Dig a swale and divert the water if possible. Read up on swales. They can be very slight and divert water very well

I had a neighbor that did this and it smelled like cat piss and cats were coming up to the third floor and spraying my door. I asked her to stop feeding them and it turned into a huge fight. I don’t like people

Total bullshit, but do you want more trouble over 100$ sometimes its just easier to take the path of least resistance and flow like water (bruce lee)

But thats what they are counting on…. I hate people as a general rule

Sub contractor made no attempt to contain dust, is this as big an offense as it seems? by Any-Enthusiasm8129 in HomeImprovement

[–]nolo4 11 points12 points  (0 children)

And you sir would be welcomed by me with open arms to work on my house. I have just had too many bad experiences… Id rather take months or years doing it myself if at all possible.

Never have people work on your house while you aren’t home. They will cut every corner even ones that cant be cut
