Spray foam over the block wall and the crawlspace understructure is definitely a good option and I think that’s what you meant. To cover the dirt though it has to be a thick plastic or what is called a rat cap, which is basically a thin layer of concrete with the moisture barrier underneath it.

@theconstructionzone7 oh yea, the underside of the floor after running some pex loops for radiant floor heat. I would want some plastic on or just under the dirt with plenty of square inches of ventilation too.

@theconstructionzone721 күн бұрын
+@vnmcvn86 In the San Diego area, our prices have ranged from around $370 to $420 per square foot on the past for a single level build with minor grading. However, depending on the land and how upscale a client wants to go, it could easily climb to $500 plus per square foot in today’s costs. Keep in mind San Diego, particularly coastal SD, has become one of the most expensive places to live in the U.S.

my first real experience with wagos other than fixtures that came with them was when i worked for amazon at a fulfillment center on their conveyor systems. we had these even stronger wagos meant to be capable of the vibration that they would endure on the conveyors. now, they are what my company uses as a first choice for wire connections.
@rusty-ole-boomstick1268Ай бұрын
Having the ladder strapped to a solid surface so the ladder does not kick out also helps, no bungees cords, a ratchet strap or if you know ropes two points of contact on a lower rung, clove hitch with a running bowline and two half hitches around a permanent fixture like a post or beam, heck even a small tree. The point of no return is exiting at the top of the ladder on to the roof and entering the ladders rungs for the descend as you should have at least three rungs at the top over the roof.

It’s more correct when you were calling it grain matching. It’s also referred to as wrapping, but it’s definitely not book matching. Book matching is very specifically a central seam that is mirror copied of itself, hence like an open book. And on a flat surface, not a 90° angle. In this case, just grain matching or wrapping the existing texture. Or wrapping a mirror texture had it been separated and opened.

Every "carpenter" in Texas needs to watch this video. I had a guy put on a roof for me while i was at work away from home. I left 22 sheets of sheetrock stacked in my living room to install myself after I got home and was to be installed after i got my electrical, insulation and studs etc where I wanted them. I came home to find my roof done and all the sheetrock installed, installed over empty wall cavities, installed without the electric I wanted there, installed with no studs on the corners (old doublewide) He came and had his hand out for me to pay him for a job horribly done that I never hired him to do. He kept acting like all these things needed prior to sheetrock were no big deal. I had to rip it all out myself. In Texas your best bet is to just do it yourself. If you hire someone to put in your insulation and your not there watching them, they will absolutely steal all your insulation to sell and wall over empty cavities. In texas over 90% of carpenters or contractors consist of just a guy or 2 with a truck. They are not certified to do anything and wing it till they can get paid and bolt. If you are not there watching them everyday the entire time be ready to have meth vapors in your walls as well. Just do it yourself

Where I live we have code enforcement officers walk through the project to make sure skill trades and framers have done their work to code before the sheet rock goes up. It is all part of the permit process.
@theconstructionzone73 ай бұрын
It’s the same here in California; we have building inspectors. We conduct multiple inspections before the drywall goes up. The largest inspection is the combination inspection for framing, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical work. Prior to that, we have a shear wall inspection for seismic safety, as well as hardware inspections, foundation inspections, rebar inspections, underground plumbing inspections, underground electrical inspections, and more. Even with all these inspections, it’s still beneficial to do a walk-through and check for aspects that the inspector may not be looking for, such as the quantities or placement of electrical and low-voltage systems. This doesn’t mean those things weren’t reviewed prior; it’s just a final homeowner/contractor double-check inspection before covering everything with drywall.

@@theconstructionzone7 in addition to what you said the code is the “ bare minimum “ work to be done. Whether building or wiring I almost always exceed code. All my 120 volt circuits are always 20 amp. I have seen 1 million dollar homes with a top floor all wired in one circuit. We are talking lights and receptacle including the bathroom. How in the world it passed code is beyond me. Terry
@ForestToFarm3 ай бұрын
Being an electrical contractor and having to find countless covered outlets and lights I feel it would be a good idea to mark the floor where each item is so you can zero in on them quickly without having to resort to photos and videos. Pictures and videos are the best and I have used them many times to come back for future additions. Got in the habit of giving the home owner a copy. They were always happy. Terry

I am a finish guy ! And I totally believe it all carpenters if committed to their trade can learn framing and jump to finish ! Where it gets difficult is doors, cabinetry, railings, Newel posts , paneling , skirt boards, trimming out risers, treads, however; other than that shssss nothing ! Oh and I can frame a wall ( and I am a skilled finish carpenter) but past that ? So yeah nice miters and I would seriously be concerned if they could not ! By the way ? Are your workers on permits or ? My friend just got audited by the licensing board and I had to resubmit my license and bond card ? Because they found several fake SSN # and fined him big time ! And when he said he done his due diligence they told him “ no” other wise you would hv known the sub contractor was phony and all these workers ! I am talking like 90 grand !

Good advice ! The other thing i like doing is if your on grass or soil turn feet so they dig in . On smooth surfaces have feet flat so rubber is in contact. Those rubber mitts that go on top of ladder are a nice idea to keep ladder from sliding. Be safe 😊

But no bevel bro. No one noticed that. If you added that then you could glue it. It looks tight but only a 16nth of the miter is touching. It’s going to shrink and then you’re going to have a dark crack up there.
