the city is really weird like its had to get any information from them. and they made me draw plans and wait to get approved for the driveway but the approach permit they just told me $30 and just handed it to me on the spot?

Im going to be pouring my driveway soon and our street has no curbs so i figured it would be simple to just put and expansion joint at the street and pour the concrete up to it. After looking at it the street is not a straight edge as i expected but it tapers down into the ground so im not sure...

It only going to be 40ft long i will be renting a plate compactor to compact it. So i should run a sprinkler on it a while before i compact it?

Im getting ready to pour my concrete driveway soon and the concrete place by me has what they call washout stone that they recomended to use for my base for $7 per yard. Under my garage slab i used 21aa but it was $25 per yard and my budget is running out lol. Just wondering if anybody has any...

I had an acquaintance say he was gonna take it but ive been waiting weeks and the wife wants it gone lol

Just a shell. Im gonna cut it up in sections, maybe 4x8' sections. So hopefully it can be nicely stacked

I finally finished my new 24x30 garage and got moved in. Now im ready to tear down my old 14x20 garage and im trying to figure out what size dumpster i will need. I found a guy on craigslist with a 17 yard dumpster for a great price but he thinks i will need multiple loads. Any body have any...

Okay i finished all the wiring so im gonna schedule my inspection. Only thing im wondering is i have 6 outlets in the ceiling on a switch for my lights. Do the overhead lights have to be gfci protected for code? Ive heard both saying anything out of reach doesnt need gfci but then ive heard it...

Hope i explained that right, so the first gfci will obviously have a line in and then 2 loads coming off that outlet one to the left and one to the right essentially making a t out of that first gfci

Well i got the mobile home feeder and got the sub panel hooked up. Now its time to hook up all the circuits. I know everything in reach has to be gfci protected but would that include my 220 compressor outlet? How can that be done if needed? Another question is can i run 2 loads off of a gfci...

Before i make another mistake, this wire at menards is the correct wire to use right? Just refresher is gonna be 60amp feed to detached garage through conduit 90ft run...

The panel in the house is like 3 feet from outside wall and then up 6 feet. And garage conduit is ran up about 5 feet to box inside . But customer service was good and they returned the wire without conflict lol. Now i need to find out where i can buy mhf because the 2 nearest home depots acted...

So even in the conduit in the house its not allowed? I appreciate the help and hopefully they will return it.

Im worried they have a big sign saying no returns on cut wire. So the wire i got is not acceptable? Or is just the color markings different?
