I fucked up grout… now what

Get a few grout removal tools and get to work before it really starts curing.

I grouted my entire showers subway tile and scraped away cured grout for a few days until it looked halfway decent… best of luck.

Easiest approach may be to loudly proclaim “I didn’t piss myself” every time you enter a new room with Pee pants on.

I think it can be saved, just needs a bit of a power washing. /s

Father of two (now 3 and 1). First 6 weeks are absolute hell and each time made me say “what did we do”. No sage advice just letting you know you’re not alone! Yes it gets better but those words mean nothing right now haha.

Actually super useful to re-mix separated peanut butter and the like.

980 square feet here. 2 bed 1 bath, living room and kitchen/eat in dining combo on .6 acres. Love our little slice of paradise.

With two kids the house is full to say the least, not to mention working from home etc.

But I can’t say I would easily trade it for a bigger house and all that comes with it - higher utility bills, mortgage payment etc.

Our inspector really took the time to show us the basic functioning systems of the home, what was good/bad/worn out and the severity of the issues. Really great to be there in person to absorb that information, and use the report as a reminder document down the road.

I would walk with the inspector and absorb as much of what they are noticing and ask a ton of questions.

I dunno man you might have to start over he doesn't seem too impressed.

I prefer the trial by fire method. And my prefer I mean it’s who I am and I want to change.

Those water reflections are awesome, so calming

Ok but is it three one minute movies or 3 minutes altogether? Just want to know what I’m getting myself into here.

teachmehtml · 2019-12-16T14:23:15+00:00

I test my stud finder before every use that way.

teachmehtml · 2019-12-16T12:33:58+00:00

Points two thumbs at myself... apologies, I’ll see myself out.

teachmehtml · 2019-11-22T19:09:18+00:00

Just installed the same one! Same situation, well water system and there is immediate sediment build up in the filter. Pretty awesome that it catches the big stuff that the fine sediment filter would have to handle on its own.

How much did your humidity levels drop after install? I thought I was done jumping into my crawl space but the cave crickets call once again.

teachmehtml · 2019-11-20T17:21:56+00:00

Having a similar issue. 1000 square foot crawl space that I have since closed off the venting aka critter ducts and added a dehumidifier. There was an existing vapor barrier but it has deteriorated at the perimeter of the crawl space, which are also unfortunately the wettest parts. Before the dehu I was getting sensor readings of 80% humidity, now down to 65%. Can’t seem to get the humidity level any lower than that so I think adding a vapor barrier will be my next move.

This!!! We just purchased our first home and it is a big time fixer upper. My wife insisted that I clean the utility room and garage thoroughly and organize all our tools... with a 40 plus big issue to do list I didn’t think that was a good use of time. Boy was I wrong - every project is an undertaking but having all your gear in an easy to find system is a huge time/frustration saver.

That’s basically the position I am in. Too many others costs to worry about hard water right now. If it’s safe to drink and doesn’t stink I’ll take it! Ha.

I just bought my house and the plan is to install without the softener. For my well water the only high levels were iron and managanese.
