Redoing the kitchen cabinets 30 to 40. Removing the soffit. Waiting for my electrician to come this week. You get the picture other side of sink has a few more cabinets then the fridge. Also got a new hood for above the range

big fan of the gray cabinets. looks fantastic.

Wife has decided she wants a fence for the backyard. Thanks to our HOA rules, this is gonna empty my wallet hard

We are at lock up! (well, a few lengths of the Scyon weatherboard need to go up, but it's close).

Is that a 1- or 2-car garage?

looks like a two car garage that's set back a bit (weird angle maybe)

kansasbbq, any movement on work you were looking to do? we hired someone last week to our garage conversion and bathroom

Nothing yet. Our AC shot crap last weekend. So those plans will be delayed for a bit.

Figured it was.

The outside looks great. Can't wait to see the inside.

Further inspection of the deck I decided to redo the whole thing in one day yesterday. Two guys one deck a few beers. 36-16’2x6

thanks mate
we have gone fairly basic on the inside. very neutral colours. Our intention is to actually upgrade a few components (cabinetry for example) over the years, as the initial cost now was too high on top of everything else.
The interior will still look nice though, im hoping!

Metal and brick one stories. They sure do fudge differently down unda.

I was really impressed with the fall protection used for a one story roof. They must have a pretty strict OSHA over there.

I'm sure it'll look just fine.

Hate to break up the great hard wood floor chatter. Does anyone use Simply Safe home security? I guess my wife wants one or something like it that won't break the bank.

Yup, we do. Have had no complaints on it. The few times we have accidentally set something off they have been very quick to call. Good assortment of sensors available and easy as hell setup. Only thing that requires power is the base station, everything else is battery which is also nice. I know there are a handful of similar systems out there nowadays but i wouldnt go back on that one. Have liked how easy it is to add sensors too. Added a water sensor around our water heater after our old one leaked, 20 bucks well spent.

alright lads, im ready to buy a Simplisafe system. Thing is, they don't ship to here. Anyone wanna help me out with this? ill cover all your costs of course. Thanks all

[wottagunn]

I have been sorted. Thanks all
