"I have had over 30 contractors at my home as it has been basically rebuilt. This company has been the most professional i have dealt with. Showed up on time, communicated progress, cleaned up at the end of each day COMPLETELY, came with all necessary tools and supplies. Along the width of the house, all of the walls were removed from the floor to aprox 2 feet. Lower portion of studs and base plates removed, walls sealed with amazing product, studs, base plate and walls replaced (not the sheetrock). All lower level floors sealed. We have had over 5" of rain in the last 24 hours. This is the first time since i have owned this house that the floors have not flooded when we have saturated soil and heavy rain. Incredible product, excellent company. i highly recommend both. "
"Title: Some ups, mostly downs If you want a simple remodel of a small bathroom, Re-bath lives up to its hype and will do the job very quickly and fairly well. If you want something more, caveat emptor. Our saga started in March 2014, when we had a lengthy consultation with the sales guy and signed the initial contracts. Right from the start, the sales guy insisted that the project would take 4-6 DAYS to complete after all of the products were in and the work was started. Tony insisted this even though the project included a small bathroom with new tile floors, shower enclosure, vanity, cabinets, fixtures, and replacing a standard door with a pocket door; and a master bathroom with all of the same plus additional cabinets, two pocket doors, a jetted tub, and a tankless water heater. I had upped that estimate to two weeks in my mind, but we were both way off. We started the wait for project materials to arrive. Part of the delay was our fault for taking time to select the tub and fixtures we wanted. The first snag came in April, when Tony told us that the shower enclosure we chose was being discontinued. This was a big problem because we chose everything else in the bathroom to go with the shower enclosure we originally picked. It took a good month for the samples of the new materials to arrive and of course we needed to see everything together so we could select cabinets and tile to match our new surround color. We are into June by this point, and again waiting for the materials to arrive. Finally, finally we get word from the project manager that the work could start on July 7 and would take 4 ? 6 WEEKS to finish. After much argument, he agreed to try to finish in a month. OK, the small bath was done first and it was complete within 4 days, yay. We discovered many details were overlooked but they were eventually finished. With the master bathroom, it was one thing after another. The vanity went in but the fixtures weren?t centered properly. We received a tower unit for the vanity, but Re-bath never validated the measurements with us and it wound up taking up too much space. When the right unit arrived, it had to be moved TWICE because, again, measuring was not done properly. The new wall with a pocket door was hung crookedly and the pocket door didn?t close properly. The threshold between the master bedroom and the bathroom, and between the bathroom and closet were sloppy and mismatched. When Re-bath considered the project finished, we had a punch list of 24 items?stupid things such as not sealing the top of the enclosure to the wall and not sealing the entry to the jetted tub, among other things. Nearly every item on the punch list was due to lack of care of their part and all could have been avoided through proper supervision and review of the work. The glass for the shower, while OK, was not frameless as specified in the contract. The glass is the only thing that?s bringing this review up to three stars, however, because Re-bath agreed to reduce the contract price for most of the cost of replacing the shower glass by someone who knows how to make frameless glass enclosures. The fiasco with the water heater is quite another matter. The Re-bath sales guy probably should not have agreed to include the water heater as part of the project, but he did include it and said it would be no problem. Their master plumber is the only one allowed to deal with that sort of thing. Finding time in his schedule and coordinating the installation with the inspectors brought one problem after another. Initially, he measured the existing conventional water heater and ordered the parts needed for the gas lines and the exhaust flue. When he came to install it, he realized that he ordered the wrong size flue so had to order another, which took another week. Then he said that they needed a special platform ladder, but there was not one to rent in the entire city. The fact that it took weeks to look for the ladder needed for the installation is unbelievable, but it happened. After the installation, it rained and there was leak and they had to send the roofer out to properly seal that leak. In the end, what soured us on Re-bath is the lack of communication. It appears that this is a common problem for contractors, and one that is so easily solved. If Re-bath had bothered to stay in touch on a regular basis, we would have grumbled but would have accepted delay after delay after delay so much better, and I think all of us would have been much happier. The project was finally completed in October 2014. After the project was finished, one of the owners of the franchise booked time with us to discuss the project so he could use it as a teaching situation, but he forgot about setting up the appointment and did not show. When we called, he asked ?what did we do wrong now?? not even realizing his error. We were fed up and did not wish to waste any more time with them on this. Re-bath is not cheap. In the end, we like our bathrooms and think the materials are attractive and (we hope) durable. But it was a painful process and we cannot recommend Re-bath for anything except simple bathroom remodels. They claim two things that set them apart ? speed and a no-additional-cost-for-any-surprises-behind-the-walls guarantee. They did live up to the latter promise, but fell far short on the speed promise.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.
There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.
