Curious what the ceiling height on the bottom floor is and what the lowest ceiling height on the 2nd floor is.

Curious on you location so I can get an idea of pricing. Also I live on a Cliff Mine Rd.

So I should make sure they cap the recessed lighting if they do the roof. I know right. Now there is just insulation surrounding the light and air is leaking through there.

Correct no knee walls and no HVAC. I'm assuming if it is done this way they can't seal the ceiling joists at all like around can lights. So could the HVAC be overworked or undersized due to this new room it has to cool and heat. The only advantage I can see in this is the joists are still...

What would make the most sense to me would be to remove the current insulation and spray the ceiling joists and leave the soffits open to vent through the ridge vent. The one guy that came out wanted to spray the roof deck. He was going to remove the current insulation and spray the roof deck...

So my parents are in the process of getting quotes to have there attic of there home spray foamed. The house was build in the mid 70's and has insulation batts in the ceiling joists. I've read about closed vs open cell foam and am good with that part. The part i'm confused on is if they...

DO NOT buy anything with the Husqvarna 40v battery. The tools are great but the batteries die within a year or two.

I'm not expert but why no get a couple sheets of plywood and rip them down to a few inch strips and lay them down to cover a few openings with each strip.

Whats the deal with what im about costco. Is it really that easy to return whatever you want like 5 years down the road?

Im in the same boat. Just purchased a new GE 70 pint last week for $350. Last Frigidaire lasted 3 years. From my research they all really come from one of two places and they are all equally peices of junk that you are lucky to get 2-3 years out of them. I have been lucky that most of mine...

I got a stud finder from Costco that works great on my plaster walls. I believe it is made by Franklin Sensors and is the ProSensor. You'll see it's rebranded often and you should be able to get it for $30. I highly reccomend it.

Looks like I have a Rockler near by that has some classes. You usually see wood lathes for sale for cheap, but now that im looking nothing great is popping up. Ill have to wait for the roght thing to come around.

I'm contemplating about getting a wood lathe. Anyone know of and good youtube series that would help me get started?

You need a garage door threshold seal that goes down on the actual concrete.

How many people have a humidifier on their furnace? Ive always been told they arent the greatest thing for your furnace and they will also produce the mildew smell eventually. I too have the stand alone but dont have the mildew issues mentioned above. Are you using well water?

When I bought my house two years ago my home inspecter pointed out that the breaker box that was installed was know to have breakers that failed to trip. So when I moved in I had the 100 amp panel upgraded to 200 amp. Panel, inspection, nee grounds and new line from meter to panel cost me...

The costco blue one works great on plaster and shows the whole width of the stud.

Thanks guys. Im aware of the collar that should be on there and not to put the tar on the lower part. This was a rental for many years so im working on cleaning all the hacks up. My issue is everything im finding is advertised as 6" but is for insulated pipe which i beleive has and ID of 6"...

I plan on doing the roof above my garage this weekend and im struggling to find the chimney flashing at any store. I purchased what is on the Lowes link but the opening was 8 inches. The OD of my pipe is 6". https://www.lowes.com/pd/SuperVent-6-in-x-24-in-Aluminum-Vent-and-Pipe-Flashing/3572824
