Re: Wall switch for ceiling lamp fixture
Okay, thank you countrydan and bobfather99. Rafa is such a sweet fellow but his English is not all-encompassing. I may bring him over with his wife so we can have a laugh on him, and he will turn it for me.
Sorry, bob, I don't have a bartender. Where do I get one? LOL

Wall switch for ceiling lamp fixture
The last few days, I have noticed that when I flip the switch for the light in the pantry, it flickers before it lights up. Last night, I tried tapping on the switch cover and that made it flicker. I went across the street today and asked my buddy Rafa to look at it. It needed a new switch and he in...

Re: Need Advice
Always go look for yourself and take someone who knows about roofs and skirting and underbellies and soft floors and plumbing. If you have had roof leaks, you may well have to replace portions of the floor. If the original windows are aluminum, you will have to replace them. Vinyl windows are very e...

Re: Will removing carpet affect insulation?
Very nice job they did, Greg. When I moved in here about 6-1/2 years ago, one went through both front and back doors directly from outside onto the carpet. Carpet was in sad shape in those areas. I cut back the carpet, laid down a coat of B-I-N, and placed cheap sticky vinyl tiles. They have held up...

Thanks, Greg S. When I peeked under the carpet, the pad seemed to be in sad shape.

Re: Will removing carpet affect insulation?
Thank you so much, JD. This had me quite worried. My birthday is coming up and I have a friend who usually sends me money for my birthday and she knows I am very broke right now after cataract surgeries. If she sends enough, I will do vinyl tiles. If not, seal and paint in a creative pattern. Woohoo!

Will removing carpet affect insulation?
Hi Mark and everyone. I haven't needed help in a long time. This is a 1993 Fleetwood 14x66. It has the original carpet (but new vinyl in kitchen and bath). The old carpet isn't stained or ripped, but it has become fuzzy and (with 3 cats) fur adheres to the carpet and doesn't vacuum up well. There is...

Re: Grounding a generator
Hi Greg,
It is an 8-foot grounding rod and we still have over 2 feet above ground and can't get it to go any further. Do you think this will be okay?

Re: BATHROOM REDO BEFORE Part 1
Thank you. I hated having to put them in separate posts, but it told me I couldn't have more than 3 pix in a post.

Re: BATHROOM REDO AFTER Part 3
It took me 2 or 3 months. I'm slow but steady. Unfortunately, I am weaker than I was when I did this.
