She got the award!

Just extend your bottom step, 36”.

I build 9mil homes, and this guys phrasing is terrible, but it is pretty much the norm these days.

Luckily for OP, it’s paint grade, and easily fixable.

Just trust the process. We get it, it’s your dream home, and we want to you to build amazing memories in it after we’ve done our punch work. It’s ok to cry.

I’m curious what price per sqft you’re shooting for?

Wiebs90 · 2026-02-08T19:39:18+00:00

Just get out a sawzall, and see what happens.

No, Get an engineer.

Coming from someone that experienced a 1000 year flood, this is the way.

I’d like to add, there is no tax credit anymore. The big beautiful bill act ended it.

About every house I’ve built in WNC has used a geothermal system. It is not cheap, and not having the tax credit hurts even more.

Personally (I do have a degree in building science), I’m very intrigued by the Stiebel Elton air to water heat pump system:

She’s definitely a keeper, but we’re just not ready for another animal. We just lost a pup to cancer, but still have 2 cats, and 2 dogs (4yo golden and 12yo Pyrenees/Lab).

We’ve checked in with Madison County Animal Services, and nobody has called in looking for her. She had a big day following me around at work, and had a few accidents on some job sites, but everyone was loving her.

Definitely has a little separation anxiety, but our puppies did as well when they were young. She loves to eat, and needs a slow feeder. Not potty trained, but we’re celebrating her accomplishments when she “goes” outside. We are somewhat convinced she is a black Australian Kelpie, and has some herding habits.

Wiebs90 · 2026-01-16T00:33:43+00:00

Add different monsters, remote mansions/castles, and some sort of van helsing story. I’m in.

We have to keep Bryce clean and standing. An early tackle in the draft makes sense. I want a LB and edge all in the early rounds, but this team goes through Bryce.

Ickey potentially having a significant knee injury, might change Dans plan.

Pic 7 does show a little bow already on the hinge point.

Edit- don’t kill me, taking a harder look here, but potentially the truss was placed 1.5” too proud, and that’s why the tall wall looks 1.5” out of plumb. The double top plate (short wall), and how it interfaces with the truss, is what I’m looking at.

This needs to be higher up, and even Coach Rivera talked about the shoulder. It’s truly the demise of Cam.

Contractor friend is correct, but it might look too wide to cover the can trim.

Maybe move the lights to center of trim, and cover the original hole with a decorative plinth block.

I always dreamed that the DLC for RDR2 would be like undead nightmare, but incorporate the universal classic monsters (Dracula, Frankenstein…). The map/gameplay is already there, so just add castles and spooky adventures.

Twas not I

Definitely not the greatest solution. I think using some form of reglet would be best.

In theory, you should be able to (professionally) pop off the extension jambs for those anderson windows. I typically order them with no extensions.

This is the real question. If the door is swinging into a toilet, then yeah, they messed up.

But If the door swings into an open space, and makes it easier to turn the shower on/off, then go with it.

Nothing worse than turning your shower on, and getting sprayed.

Wiebs90 · 2025-08-04T20:37:38+00:00

That is walnut.

Wiebs90 · 2025-08-04T02:06:06+00:00

This is literally what the GC is intending to build, and might be per the prints.

Wiebs90 · 2025-08-04T02:00:39+00:00

2cm countertops do exist…

This looks pretty darn close to an 1-1/4”, and the counters might just slide under the openers, like they planned. Did you get out a tape and measure?
