Z71_Denali Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I like the craftsman style posts Ryan. We have these on our back deck. It's the big thing right now... Again... lol You should look into upgrading the garage door top panel with windows. They have some nice square windows with muttons that would look great on your house. thanks! that's the theme the builders went with for the whole house before we found it. we like how its gunna have a porch that wraps around the corner and a lot of the designs they picked out. we got to choose a few of the detailed things, but they had already ordered a lot of stuff like the doors, floors, cabinets, and granite. and we like everything they picked so its all falling into place without much headache. is that something that can be added to existing garage doors? i dunno how i feel about people being able to peek in to see whats in there though. the garage is in an alley so there's not really any curb appeal to it.

My doors are five panels high so you'd need a stool to see in, but I'm not overly worried about people seeing in I guess. The added light is HUGE for me.

LFairbanks Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Ryan. Didn't you say they were doing wood floors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z71_Denali Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Ryan. Didn't you say they were doing wood floors? yeah, in the family room that i posted a 360 of tile in kitchen, laundry room, and bathrooms, carpet in bedrooms they still have to do that, countertops, stain the fireplace mantle, fixtures, landscaping, fence, concrete. we're gunna have them add exterior shutters to that front bedroom window, and i've requested they extend the driveway towards the street to make it about 16' wider so i have extra space to wash! the driveway will be short, but wide. 16' long, 45' wide Edited May 3, 2012 by 2010TexasEdition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFairbanks Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) yeah, in the family room that i posted a 360 of I thought that is what you said. If that is the case, why does it look like they have the baseboards up already? IMHO, I wouldn't do the shutter thing. Why cover up and poke holes in that nice brick?

IMHO, I wouldn't do the shutter thing. Why cover up and poke holes in that nice brick? theres a small space between the concrete and the baseboards. i'm assuming they will put a trim ring around the edges. thats what we did when my dad and i installed wood in their house; we left the baseboards in place, ripped the carpet, laid the wood, trim around the walls and thresholds between the wood, tile and carpet. trust me if it doesn't look right when done, i'll make them redo the baseboards at their expense! as for the shutters... i don't know why my wife wants them! in my head its an extra $300-$400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorsports-X Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I hate owning a house... just got a bill for 7400. to replace the ac/heat pump.. GRRRR.. i KNEW i should of kept the home warranty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 That can hurt... but on the bright side you probably have more than $7400 in equity. I just dropped a boat load getting interior and exterior paint work done. Hurts writing that check when the jobs done, but better than flushing money every month on rent for no gain.

I have NO equity yet... Putting in an irrigation system and fence and had to buy a ton of furniture to fill the house. I'm just happy to be one of the lucky ones and own my own home.

I am not sure of all the fine print in your warranty but if they see there is already a problem that exixted befire you got the warranty they may try to not cover it. I also could have read it wrong but when I read it I took it to mean you are now buying the warranty just to get that replaced. Not sure if that is the case or not.

Chewy Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 We got the boys room painted yesterday... I went for a racey look. We have a round red rug, new red drapes and we're going to buy some new bedding to finish the room off. Perfect boys room IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually not a huge fan of them on the car, but I wanted something different then the normal red stripe around the room like most do. I wanted it boyish and cool! I think we succeeded.
