    Sealing up soffit & ridge vents to stop noise

    Sorry for the double post for some reason it won't let me edit the original. I personally recommend Second Skin. Not sure what their pricing is for something like what you're looking for. Are you studs exposed? Do you need/want insulation anyway? Rockwool is a little expensive but works wonders...

    Sealing up soffit & ridge vents to stop noise

    Start with this. Approach them. Tell them you need / want to do your thing but don't want to piss them off too much. Ask them if any of it bothers them, and which part of it. 90% of the time if they know you care enough to ask them how to make it better, they'll say its fine and deal with it. If...

    Guys came yesterday. Jacked up the right exterior wall about 8" to repair the sag from rot and termite damage. Replaced the window on that same wall. Removed the interior wall between the garage and lean-to (the original exterior wall at one point) and put a new beam straight across. Added a new...

    What do with left over wire from from electrical jobs?

    I've always used Dabal in Garfield. Good guys there, not sure what their current rates are off hand. Drive in on the scale, dump, re-weight and get cash with a receipt. Although I'm in the process of rebuilding my garage myself if you're interested in donating to the cause.... I can make a...

    Installing Detached Garage sub panel

    As long as your house panel can support it just do it. I am actually getting the material to do the exact same thing in my garage. I am in Jersey so I'm not sure the difference with your codes and Ours however an 18" trench is highly recommended. My angle on it is I already have electric out...

    I'm from Belleville (now live in Nutley) so you get my drift here. Seems like a pointless common sense rant to many people on here unless you live here and understand the other side of it. Lots here are all 50x100 as per code but I'm on 68x138 because my house was hand built in 1925 by two...

    As per the town, if i do any work requiring any permit, the whole thing will have to be taken down and rebuilt to current code. Thats what i feared and that's what has come true unfortunately Sent from my LM-V350 using Tapatalk

    Welp... Anything i want to do will require a permit here. I cant even take down the damaged wall. So... Going to jack up the sagging side, rebuild the bottom portion of that wall and sure it up to the existing 2x4s. New beam where I'm going to take the wall out and sure up the beam in the...

    20x50' area roof needs emergency leak repair-any fast/ghetto options for one season?

    I understand you want to cover it all, but how many actual spots are we talking? Post some pics. Believe it or not, you would be amazed at what FlexSeal can accomplish. Where the leaks are, is the roof exposed from the underside or can you not get to it? Flex the inside and outside. If youre...

    Garage Door height restriction - creative solution suggestions?

    Need to find the verbage of the "ordinance" if it states visually maintaining the 10foot then you're set. If it explicitly restricts the size of the opening, then i would say you're SOL. Awesome design/idea tho! That's slick

    Dont mind the mess I took everything down from the loft in preparation while i had my buddy over to help. The stairs would be the back left wall where the yellow bow bag currently is Sent from my LM-V350 using Tapatalk
