GREASER

great pics.

I know its against the law. Thats why I didnt say how I knew the water was high when it was raining.

thats unfortunate. maybe a victim of watching too many removation shows on HGTV. This stuff isnt for the faint of heart or wallet. It cost money, and if you dont have a lawn mower and need help cleaning the yard, you may want to rethink things.

paste wax is solvent based and should get it off.

no to all...all the lines have been replaced recently. I was there and nothing unusual was present.

I doubt he has time for that. The rental company charges for drop off and pickup. In this case prob 110$ ea. way. It cheaper usually to just keep it. Maybe permit fell thru and took it off rent.

I realize I wasnt clear...the cleanout on the SEWAGE is always high, like someone is draining rain water into the sewage system, causeing a abundance of water in the system, causing it to rise.

Has anyone seen people divert storm water to the sewage lines. I know you arent supposed to, but every time it rains hard, I look into the cleanout and there is more water than when it doesnt rain. I guess its from people draining water into the lines?

ok. Someone please let me know how to apply for historic designation.

there were 3 topics on this house...wasnt this the guy that needed help to clean his back yard cause he didnt have a lawnmower?

If you paid a GC to do the work it would easily be 80-100k. Its hard to get a loan for more than the house is worth..we had to cut a ck directly to the vendor at closing...never actually touched the money

thats exactly what the roofer said. Turbines are better. Best choice are the solar powered fans (according to the roofer)

Ridge vents are really being questioned now...my elec. bill went down considerably when I replaced the upstairs window with double pane.

when these were built, my parents said there were copper lines running on the side of the building..guessing for water, said it looked really nice. For those that havent been inside, I still remember the polished aluminum staircase railing. Very art deco and expensive looking. The peeling pink plastered walls was always intruiging as you could see the many yrs of different paint colors.

My friend moved in approx 20yrs ago and was there till the end. The vacant apts. have been used for repairs to other apartments by removing sinks etc. Not much left. The place was busted when he moved in..I still remember looking at the bottom apt seeing water dripping from the ceiling on the blinds...it was everywhere. Of course no one lived there. Not sure why the owner never allowed the tennants to make outside repairs...they could do whatever to the inside, but not the outside. He always said the owners sister owned the prop across the street (Fiesta), and felt he was trying to hurt the value of her property. He said they hated each other, and were always trying to piss the other off.

use felt paper...your house made it this far with it.

as horrible as it sounds, you can take thouse white alum windows from home store, make a frame by double stacking 2x4s and stagering them with the window behind it. When its done, it looks exactly like a trad. wood window from 10ft. Its the depth and the effect of the frame. I cant explain in text. If curious pm with email and will send a pic. After the first one (4hrs) I was poping them out in 2hrs. your able to use the extra where the weights were and get an extra inch of window

close to the same

cut the root.

the HAR link isnt working for me

thats the one I was talking about, but not the correct address...its on the other end of sims..but same...bigger porch and very nice.

If its the one right in the bend coming off Santa Fe, its looks great. The new owners extended the porch a while back, replaced a bunch of bad wood, and enlarged the columns. Its much more "colonial" now that before. They are working on that thing constantly

I would ask if they knew WTF they were doing...then have them fix whatever they started and leave. I wouldnt pay any more. There are alot of people doing repairs now that have just started in the buis, after they were laid off.

forgot that I am more than willing to pay to cut the tree down. I am scared it will fall during the next hurricane. Its health, but its a very tall pine
