Good looking remodel ,,and you know what? The greatest improvement you did was
what you did with the window as the windows in 90% of bath rooms that are behind the tub cause dry rot and ruin the wall around them ..
I know this because I have replaced more than I can count . By redoing the window flush and water tight and not let the water set on a sill and find it's way into the framing and sheetrock ,or any wall board is the key to stopping water damage to most bathrooms around a tub shower..

Nice before and after pictures ,, being an old retired carpenter I still like to see good work done . Larry
