I need to replace a lot of the tile in my house. I was wondering if anyone had ideas on price for laying tile? new tile is 40x40. Any ideas would help - labor only, labor and mortar, or whatever. Also, if you have a good tile guy you can recommend, I'd appreciate it.

Fast forward and I'm not feeling certain things. The views of having an open second floor is great and allows for quite a number of folks to come over for a BBQ or event. The problem is when the rain comes in sideways the dirty kitchen "area" can get quite wet. I was never a fan of having such a...

Beach front property, shoreline with seawall - law problem?]]> 17 Wed, 06 May 2020 12:50:20 +0000 https://dumagueteinfo.com/board/threads/dog-cages.39401/ https://dumagueteinfo.com/board/threads/dog-cages.39401/ invalid@example.com (ShawnM) ShawnM
Her design all the way; I think they came out looking pretty good (just need a final coat of paint) and are pretty large with floor space about 5 1/2' X 5 1/2' for each of the three cages.

I'm not a huge fan of caging dogs but short of getting them fixed (not in the plan) this seems to be a decent option.
