    Detached carport permit hassle in Dallas, TX

    Use FOIA and find out what neighbor reported you too. IIRC they have to have a complaint to issue a citation. At least in Fort Worth it’s that way.

    Lowering garage floor?

    It’s detached. No the sewer is under the driveway requiring it to be taken 90% up. There is a stem wall about 6” tall around the perimeter poured with the floor. I assume footers too based on erosion and one side exterior dirt level being below the floor grade. How far I don’t know so I’d have...

    Lowering garage floor?

    Been tossing some ideas around how to make my garage more adaptable. We are going to have to do some significant concrete work to replace a broken sewer pipe in the future so the idea to sink the garage floor to make the ceilings taller came up. Our garage is up on a hill with an incline up to...

    rhino oil change ramps

    Completely flat they are great. any incline off camber by a few degrees or if you aren’t square on them, they start to smush. This is on nothing bigger than a Range Rover so well under the 12k weight limit.

    Who makes Viper Toolboxes?

    I have had great luck with the two viper toolboxes I have had for years and was looking to add another identical 7 drawer 33” wide box next to the one I have but it seems they are gone now other than a few salon focused ones. I searched and never found a definitive answer but who actually...

    Who's actually broken Chrome sockets with an impact?

    3 or 4 craftsman. 13mm 15mm somewhere around that size with my 3/8 snapon air gun. Long time ago and they were made in USA as far as I remember. That was back when they quit stamping the sizes and it had the acid etched lettering for a short time.

    canless lights

    I’ve been using Torchstar canless LED’s both inside the house and now putting some in the garage. I really like them and the light is even with absolutely no flicker. I did get insulation contact rated though. 3000k inside and 5000k in the garage. I’ll use a lot but I think the more there are...

    I’ve been exclusively buying Philips for the past 5 or so years and have only had one of prob 50 stop working and it was in a old garage door opener and I read that opener kills bulbs so... Usually on Amazon. Hope depot used to sell them too.

    What is this flooring?

    So you can see the puddling in the sand and the yellowing in the top right corner where I have removed it, that’s dog urine and hair from the previous owners I guess. It was wet when I pulled it up. The smell is horrible. And yes I don’t know what kind of job this was, this current tile is...

    What is this flooring?

    Will do but I’m having second thoughts about it. If we are going to have to do so much grinding we are kinda thinking about just removing and having the concrete slab polished and Densified. We can then continue the floor consistency throughout more of the house. Sent from my iPhone using...

    What is this flooring?

    Vacuum, mist and lots of plastic covering stuff with a negative pressure inside the hose to vent it outside too. Major ****. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
