Doing a bathroom renovation and planning to replace the ceramic tile with marble. Seeing all the rage with uncoupling membranes but unclear on if it’s needed as I’ve pulled up a ton of ceramic over the years and it’s always set directly on the slab. Needed or overkill? The downside I foresee is...

Anyone know why LP smartside trim is hard to find in Louisiana? I’ve searched HD/Lowe’s and local lumber yards. Nada. Move outside the state and it appears to be available. I used the siding on my shed and wanted to use the trim but now I may need an alternative or a trip to Mississippi....

I currently have some on order with theshutterstore.com. They were best price I could find. They sent templates for detailed measurements that you take and return. So far, communication has been great, but haven’t gotten shutters yet. Lead time was 12 weeks when I ordered last month....

I went with Pergo outlast from Home Depot. It was cheaper than LVP and I thought looked a little better. Zero scratches, buckles, or issues in wet areas 1 year in. Downsides are it’s a little slick and a little clicky sounding. I would 100% go with it again for what I paid. Lowe’s has a si...

My advice is to take her in the marsh so she can sling a cork with a shrimp under it if it’s her first trip. Or go to Slidell and fish for a couple hours then hit one of the waterfront restaurants....

I did mine myself. I could get to the rear nuts but not the 2 forward nuts to backup so I got a 1/4” stainless backing plate and had it drilled & tapped to match the pattern of the mounting bracket. Held it under there and got all the bolts started, then just put locktite on them and tightened the...
