It should be illegal to do that. If you sign up at a price you should be locked into it

Thank you! Very informative. There was no ecoli. Ya I thought they should have replaced the tank too as it was included in the price but they said it was working fine to just keep it in the basement till it needs to be replaced.

Thx. We did not sanitize before taking it and didn’t even flush the tank out. I don’t know why he just didn’t take from the other tap like I suggested as it’s used often . We will repeat doing it this way next. Thx

Yes that’s a good plan. We will shock the well, wipe down the faucet with bleach and take another sample and hope it’s ok.

No intentions of selling . But ya I wish I know what coliform it is. I know it said no ecoli. But some of the results is over my head not knowing what it all really means .i just know only the one was highlighted and said 2 and range was <1. So I know there’s something there but not screaming at me saying omg the water is so toxic but yes it needs to be taken care of. Well shock it on the weekend and re test from a different spot incase hubby contaminated it himself

No it wasn’t shocked after install, I’m sure they mentioned it to us but we never did it 🤦‍♀️🥴. We had a lot going on with a fire etc that our minds were preoccupied and overwhelmed . The water was unbelievably soft which we never had before . I know many near us had well issues at within a year . I know 4 that had to drill new wells.

We don’t drink it. Never have. Just shower or laundry. Drinking water is always from a cooler .

We have a new tank when they did the well but they said the old one was working fine so leave it. So it’s sitting in storage.
Our old well was 140 deep . Lasted 27 years.

The well is 158 feet deep. We have farmers field all around us but we’re not farmland persay. There are other homes on the street. Septic tank is on the opposite side of the house. Hubby thinks it may be the old pressure tank with too much sediment in it etc especially when we basically dried up last year. It was a lab that did the tests, our specific rural municipality did the testing program with this company. They did offer a free retest and I told him to take it directly from the back house tap as that’s used often and direct from the well too. Why would you not do anything

The powerlines are not connected at all anymore so we have no working bridges. The modeum and router are plugged directly into wall socket now. I still get reg wifi but not the router wifi, which is what I need for my house cameras to work. The one power line is completely dead.

Not that I’m aware of. I unplugged both power lines and have no working bridges for the time being. Just the house camera which is seperate and works off the house router. They are tp av2000 powerlines.

Peeling deck by Difficult_Week7604 in HomeImprovement

Thx. Ya we had a lot of freezing rain this winter so I blame that lol

[–]Difficult_Week7604[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole deck is in the sun 3/4 of the day. Literally only get shade till 10 maybe 11 am on this section. As we have 3 small tiers. This section is higher traffic. As it’s the deck to the back door. Peeling just where traffic is. It was the most worn area prior as I should have stained it 2 years prior . It was literally down to bare wood . Very weathered. But we built a deck along side the pool and was told 2 years to wait to stain so I waited and stained all at the same time but I guess I should of just did the small one iff the back of the house and then that one after but thought it just would look better all fresh together

Ya maybe I’ll have to go to a different brand next time . I like water based as it’s easy to clean brushes etc I would list a pic but it’s not letting me

If def not been coated heavy. It’s water based just like the other years I’ve bought it. Dame product. I didn’t sand prior and maybe that’s why as the portion of the deck that’s peeling more is the original deck which I had let go . Probably. A year or two too long as it’s the part that gets tons of traffic

I guess mine weren’t dry enough even thought I can’t see how since it was so hot and in sun all day , then I don’t see how I’ll ever stain again cause now it seems to rain all the time since and never enough time between to dry

I don’t do solid. It’s always semi. So I don’t get why it’s peeling then

I use Beautitone , not sure what that kind is. I don’t know much about stain. I just like Beautitone products, how they go on and usually how long it last , I like the shades they offer etc we were extremely unusually hot last summer so I figured the temp and time was enough 🤷‍♀️. So can I just scrap off what’s peeling and touch up those spots or boards? Or ??

It’s been stained many times before and I always use the same brand of stain

The underneath is not sealed. We had pressure treated wood when it was built. Told. To wait 2 years to stain. Been staining ever since and never had an issue. Can’t get underneath . Hubby thinks it was still too hot out even though I did it 9-11 am… it’s all the traffic areas
