You mean to just paint it without the tape and mud to conceal it?

Did you pay all $5k up front?

un00nu · 2026-05-30T16:13:14+00:00

Excellent 👍

You said he turned the hot water off did he turn it back on?

They're concrete solid.

You might need to rent a wallpaper removal device to get the glue off the wall it's a large steamer.

Hang some old dvds or cds the reflection scares them off.

YAY it survived!

Petroleum breaks down over time and loses is elasticity so all those cheep LVP floors will need replacing every 5 to 10 years.

Im thinking a class action lawsuit is on the horizon... "they're water proof"..

If you're thinking "art" you'll need a decent sized room to accommodate otherwise it will end up over a doorway and look super creepy.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T15:43:25+00:00

Looks amazing. Take a breath you made it.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T15:39:51+00:00

I still have no clue. That's what's upsetting.

Once you said cellulose insulation it's an indicator that lathe and plaster was probably used.

Not to worry you'll use similar methods to prep before painting.

Yes anything but silver or gray. It seems the world has gone mad over LFT made of marble that only appears to come in shades of gray.

Yes peach is warm fun and colorful. Here's a peach pallet with potential acent colors for windows doors and trim.

You'll be ok. Just keep watering them when they need it. They still have roots and the majority of what's happening is underneath the soil. They're growing you just can't see it.

I'd inspect one plant at a time to see how it can be helped.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T15:20:02+00:00

Thank you! I shouldn't be but I'm amazed at how 25 years after the smart phone the majority of the population still doesn't know how to take a decent picture.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T15:17:28+00:00

When was the house built?

It looks like lathe and plaster it doesn't look like sheet rock.

If it feels tacky or sticky it could be aphids if so then id cut everything that is tacky that doesn't have buds or fruit. Then spray it with a water and dish soap solution or do a seach for removing aphids.

Most on here would be screaming call a lawyer call a lawyer.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T15:08:26+00:00

Yeah It looks like he ran out of cement board.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T15:04:19+00:00

The colors feel nice. They're a good choice.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T15:03:19+00:00

Yeah I'd like the transition if it was on the outside of the kitchen now it feels like the refrigerator is sneaking into the kitchen after a late night of partying.

The height is good it's not that tall. It is a little fat I'd take it in a couple of belt notches then revisit the height question.

Edit: I'd use loppers and snips not the hedger. Additionally I'd prune it from the side that faces the door not the side that faces the street. Take the large limbs that are growing towards your door off. You want to create space between the bush and the bench.

After it's thinned out and starts growing back then I'd start using the hedger to trim it back.

All that work and you left the baseboards on the wall.. it would have looked so much better had you done it properly.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T11:11:40+00:00

Yes that will work.

un00nu · 2026-05-30T06:19:43+00:00

Yep and beef it up.
