I appreciate the dose of reality, folks. Thank you for your insight [emoji846] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Our house is on a steep hill. There’s currently a retaining wall that has been there since the late 70’s when the house was built that provides a parking space about the size of a one car garage. I’d love to finish this by completing the walls on three sides up to the same level and then...

I'm about 20 minutes East of Waldorf.

A little over a year after getting the panels put in, can you give us an update? How have they performed? Did they meet the estimated production that Solar City quoted you? Any issues?

oh nice, that's pretty awesome!

Nah, those are just some buildings I found for sale through a google search. The first one is one of a half dozen or so fire stations sold by Detroit last year. I know Chicago sold some city owned industrial buildings and former fire/police stations in the past couple of years as well. Most of...

I'm curious if there's anything like this out there. There are all sorts of real estate blogs that focus on historic houses and waterfront property, rural property etc...but is there anything that aggregates property like the kinds we all drool over here at GJ? I'm talking about a place that...

I had two jugs eaten through in just a few months...made quite the mess. :(

it's a bit cramped so it's hard to get a picture of everything.

Love the whole project, and the ceiling looks fantastic. The wife wants me to steal that look for our bedroom renovation.

Meh, I'd rather look at that than a cookiecutter neighborhood. At the end of the day it's not my property and I doubt it affects the value of my house. The property across the street from our house has a giant blue half stable (picture a whole stable, then cut it in half but don't close the...

that's really clever. Even without the ability to fold up, that seems like a pretty nice setup.

Not quite sure why you are so confident or emphatic that it's wrong. We've got a 2800 square foot foursquare farmhouse with no duct work in roughly half the house (including the entire 2nd floor). A heat pump and ductwork would run us over $10k (we got estimates when we moved in) and minisplits...
