Very interesting. Looks like the stuff we call frp panels aroudn here they are about 11 bucks though. $22 a sheet for the type that have a texture.

I noticed you hung drywall on the walls before the ceiling. Around here we hang the ceiling first, that way the edges against the walls are suppurted by the wall drywall.

Definitely get it weather proof first. I had a situation similar to your except I had 3 months before I moved in. Now I'm in my 90% finished home in a major rainstorm watching two in my newly installed windows leak on my new drywall

I think all bosch dishwashers have what they call 24/7 leak protection. They are pricey however starting around $600. Luckily I found mine on craigslist for $250 as they were upgrading to stainless appliances. Yesterday I fixed out washer too. There is a filter before the pump in ours, that is about...

Last October being tired of having our rent raised it seemed like every other month, my wife and I started looking to buy a house. I found on craigslist a 1968 skyline mobile home located in a park pretty close to where we wanted to live. It was the low low price of $1600, the description said livea...

good news is I traced it down to a bad relay. Replaced it and all is well.
