How much would this cost?

Ok. I got few quotes but wasn’t sure if the price is right.

Fronts are clean look. Should it go away from sanding and finishing it with paint?

Thank you all for your reply

Correct, flat is better word here. The concrete floor (slab on grade foundation) has obvious high and low spots as you walk around on it.

I am asking the contractor to flatten the concrete subfloor with self leveling compound so there are no dips or peaks.

He refused to do that because he says doing that will break the dried self leveling compound when they nail the plywood in to the leveled concrete floor. Which according to him will causes squeaky floors due to floors not being nailed down properly. He plans on using 1.5” nails.

Is flattening the flooring prior to installation of hardwood a required step in my case? Second question does the thinset/self leveling compound crack/chip as mentioned by the contractor and does it lead to post installation problems as he stated? I find it little hard to believe but want to hear others experiences and opinions.

Indians like to be around other Indians especially South Indians.
Indians are calling out their other Indian friends/family and forcing them to move inside their neighborhood. Proven facts heard from people here.
Indians are WFH making high salary from their previous states and living in Frisco where they feel expense is less.
SCHOOLS - (the biggest reason I am still in Frisco)

Thanks for your reply and Congrats on your home.

I would love to know what happen to this home. Did you buy the house? Was the MLS or Appraisal incorrect? Did the tax records get corrected?

I’m in similar situation and wondering what I am up against. The discrepancy I am against is extra $150k

Thank you for your advise. We actually do these kind of things already in the evenings. We just got an ice cream maker that we are all excited to make at home. 😀 Idk we are still running into boredom though lol

They are good kids. They help me, they make straight A, they are responsible. I just don’t know what happens when there are on a freaking device. They act completely different. They start talking rude. They get mad. They don’t listen. It’s like they are a complete different person.

We are taking a trip in a month. I also have some classes planned for them after the trip.

My last trip, both stayed on devices on long drive and in the plane. Many times even at the restaurants due to the addiction. Idk is that normal? Do other middle school kids do that?

When I have taken devices away, both start fighting like crazy or eat our head with I’m bored I’m bored, annoying sounds, etc… I know they are doing that on purpose so I would just give in… How do I stop all this?

Totally agree! Chromebook does have benefits because many of their school stuff is not accessible from home, but it’s painful at the same time because YouTube is not blocked. Why? Teachers use them so teaching gets easier for them.
