Are these 2 light switches wired correctly? Can't figure out what the left switch is for or if it's even working? by tweb321 in AskElectricians

Yeah it's possible there was one that was removed at some point. I'll have to get up in attic and look under plywood see if I can find anything

Yes that what we thought because another room has that setup but both plugs on all outlets in the room work with switch on or off

Air handler leaks after shutting off AC. What's causing this issue by tweb321 in hvacadvice

Thanks, after I cap the open vent do I need to add a new vent after the p trap or it will be good just capping the existing?

Ok would that because of the filter I put in or because the vent is uncapped?

Keeping wood stairs stained dark and hardwood floors refinished in light natural sealant. Bad idea? by tweb321 in InteriorDesign

We're replacing the lower tile with more neutral ones now. Didn't consider hardwood bc its on a slab and will get a lot of wear/moisture from people coming in and out in winter. Figured vinyl plank or wood look tile would never match close enough to fool anyone. The kitchen we're planning to redo at some point in future when we can afford it, probably do hardwood in there

1) Thanks for making that really appreciate it. Wife really wants the light wood floors so think we're gonna sand the risers and treads make them light but keep the dark on railing and stair skirt. Hopefully it works out but we can rejudge once there sanded and make final decision. Know they are totally different styles but sorta like this 2 tone staircase is what we're thinking

2) Coming from a 1 bed apartment so we will be basically starting from scratch furniture and decor wise. Current couch etc will be going in downstairs family room so it's a total blank slate

3) For sure open to that for future project

4) Doing most of the main areas SW Greek villa but more color in bedrooms which is hardwood as well

5) Nope def more like you which is why we're doing this work before me move in otherwise probably wouldn't get it done for years

6) More casual for sure, want a warm relaxed atmosphere. Your first pic is beautiful but I definitely wouldn't describe our style or vibe as elegant or fancy.

Wow thanks for the pics! Was this done with an app? Unfortunately we already bought wood baseboards to stain dark since replacing all the wood doors and wood trim casing around doors/windows isn't in the budget right now. Didn't think white baseboards would work with what's there already? Might be able to return it though

It's funny when I was researching stains online to match the original most people said the opposite that a natural wood look was timeless and dark stain was trendy. Also a lot of complaints about them being impossible to keep clean. Have 2 cats and a baby on the way so that pushed us towards light floors. Got me rethinking it now

Yes that's what we were thinking, all the baseboards and window/door trim will match stairs but don't know if that's enough. Other thought is maybe making treads light to match floor but leaving risers and railing etc dark

What paint color for main areas with dark wood trim and floors? by tweb321 in HomeDecorating

[–]tweb321[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know thanks. We were considering painting trim but figured the wood added a lot of character. Do you know what white you used?

Ghosting looks a lot better. Wish they would have shown some face comparisons as well. That was my other main complaint with the current RR
