Shingles don't even extend to the edge of the drip edge.Doesn't seem to go up further than I filled those shingles back. Which by the way was shockingly easy to do. I guess even tar paper was too much to ask for.

And the gutter guard's installed so that hangs past the gutter and thus drips to the ground instead of into the gutter. Friggin crackheads.Shingles don't even extend tomthe edge of the drip edge.

Ought not to be fun grouting those little buggersI’ve been remodeling our kitchen lately, repainted cabinets, walls, new counter tops and doing a new backsplash. Got to the top rip on the backsplash and had to ease out the cabinet sides to allow the tile enough clearance to not have to notch it.

Was gonna use a vibrating saw and thought it could be a mess so I made one of those dust catchers like Dialbro would do.

Turns out I could have just cleaned up the mess faster than it took me to prep the catch.

Anyways it felt good being tidy and keeping the job site clean and neat.

Wrapped it up and shipped it postage due to Andial’s house this morning.
I did the corners and joints with this stuff... and still have a few yards left over. It's like a very fine cloth.If you mud the bottom of durock, use a fiberglass mesh tape for reinforcement.
After 16 years living in the house I've been building out the unfinished basement over the last 3 months. Almost done!

Here's a question for you more experienced guys... I'm doing 6" white tiles, never did a tub before and not sure about the space above the tub and the Durrock. Stuff it full of mortar and place the tile 1/8" above the tub (caulk the space) is what I'm thinking.

Picked up this beauty at Lowes the other night. Was wandering through the vanity area and this was all boxed up at a reduced price! We were looking for a 48" and stumbled onto this!
$75 out the door!

We found it easier to stud the windows, then cut them out and frame the opening.typically, most of us don't cover windows with stud walls,
but I did do it on a project back in the day. Window was in the way of a kitchen layout, so I put black film over the inside, insulated it good, then drywalled right over it. From the outside it still looked like a operating window.
Yep, it's a problem alright. Ya just gotta be innovative.October 6 – Wall Street Journal (Lydia O’Neal): “Shortages of key construction materials are forcing some builders and contractors to turn to substitutes and hunt for alternative suppliers as they rush to meet high demand for new housing. Construction companies are looking for replacements and new sources for everything from wood paneling to ceiling joists to pipes, saying that potentially higher costs and added complications to design and construction can be preferable to putting a project on hold for months while waiting for planned supplies.

Thank you a lot for chiming in and giving me your ideas. It's been a bit overwhelming as the can of worms continues through spring and sproing.what is the roof insulation?
how about venting?
seems like there is ice damning going on also?
or do you guys even have that down there?
something is causing that water damage that far up the roof IMO,
wrote that and didn't post it, then saw your most recent

sure enough roof over roof with air gap between
heat and moisture buildup in that space can cause all manner of cool things,
JMO, I would get that addressed while you are out there,
