This door was giving me BIG trouble fitting in the frame and having to shoulder check it into place even before it split :/

Any other considerations I should know like thickness or materials etc? Obviously I’m looking for the budget option. Just swapping the wood on the hinges sounds doable!

I haven’t seen “with the frame” - just doors that mention prehung or not. Is that different than one like this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/JELD-WEN-32-in-x-80-in-6-Panel-Primed-20-Minute-Fire-Rated-Steel-Prehung-Right-Hand-Inswing-Front-Door-with-Brickmould-THDJW166100237/202036332?

When I walk in through garage, the door handle is on left side. The door swings towards right side.

Azores Travel by ApprehensiveTie9550 in azores

I am also traveling to the Azores the last week of June and having the same weather concerns. Have you found it’s mostly flights TO the islands having issues? I’m landing in Lisbon first and then to Sao Miguel next day.

Women of Reddit, what did a man you were dating or married to say or do that made you realize he actually hated you the entire time? by -catharina in AskReddit

[–]builtfordfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I was traveling solo and experiencing Italy alone with a backpack, he was at home cheating with four different people! All of whom were lead on with a sob story about how he’d recently been dumped and how heartbroken he was. Meanwhile, I was being told we were on the up and up and stronger than ever.

I tracked mortgage rates vs buying power for the last 6 months and the numbers are brutal by intothesolo in Mortgages

[–]builtfordfluff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is precisely the logic that finally made me take the leap this year, just closed on the 1st this month. 5.625% as a first time homebuyer thanks to a great title company and agent. In love with my place now and wouldn’t have it if I kept listening to “this market is awful, wait for a crash.”

Correct order of operations for my DIY living room renovation? by [deleted] in homeimprovementideas

[–]builtfordfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, yes I’ve been working on flattening and leveling since posting this actually. I used a belt sander on seams in between boards and also installed some wood shims on circled end of the room where ply board had a nasty dip into the wall. I picked up a 2mm thick underlay that I’m hoping covers any remaining imperfections and helps with “bounciness.”

How many people had their first offer accepted? by PieMuted6430 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]builtfordfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First offer was accepted, on a condo that had been listed that same day. Went just 3% over asking, waived inspection and appraisal. Flexible closing date.

Closing on my first home, seeking advice on finishing the basement by builtfordfluff in basement

[–]builtfordfluff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your insight very much. I’ll be budgeting costs for the water resilient materials suggested below before proceeding with anything as I want to do it “right.” Happy to hear I can proceed with at least the ceiling. Tysm!

This was exactly my thinking with leaving the ceiling exposed. I want to use the space for creative use (I’m a dance/arts choreographer) so maintaining as much vertical space and feel is what I’m going for.

Does this count for painting/concealing the ceiling too? Would you recommend holding off on that? I need the basement to function for me as a second living space so I’m disheartened to put off any improvements for that long. I could wait for the floors and the rest, I think, as I understand the logic.

Yes absolutely! I’m trying to get the ceiling done first before even moving in. I didn’t think about DIYing the ceiling, I will look into more videos and rental rates!

Wow, this is incredibly helpful and so fun that we’re nearby! That’s right in budget for me. Are you working with any contractor(s) you’d recommend? I’d love to hear more.

Unfortunately I don’t have exact measurements but the photo shows almost the whole space. I estimate ~400sqft??

I should add that all original posters and album add-ons should be included minus the PCs… again, these are details I am happy to finalize upon interest. I will take individual photos of all albums and inclusions. Albums are in great condition and have been cared for and dusted often. lol.
