    Tire marks on NEW RaceDeck floor !!!

    Hmm... that just looks like what happens when you drive a car on tiles (especially light beige tiles). I don't know man. If those kind of marks are a concern a black or grey tile might have been better.

    If you were going to rewire your house, what would you plan for?

    Personally, I would want a coax and a cat6 network port in every single room of the house. Not just the areas that look obvious to placement for a TV, but every single room. Even the bathroom. The cost of doing that is very minimal in the grand scheme of things and you will never be limited for...

    Epoxy vs Tile flooring

    The easiest way to look at this is to look at what the professionals do. Think about your last trip to the dealership when you took your car in for service. Typically, the dealership has a 'receiving' area where you pull your car into for inspection. This is where the service staff have a look...

    How should I tie up my porch build?

    I like it, but possibly a set of cascading stairs off each end of the porch instead? That way the Mrs. can keep her bush and it will make it looks nice and symmetrical.

    How should I tie up my porch build?

    Definitely needs skirting around the bottom and railing between the two outerposts, directly behind the bush. Also looking up you need to sheet the underside of the roof, either with ply or some T&G cedar. It also looks like it needs more light - either ceiling mounted or wall mounted fixtures -...

    Lost my dad this year....mom and i need help

    Hey Agent Iriquos. Best advice I can give if you're looking for your mom to be properly taken care of and to never have to worry about the house mechanicals is for her to buy an HVAC system from the guys that are known for it. Lennox, Trane, Carrier, Tempstar, Bryant (in that order). It gets...

    My First Sub-Panel

    There's no way the old panel was ever inspected. No inspector would ever pass an installation with the main feed wires coming into the box like that.

    Toolbox drawer liners – on the cheap

    Local Princess Auto sells used Treadmill belts that people can cut up and use as drawer liners. Usually about $9 for one of those 10'x3' rubber belts, enough to cover most tool cabinets.

    Cable and telephone in the same conduit?

    All low-voltage cables can be run in one conduit. Phone, Ethernet, Cable, etc. are all low voltage, you can run as many as you can fit into that conduit. Just as long as the high voltage line is in a seperate conduit & the two conduits are spaced as far apart as possible to avoid electrical...

    New shop-Need insulating advice

    Treat that shop as if you were insulating a basement. Buy 2" Foamboard insulation, with the shiplap edges so they overlap. Glue the boards directly to the concrete block with foamboard-approved construction adhesive and then tape all of the joints to make a solid thermal break. Then stud over...

    New shop entrance. What do you think?

    I love the look of the door! Are you worried at all about security? Seems like it would be fairly easy for someone to punch out one of the glass squares and just unlock the deadbolt.

    Garage build - Modern, Shed Roof, Rain Screen Siding

    Haha, I love the fact that all the rainwater is going to be channeled back towards the neighbour's yard. I'm hoping you have good relations with them next door? In the event of a major downpour where the eaves get plugged with leaves, they could end up with some water issues in that little...
