Basement Waterproofing Membrane
I'm looking to protect my newly done basement in San Jose with floor sealant before moving into the home office I've completed. It's a level concrete floor and there's no sign of moisture. The membranes are mostly made for commercial use, right? I'd like to find an affordable one to try at home.
Removing Concrete Stains for a San Diego Home Addition
I want to remodel the garage into an extra bedroom. I think we'll cover the concrete with laminate, but until we get the money for that, I want to get out the oil stains. There all kinds of detergents including TSP, but I was told there's a motorized deep cleaner that you can rent for the job. Do you know about them?
EPA Lead Law Regarding Retrofit Windows
I want to replace my windows in my pre-1978 home with retrofit vinyl windows. Does the new EPA lead rules apply to retrofit projects or just new construction window replacement?
Cost for Toe Kicks for Kitchen Cabinets
I've done my own kitchen cabinets and the kit did not come with toe kicks. So I'm making those, too. I think I should stain them with matching paint before installing them. I'm more concerned about cutting them short enough to fit and whether I'll damage the paint when installing them. You have ideas?
Creating a Remodeling Design or Plan
Our house isn't a total basket case, but if we did a project a year for five years I bet we wouldn't get it done. Can you recommend a way to create a master plan for remodeling the house? I want to schedule upgrades and budget for them, so I need a plan that has a timeline. Is there remodeling software, or do I need to hire a designer or architect on a short-term basis?
Putting in a Dormer
This spring and summer I'm finally converting the attic and putting in new kitchen cabinets. The big project is the dormer. From what I've gathered online, the framing and rafters are covered the same way you'd do your roof, with plywood, felt, shingles, and flashing. How do you dry-in the room, insulate it, and still maintain adequate ventilation?
Keeping Down Costs of New Kitchen Lighting and Dimmers
We're well into planning our kitchen remodel. I was looking over new lighting and fixtures and read something about digital dimmers. I'm used to dimming ballast, but have no experience with digital. Is there a greater control capacity with digital ballast and is it worth the higher cost?
Sealant for Decomposed Granite Path
Decomposed granite is washing away and the tiny pieces get caught under shoes and scratch up our wooden floor. Is there a sealant that can be used to seal? Other options?
Should I consider pitching my old leaky roof?
I have a 3 ply mop down flat roof (3 layers of glass felt, mopped down with asphalt and pea gravel layed on top). The roof has a leak that is getting worst quickly. The roof is at least 20 years old. Should I replace the entire roof, or attempt to repair it, or maybe even consider pitching the roof? I understand that pitching the roof will involve much construction but if I pay for a replacement roof that has to be replaced in 12-15 years, I'm thinking that pitching the roof should at least be considered. The flat roof is about 360 sq feet.
Cost of Putting in Central Air
For years we've tolerated the heat here in Napa with a swamp cooler and now I want to put in central air. The home is a 1950s ranch style house. I'm a rookie in home additions or improvements. Can you tell me the cost of installing central air and whether it affects the structural integrity of the roof or other parts of the house?
