RE: Another roof question

Spongebob, I would be very concerned about the support factor of 2x2 or 2x3. you left out one key word when you said that none had buckled or collapsed (YET). I would listen to your common sense. If you really want a new style roof I would design at least a 4x4 support in the walls to hold it up wit...

I would also let the grant people know of the problem, it may or may not help you, but it will expose the contractor. Greg

RE: Leaning water heater

NancyKay, Please think of re leveling as a temporary repair. It sounds like you need to replace the sub floor. It May sound like a major job but it is not that difficult, but it does take some time to do right. As mac said it could be a wind issue, check the cap on the top of the chimney it is possi...

RE: tub surround caulking left go

Glen, If your doors & windows open & close normally without binding than I doubt the home has shifted. The first thing that comes to my mind is poor adhesion, or as you said the bead could be too small. Is there any movement of the tub when you are in it? Greg

RE: Garden Tub question

Your home should have at least 2x6 joists, the same as many stick built homes. I dont think I would worry too much. You may want to check "down stairs" to make sure you have the home properly supported to make your self feel better. Greg
