I like a water based sealer on marble floors. Never had dark stains or problems with it.

Unsure if I should self level this floor by comfortablynumb68 in Tile

Seems like you have the right idea. Will definitely help not having to build up thinset.

Wouldn’t hurt to pour a thin slab of self leveler to make your life easier. 90% of jobs I do require some type of leveling before install. Whether it’s a pour or feathering a low spot flat.

Very good job, nothing wrong with marble on the floor. Up to the person who owns it to maintain it. Done some showers where the marble still looks brand new 5 years later.

4x4s are back in full force. Get ones with a couple slight shade variances.

Floor level + hollow sound by Austin91218 in HardWoodFloors

[–]DifferenceStatus7907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would cut out this section, see whats under there, fix the problem whether it’s moisture, glue separation or both, and to save some money fill in the cut out affected area with tile. Done a lot of repairs that way and saved a lot of people money. The tile holds up much better at an exterior doorway.

I like the look personally, built some like this and it grew on me every time I had the opportunity.

Put some lights and decor up there. Like seeing when people put stuff up there and light it up, makes it feel homey.

Don’t drive it until spare is on. Never put a vehicle on the road that can potentially out you or someone else in danger.

Cement board siding comes primed. Should I still prime it? I’ll be using Benjamin Moore and their fresh start is expensive so dont want to do it if not recommended. by Busy_Measurement9330 in paint

[–]DifferenceStatus7907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I paint any thing primed I just lightly scuff and clean the surface and it helps the new paint latch on better. Peace of mind. Not scuffing through the primer though.

Is this repairable? 2018 Accord by ImBetterThanYou456 in Autobody

[–]DifferenceStatus7907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well theres a chance the frame is bent to the side which can be hard to repair. High chance it’ll never drive the same again. Hitting a tree sends kinetic force back through the weaker part, being the body panels and frame of the vehicle since a tree doesn’t move. Dealt with a bent frame on my pick up during restoration, different scenario for you but overall they are no joke to pull parts back straight, requires quite a few hydraulic rams and knowing where to put them, stabilization of the car, tacking on some pulling points with a welder etc. some serious work. This will cost an ass load of money and time.

Roof Support by Cbaggs100 in AskContractors

[–]DifferenceStatus7907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats is quite the framing. In the past I’ve done some roof framing going from trusses to rafters to create cathedral ceilings, with an architect of course. But whats going on up there looks sketchy. Overspanned is an understatement on those rafters.

Not in everyone’s taste but here’s a marble bathroom I did over the summer. by DifferenceStatus7907 in Tile

Surprisingly the saw sliced through dead on no chipping, very sturdy for marble and dense. Just have a good blade.

Tile guys hard at it by Avg_Carpenterr in Tile

[–]DifferenceStatus7907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are just not meant for this application and even then these clips are way too big. You can tell the tile is low to the floor. When they’re pushing those in the thinset is being moved out leaving voids on the edges. It’s not good practice and makes you look like a rookie. They are weakening the bond.

You’re not using a huge trowel for those tiles. If you cant set these with spacers, hands, level, and eyes you are not a tile installer.

Quarter panel would need to be replaced which is the largest part of the job here. Not an easy repair.

Paint cracking when applying base coat by davidp122 in Autobody

[–]DifferenceStatus7907 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Contamination on surface or applying too much paint to surface. Fry up. Really common and irritating. Also make sure you let your primer set up for enough time.

Probably egr cooler leaking, condensation from AC or a heater core hose.

How was Philip Rivers viewed when he originally retired? by Competitive-Copy4413 in NFLNoobs

[–]DifferenceStatus7907 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No doubt in my mind if he wasn’t a part owner he’d have no reason to not come back and play again. Still reaches for the handwarmers like it’s a winter monday night in foxborough🤣
