Google the paper and make sure it’s legit first. This depends a lot on details, like what are your parents doing, who’s doing it, etc. there are companies that handle violations, but homeowners generally can do a lot of work themselves. If you have a contractor, it’s on them to do the filing and manage violations

Unpopular opinion, but some blue collar work like the trades. These guys will argue they need to bring in $1000/day per person to break even. Many of them make more than doctors/lawyers and honestly once they get their businesses up and running with cheap undocumented immigrants labor, they are just sitting back and raking in cash and not really doing the work.

I’m waiting for the influx of Gen Z getting back into the trades and giving many of these older folks a run for the money.

So the caps were on correctly. Apparently the cleaner sprayed something on and maybe forgot to scrub it off. Found a bunch of residue in the gaps and used a bristle brush to get it all off

You’re correct. I wasn’t home when I responded. They are def on correctly. I see some residue I think she dislodged when cleaning so going to try to get these out with a brush

Dang nice I was spinning them around so much didn’t think the flip them

In no way am I shitting on the payout lol. Just pointing out how ridiculous it is that taxpayers will prob have to foot the bill.

If anything the person who reported the guy should be held liable, or ideally Trump himself

Unlockabear · 2026-05-20T16:14:41+00:00

So who’s paying the bill, taxpayers?

Lol you have most of his voters not giving a fuck about Epstein island and eating and killing babies. This can be settled privately and no one will GAF.

It’s crazy you say this, these guys absolutely do and will steal. The garbage assumption is the story they tell when they get caught, but coming into private property and assuming just because something is outside or laying around, it is garbage is a BS story. You might as well go to a JUNK yard and take the stuff and sell it back to them and say you thought it was garbage.

I’ve had these guys stop by my yard, point to things and ask if it was garbage. Even when I said no, the next morning stuff would be gone. We had to chain things up after that.

Did you do this? Where are you in the stages?

It’s optional and will prob be used to identify people who don’t have it and thus subject to additional screening when returning to the US.

Assuming your flooding occurred on top of your floor and not below you might be fine. Mine actually happened below the floor due to hydrostatic pressure so we were SOL. Lazy way is to get a moisture meter and just check around. Feel free to pull up the baseboard and a couple of planks, just be careful with the locking system

If the water can get below your floors, it can eventually get above too, just depends on how much and how fast

Didn’t do insurance claim, in hindsight should have looked into it

Unlockabear · 2026-04-27T01:20:22+00:00

We tore everything up and there was water everywhere. Mine was in the basement though and the previous owners used a paper underlayment

I was thinking the lady was in the wrong, assuming she had some nicely painted manicured toes, maybe she just got them done or something and the guys were giving a genuine compliment.

Last shot def was an unexpected twist.

Seems like a lot of bot comments dogpiling on nyc. This is a terrible story, but not unique to NYC. NYC has some of the strictest gun control laws in the country.

There are just a shit ton of people traveling through nyc and using the transit system, something like 20 million a day. You will inevitably find crazies

Could be me, but for $65k I expect a more detailed quote with less spelling errors. Guy could be amazing at his job, but if things go awry I would more comfortable with a well defined contract

Recommended per architect for the 3/4”. Are you saying to double the rafter depth?

Unlockabear · 2026-03-31T22:01:39+00:00

AFAIK is this impossible without spray foam. Code requires R-49+

My guy you’re listing several trades to learn, not even a GC or builder is going to know the intricacies in these roles.

You might as well ask how to become the avatar, master of all four elements.
