Its a matter of providing detailed specifications prior to commencing the job. Then have the project bid based on those specifications. More labor is involved in running the plumbing and ductwork in the manner you described. It is an upgraded installation that carries a higher cost. So, its not a matter of "letting them do that to y... |

I doubt a corner was being cut when the gravel showed on the jobsite. The slab should have 4" of gravel under it. The slab should be 4" thick. The gravel was probably unlevel or too thin and the contractor was going to build it up. If 4" of concrete is adequate and gravel is cheaper than concrete, and gravel is ... |

If left exposed it will yellow and become brittle. You should coat it with paint to protect it from UV light. A good, high quality, 100% acrylic latex primer and a coat of 100% acrylic latex paint will last many more years on PVC trim than on wood. It will chalk and fade long before it cra... |

The boards were fine to work with, and quick install. But, the stainless steel nails against the white trim are an eyesore.

I olny have one shut off valve before the HWH which I requested. It's NOT a check valve just a shut off. I'm still not sure if these's a BFP 800' away in the meter pit. So if I don't have a BFP then would that mean my problem is not related to pressure ? . ... |

I've pulled off siding that has been on for 40 yrs, and the felt behind it looked as good as new. Time will tell if the housewrap is as durable. S. "Colbyt" |
