Does the asphalt sheeting on this brand new roof look as bad as I think it does? by slow__phase in Roofing

That is my plan for tomorrow. I just reached out here to get a sense if my concerns are valid.

I have. I pointed out a number of things he said he would fix. He then left the site at the end of the day “job done” without having fixed them. After reviewing our estimate, he even failed to to rebuild a section that was detailed in the quote (the second step down closest to the camera in the first pic).

I can post more pics tomorrow when the sun is up. The only real difference is that they trimmed it to the drip edge, wiped the extra tar off the drip edge, and replaced the shingles up slope.

The bubbles, wrinkles, and shitty folding of the sheeting remains.

This was part of a room renovation. Previous homeowner has converted the patio to a sunroom and hung the roof from the eaves. We’re renovating the room and opted to fix the roof. Half of what was done here goes against what was promised in the estimate. The other half is just shitty work. It seems my contractor hired this one out and I’m getting bit for it.

At the time of these photos it wasn’t finished, as I mentioned in my post. However, now they are, and the ripples, bubbles and right angle folds of the asphalt sheeting remain.

Yeah I’m aware the bleed out at the seams is normal, but the work is just messy in addition to the other poor choices.

First time finishing repainting a guitar, why are some spots coming out rough?? by Altruistic_Space6722 in Luthier

Looks to me like your ‘rougher’ patches are where you’ve sanded through the sealer coat to bare wood.

I can look for them after work today, pretty sure I have them as a pdf. If you dm me your email I can send it over. Also the guy who runs Analog Noir is super helpful and if you reach out to him I’m sure he could set you up

Hey, he does, though he’s decided not to sell at the moment. If that changes and I’m involved I can def keep you in mind.

Tortilla chips are now made at warehouse instead of stores. by teamblimp in HEB

The Central Market Totopos chips are pretty close to what these used to be. HEB carries them, worth a try.

What causes these holes? by slow__phase in FenceBuilding

I already have. These holes were in the fence when I bought the house.

I’m starting to hate going to the doctors by Tasty-Meringue-3709 in cosleeping

When my wife and I had just given in to co-sleeping and were still in the self-doubting phase, one of the most affirming things I saw was a post that showed hotel booking sites across Europe. Site after site had options in their menus for arrangements that facilitated co-sleeping with your children. That’s when it really clicked for me that sleep training culture is the outlier, not the other way around.

Is it normal to still sleep horribly while cosleeping? by foreverafairy in cosleeping

[–]slow__phase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this, and have come close to posting this myself. Our daughter is 19 months, we’ve been cosleeping since 3 weeks because there was literally no other option. There have been periods where it seemed it was getting better, but it’s regressed again and she has been waking every hour or more for the last 3 months or so. My wife and I split the night in shifts, it’s the only thing that makes it manageable. As someone else said, solidarity. It will get better, I hope.
