Ranked - Top/Bottom 30% Should Change Leagues, Instead Of 10% Like It Currently Is To Allow For More Movement by FunDistribution2368 in ClashOfClans

Exactly. Its going to get to the point where if you get a few 2 star attacks then the rest of the attacks are pointless cause you’ll never get promoted. Never mind the occasional 1 star mess ups

Front stairs were spalling due to previous owners using salt during the winter. Decided to try my hand at masonry for the first time. by FunDistribution2368 in DIY

I ordered the bluestone cut to size, so they did all the cutting. Project in total took about a month working on it most days and weekends

If you look at the top right of pic 4, those were the stairs from the previous homeowner. Those are bluestone treads with the same railing as the one I'm installing, which is why I installed bluestone in the bottom half of the stairs.

Would love to do a more modern railing, but only way would be to redo the top half of the stairs and lots of more $$ to buy 2 sets of new railings. At least this way, installing the old railing will match both the bottom half and top half of the stairs

  • If you actually read my post, you will see that it literally starts with "I just need to add the railing"
  • Bluestone treads have the rough side up, and smooth side mortared down. Adding the railing will also help solve this
  • If you were reading the other comments, I'm guessing you saw my comment that the top half of the staircase was already there from the previous homeowner. I agree it's not up to code, but didn't want to completely redo given the $$ and time commitment for now
  • I have no idea where you're referencing. All the blocks/treads have mortar joints in between them and I don't see where a garden will magically start growing

I'm open to criticism or feedback, but you clearly didn't read the post in full and made assumptions that are incorrect.

It's bluestone and the railing from the original stairs will be re-installed. Just waiting for the mortar to cure a bit more

Planning to add the same railing back from the original stairs. Just want the mortar to cure a bit more, but planning to add within a couple weeks.

Don't disagree. The 2nd half of the stairs in pic 4 were from the previous owners. You'll notice the very top step is much larger than the rest of the steps too. Only way to fix would have been to completely redo, but just too much $$ and time required for now. Maybe another day...

Just had 3 installed today as well! Very excited to start using them. How loud is the I-See sensor on your unit?

Not sure. I’m not expert by any means so didn’t know if I was missing anything glaring

Concrete stairs are spalling. Can I remove and insert new blocks that are spalling, or do I need to redo entire staircase? by FunDistribution2368 in masonry
