    Thought of the day .

    Very few people are willing to pay for quality when you can go to walley world and get one for $20.

    Sheet Vinyl In Basement - Underlayment?

    Skim coat the rough areas with ardex feather finish. Knock down the high spots with a chisel or scraper first

    Undercutting door jamb

    For a diyer you should shave & glue. Personally I haven’t shaved a plank in over 10 years. With the proper tools and a little know how you can get them locked in no problem. A good 60% of my work load is floating floors these days.

    Who would fire this installer?

    Could be what the customer/architect wanted? If that’s the case, I would do it and take their money! No shame in my game.

    What did you do today?

    The homeowner likes it enough but literally looked me in the eye and said “this is probably the most expensive template in history”. Then said she doesn’t love the small binding & will probably have me do it again next year with a wide binding. 😂. Her interior designer & herself wanted it...

    What did you do today?

    I did but being a spiral staircase I could only get a couple steps at a time. Pictures were boring so I deleted them. Lol I also like the wide binding on sisal. But it’s not what we like, it’s what the customer wants. 😂. These folks have no problem paying for what they want, so I give...

    What did you do today?

    Thanks mike. I wrap the step with rosin paper & draw on whatever size border the customer wants. Same with the landings. Then I have the customer look it over and sign off on it. I number them and take them to our warehouse to cut them out & trace onto the carpet. Then I either bind them...

    What did you do today?

    😂 I have been getting the business from folks for about a month now. Truth is, their finally comfortable. I’ll get a new pair when snow is on the horizon. Also they feel great when I’m on the Harley!!! Like air conditioned feet.

    More to come. There’s still 3 other flights & a few big landings….. Shoot me please! This is the only carpet I do anymore. Custom **** the other crews can’t be trusted with. 😂

    What did you do today?

    Been doing a custom sisle carpet runner for some VERY wealthy folks. What a pain in the ass this has been. But it looks pretty good I think.

    What did you do today?

    Seems fine to me. He was very polite and cordial with everyone at the fight. Took the time to sign everything and anything for folks & take pictures with people too. Really humble when we met him & even gave my boy some tips for his next fight in September!! It was a pleasure talking with him...

    Jokes

    That’s back when parents could parent. These days the spoon is replaced with a firm talking to that nobody respects

    Movie Discussions

    Say it ain’t so Chris…… lifetime movies? 😂. Just kidding man. Not a movie but a show on HBO max. Righteous Gemstones. Freaking hilarious! Also Eastbound and down & vice principal’s. Danny McBride is a hilarious guy. Love his shows. Might be a bit raunchy for some of you senior citizens...

    What did you do today?

    Yeah, both my son and I are big fight fans. I’m too old to fight anymore but my son is loving it! We live in a tiny town. He’s known as “little lightning” & is thoroughly enjoying the attention and respect at school (especially from the girls). Lol We met Roberto Duran a month or so ago...

    What’s Cookin

    Guess I’m not as American as I thought. 😂 Honestly, I was just happy to have a home cooked meal. Between work, my kids sports & other responsibilities I very rarely get a home cooked meal these days. Pop Warner football season just started & that’s at least 4 days a week. Then he has...

    What did you do today?

    Any fight fans in here? Anyone see the Paul Diaz fight last night? I hate Jake Paul but I gotta give it to him for putting the spotlight on boxing again. I am interested in seeing Paul in the octagon with Nate. Nate will be in his own world and do his thing. A couple weeks ago...
