Re: range hood replacement

The wall seems simpler by far. They could have put the range where the fridge is (outside wall) for sure. (Like the dryer, but that's another story.) So the range exhaust goes through the center which between the peak and side wall. Rather far. So I just wasn't sure if the venting needs replacing or...

range hood replacement

Our range currently has a microwave range hood. While it is vented through the roof, we still get strong smells down the hall from cooking. It looks as though they used the springy-type ducting, at least from hood, through cabinet through ceiling. I'm debating on removing the microwave entirely as i...

Re: Putting a door in

Not sure I'm going to mess with it either. Our studs are 2x4. But now I worry about extra load on the floor due to the displacement.
I'll chuck it.

Putting a door in

When we walk in our front door, there is a coat closet straight ahead. If we knocked out the back wall in the back closet it would go straight into the kitchen. It would be so handy to bring in groceries. Currently we have to walk through the FR or LR to get to the kitchen. On each side of this clos...

Thanks everyone. I think we'll check if it's still floating and have them jack it so it doesn't flex. Then we'll get some of that good flexible stuff Mark mentioned. The hardi-board shouldn't be a problem. It came straight from the factory. As for drywall, Oldfart, it really hasn't been a problem wi...

RE: Constant hairline cracks

We have a 2002 32 x 78 foot home w/hardi-board siding and all tape and texture walls 2 x 6 w/2 x 8 floors. We have "jack stands" on bricks w/a dirt foundation, and we live in Arizona. I highly doubt it's wind. It's not that windy very often. So it's very dry and it's very dry underneath th...

Constant hairline cracks

UGH...now I know this means that the home is moving! We had a relevel done the following year and a half after our move in. We knew it wasn't level when they set the home originally, because everything was off. So the initial home set up company came back within 6 months and releveled it....so they ...
