What lies beneath
Crawl spaces are both good and bad — how to circumvent some of the drawbacks

Really like this custom shower niche. Good idea to create some extra storage space, and I would recommend building this in your next shower remodel. 👍
Make sure it’s installed properly. If it’s not waterproofed properly, you are asking for water penetrating and running into the stud cavity. I don’t have to tell you that this can cause mold and rot.

When I redid my deck, I had the paverdeck plank system installed so my stone deck would last a long time.
The steel planks are screwed on to your existing wood joists with stainless steel screws. It can increase the lifespan of your wood deck to 20 years.
The stone goes over this.
👉The plank system fully covers the wood joist structure, protecting it from the weather.
👉Easy to install with no special tools required. Each piece is 48" long
👉completely covers and protects your treated wood structure, this system will greatly extend the life of your deck.
Look into it if you are interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIxbcohlHO0

This was what I saw when I started taking my 12 year old composite deck apart. Anyone who is building a deck this year- you MUST add a layer of moisture protection on the tops of deck joists and beams, to prolong the life of the entire structure. https://t.co/8iUqsZwOqz

There is a lot that can go wrong if you attempt to do renovations in your house yourself, and specially in your basement yourself. Same goes for not hiring the right contractor for the job. https://t.co/wCHcqc6iGO

Not too long ago, a family reached out to my team for help. Their story is an insurance nightmare. A dishwasher leak caused a chain of unfortunate events, and they couldn't use their kitchen anymore.

A house is the biggest investment most people ever make in their lives—and it doesn’t come with a money-back guarantee. I’ve met many homeowners who either decided to not get a home inspection or didn’t hire the right home inspector.
