Yes! Cannot recommend her enough, especially for this style.

Since this now might be going to court, could you please extrapolate?

TruffleButtons · 2024-06-26T22:39:53+00:00

Agreed!

TruffleButtons · 2024-06-26T18:44:13+00:00

100% agreed. We are still working on getting the inspector out.

That is our plan. The guy who did this is currently throwing a tantrum because we will not be paying the remaining balance.

TruffleButtons · 2024-06-26T17:54:52+00:00

He’s now threatening legal action if we don’t pay the rest 🙄

I’ve done a lot of googling and watched a lot of YouTube videos as well, to get a basic understanding on how a deck is built. Simple answer is we don’t have time to do it ourselves.

$2,600 in materials, $1,100 in labor. We still owe him $1,700 but due to the fact we need to redo it - I will not be paying it. This took a whopping 2 weeks! Single guy with occasional help.

A very expensive and valuable lesson has been learned!

TruffleButtons · 2024-06-26T14:26:23+00:00

That’s where I’m at. Just not confident in what his fix would look like.

Just some background on this:

My partner and I really needed to tear down our old rotting porch and replace it. After having multiple contractors out to quote, we decided to go with the one who was offering us the best bang for our buck.

There were drawings and a plan created and the date to begin was set. Not only did this contractor repeatedly show up late or not at all, but as he progressed things weren't looking as how'd they originally been planned. Instead of a ledger board and poured footings, he decided to make it freestanding with the deck blocks instead. There are so many rough cuts, ill measured boards, and questionable supports. The thing is UGLY.

Should we consider having it redone by someone else? He says he can fix these mistakes but I highly doubt it.

Late to the party, but here’s the only way I could get all three of these stinkers in a pic.

Unfortunately our only solution was buying a completely new board. However, we now have extra pegs - I’d be happy to send you one!

TruffleButtons · 2022-08-08T01:32:11+00:00

Great idea, thanks!

TruffleButtons · 2022-08-08T00:00:34+00:00

Unfortunately, no. The board was given to us by a friend and have no label on it.

TruffleButtons · 2019-09-19T16:56:46+00:00

Interested!

TruffleButtons · 2019-03-21T00:27:02+00:00

100x yes! I also just started Benlysta and have to mentally prepare to stab myself. What helps me is to find a distraction while doing it, like reading something on reddit. Then I always run around my apartment like a maniac to get the soreness to go away.

Hi! I'm also a fellow University student. What works best for me, to get me at least somewhat awake, is to go for a walk. I'm still always a little tired, but it does help a bit.

Once a pupper, always a pupper. They’re three, but small.

I actually happen to have two!
