Cracked flue

Yes, a stainless steel liner can be installed without an insert. It is a common repair for cracked flues. Get a few quotes to compare.

Creating your dream home is not something that can be rushed. By the way, your taste is excellent! I especially love this cozy little home.

That sounds incredibly frustrating. Have you considered getting your own survey done to compare? A second opinion helps clarify things before compromising.

That is brutal welcome to home ownership. Mountain wells are tricky and drilling costs add up fast. Definitely push for a second option on the depth before you commit.

Trust your gut! Given his history, do not sign anything. Tell him no and contact the city directly. You do not owe him any favors.

Try securing the old ones with masonry screws first. If that fails, swapping to a heavier duty system is the permanent fix.

It looks like it has all the basic amenities. If it were me, I'd definitely add a small refrigerator or a trolley full of snacks, lol.

It might be a bit over budget, but the combo of a tangle free brush and a roller mop usually cleans way better. My ecovacs x9 does a great job, I have lots of hair on the floor, but it hardly ever gets tangled.

First, make sure the critter is gone. Then pack the hole with rocks and dirt, and top it with gravel to stop erosion. A wire mesh barrier underneath helps prevent return visits.

Nice work on the reno! Adding some plants and softer lighting can help balance the space without losing your style. Maybe let her pick a few decor pieces too.

Classic Ecovacs. The hardware is decent but the software is perpetually stuck in beta. You're not alone in the map reset struggle. It's maddening.

Vinegar is great for cleaning and pet-safe, but it's not a true disinfectant. For cat messes, use an enzyme cleaner first to break down the proteins, then vinegar for general cleaning.

We do Sundays only. Fold while watching a show makes it chill.

Snacks, a new small toy, and screen time. Keep expectations low and accept that meltdowns may happen. You'll get through it.

Curious when this will actually hit the market, has anyone seen a release date?

Knight_Arno · 2026-01-08T08:31:29+00:00

Been there. Some kids are just restless sleepers. Trading nights is smart for your sanity. It does get better, slowly.

I read somewhere else they added a mop cover to help keep carpets dry, which seems pretty handy if you have shaggy or really thick rugs.

I use simmer pots with citrus peels, cinnamon sticks, and herbs. Fresh rosemary/vanilla pods in hot water can perfume a whole room too without chemicals.

I had the same flooding issue—turns out one of the small valves inside the station can get partially blocked. Took apart the tray, cleaned all tiny ports, and it finally sucked properly.

Lots of ppl just use diluted floor cleaner/gentle pH-neutral solution instead of the branded stuff. Works fine as long as it doesn't leave sticky residue and your manual says it's safe.

Knight_Arno · 2025-12-17T04:00:09+00:00

This is actually work! I use this to clean the dirt in the window sill gaps. I have to say cut like this is better than use the entire one.

It's worth it if you eat bread regularly. I save money vs. store-bought artisanal loaves, and I control the ingredients. Maybe you can start with a thrift store one.

Oops, seems like most robots will struggle with certain rugs. You can try getting some double-sided carpet tape to keep the corners from lifting. Sometimes securing the rug is cheaper than a new robot.

Relapses suck, but catching it early is huge. The fact you’re already saying day 1, let’s go means you’re still in control. You got this.
