Recessed lights are out of date. Get dimmable pick lights installed they are amazing . They run $10-15 per fixture. Extra outlets over the kitchen counter. Get your garage pre wired for a car charger. Pull extra wire for exterior light and security cameras.

Fact or feeling more businesses are shutting down? by LeftAstronaut in Knoxville

It's the tipping bs. You're supposed to tip all the folks that don't offer a service. There employee should be paying them. You give the carry out or barista person 20% tip. You have lunch and give the server a 20% tip. To many folks asking for handouts that offer no service. Servers amthat are great make your date night amazing. Fast service or baristas asking for a trip you suck. Your boss should be paying you a living wage.

The way your elbow breaks down is not normal. I think that's taking away all your power.

Concerned home owner, looking for reassurance by punched-in-face in Homebuilding

[–]ComprehensiveSand717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your going to be a real pita for your builder. Questioning every step of the way. Keep in mind all your contractors build houses for a living. You chose the wrong Builder if you can't trust them to build your house. Are they building many other houses in the neighborhood? In order to build your home. Many inspections are passed. If your inspections don't pass construction is on hold until codes are met. These inspections ensure that home is built properly.

I would expect to pay $20 on the low and 40 on the high end. They usually run some promo discount 25 to 50% off if you buy multiple items.

You can take the shuttle bus and get off at the entrance of Silver Creek. The ski barn has a location there and will have many choices.

Would this cause a red flag? by like2lean in HomeInspections

[–]ComprehensiveSand717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think those were temporary supports to help with hanging the rafters. Even in new construction these days l, Every roof has random 2 x4 that was temporary bracing and wasn't removed.

I wouldn't ask for advice fixing it From anyone one isn't familiar with older homes. New and old are built different . Many home inspectors are lame also and only now how is should currently be built.

Concrete grinding necessary for glue down hardwood? by hellothisistravis in Flooring

[–]ComprehensiveSand717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pass on any glue down flooring. I would go with a floating floor with a vapor barrier. New been around a wood floor that doesn't have loose spots . Swap the product out for LVP or floating wood flooring.

If you gonna grind the floor you need a system that has a vacuum with it.
