay very simple and match the color of the "white" of the tile. Bring a little of the green into a tub mat or soap dish or towel...that way its just clean and fresh until you can really change it out.

The reglazing is not a bad idea. Just make sure the tiles are secure. You wouldn't want to spend the money on something that won't last.

Good luck!

I love the tiles for a retro look which is very popular now. That is a green diamond in the tile? Looks black in picture. A tan color wall would compliment the white and green or ask for suggestions at your local paint store.

it is a hunter green in the tiles. If I keep the tiles as is, I would still want to reglaze the tub, for an updated look.

Maybe just give the room a good scrubbing, get some estimates to turn it into what you would really want to have and then live with it until you get close to gathering up the money to do it the right way.

If you are already paying to redo the vanity , top , faucet, toilet etc... that's halfway there...

I see a lot of time consuming work needed around the tub. The joint between the tub and tile should be only caulk, but yours looks to have been repeatedly overdone badly and that makes me wonder what is under all that. If that can't be cleaned up and properly sealed, the whole keeping the tile/tub plan is in danger. It also looks like the tub/floor joint is grout, rather than caulk. A change of plane usually needs a flexible material.

The vanity is misconfigured, with the sink too close to the wall, so even a repaint of the vanity would need to include a new top. Also, there doesn't appear to be sufficient space between the vanity and the toilet. I'd recommend a pedestal sink, but that might mandate the floor replacement if the tile doesn't continue under the vanity...plus you lose the storage.

Is their any storage in the entry area? If not, perhaps a cabinet above the toilet could replace some of the vanity storage and a new mirrored medicine cabinet could top up the storage,

As others have noted, doing it all but "tub and tile surround" might be pennywise and pound foolish. If the floor tile is coming out, you might as well go the full monty on the bath surround.

Thanks North; and I do admit, I thought the same thing you did, but was trying to kid myself in avoiding a complete gut job.

I will remove the tiles around the tub, the tile floor, all old hardware, toilet, vanity and medicine cabinet.

I am torn between keeping the tub, but reglazing it, or remove the tub and replace it with a walk-in shower. Uggghhhh

maybe do a tub surround? You could probably also put down a vinyl floor over the tile to freshen it up.

***update*** I decided to go with a full bathroom renovation. Thanks for everyone‘s recommendation.

here are some pics of the full renovation.

a couple of questions for the experts.

1) should I swap the position of the toilet and vanity? basically move the toilet towards the window and the vanity near door.

2) tile selection - below are some of the photos. The lighter time would be on the shower walls, the stones will be the shower floor and the niche. Right now the big question, do we go with a herringbone pattern with the 4x12 tile? Or go with the larger 12x24 dark gray tile im the photo.

As for the paint, we want to go with Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray. Both vanity and toilet will be white.

any suggestions?
