    You only need to take a short amount of tension off the main lifting spring about 3-4”. Leave one of the tension rods in the slot and let it rest against the closed garage door. That way you don’t have to completely in mind and rewind the springs which can be very dangerous!

      There are too many variables to give an accurate answer. Material wise just 10 bags of sand topping mix cement and form boards. Labor cost will vary drastically depending on where you live. A crew of 2 people should be able to complete in 2-3 days.

    • @HowtoHacks
      @HowtoHacks 2 місяці тому

      To find the joists you can look at the nails or screws that are already there. If you can’t see them because another layer is on top, you can find one by measuring off of a floor register or something like that. Then one will be every 16 or 24 inches depending on the framing.

    The color cabinets I want and style didn't offer a farmsink base. I thought I had to choose a different one but here is this video! As long as my cabinet doors don't interfere with the sink, I can still get everything I want! And flipping the cabinet and sink over to mark it, well, genius! Also adding the supports and putting the screws on the outside of the cabinet before installing the cabinet is a great touch. No one will see the screws. Thank you so much for this simple easy to understand video!

  • @LuminairPrime
    @LuminairPrime 3 місяці тому

    The best way for a homeowner to do this in modern times is to use as much Quad Max as necessary, go slow, and not tool it. Tooling the sealant in this scenario with such ragged surfaces doesn't really make it look any cleaner, it just makes it smaller, and it'll fail sooner. Just put a thick bead of Quad Max down and move on.

    Very nice! is there a clearance between the top of sink and countertop? 1/8" maybe?

    • @HowtoHacks
      @HowtoHacks 3 місяці тому

      I just ran a level across and made it even with the top of the cabinets. That way the countertop is completely supported. Most farm sinks have a rounded edge so there is plenty of room so seal between the sink and countertop with caulk.

  • @kuge96879
    @kuge96879 3 місяці тому

    Was the guy following you smoothing it with his finger using a screwdriver to push caulk into the grout gaps? Just wondering what that technique was. Great tips here!

    • @HowtoHacks
      @HowtoHacks 3 місяці тому

      Yeah. The screw driver helps get in the mortar joints when needed. If you spray the caulk with soapy water from a spray bottle then smooth with your finger, your finger will glide right down the joint and make everything smooth.

    I am so baffled to how water is pouring into the basement? my basement is finished and water is seeping in under the basement steps through an inside wall that runs from the cellar to the living room??? I assume there's a crack or hole in the wall behind the dry wall at the steps??. The water that comes in is crystal clear not muddy at all?? This is puzzling to me to how it would be coming in through the wall without any mud?? HELP!!! Anyone have suggestions/? I do not have a sub pump my basement is really tiny.... IDK

    • @HowtoHacks
      @HowtoHacks 3 місяці тому

      Fist thing to do is check your down spouts and make sure water is being directed as far away as possible. Then look at the grading or slope of the property and make sure it slopes away from the house. Excess groundwater around a foundation will always find a way in. A sump pit should help as it will lower the water level by pumping excess away. It would be worth talking to a contractor about the issue.

    Good job in describing your work ,though it seems like you've over-complicated a few things. I've been roofing for 25yrs and am still learning new techniques, but sometimes the old school way still works best. First, you're never going to be able to make a snap lock seam absolutely water tight, no one can, there's too much wiggle room. Go 1" dbl lock standing seam and you'll have no worries there. Second, put a 2" lap on both sides of the valley, that'll eliminate the cleats, and the pans can be folded into the valley itself. Third, when installing 1" standing seam, the pans are 20⅞" wide, they cover more area. Fourth, also when installing 1" standing seam, the angle change (transition) can be made right into the pan by fabricating the bend into the locks themselves with a pair of needle nose pliers, eliminating all that extra metal transition trim. And that's just the field, there are much simpler solutions for caps, hips, and stack (pipe) penetrations as well. I'm not going to go any further 'cause y'all know the difference in styles. These are naught but suggestions. Good luck guys! And thanks for the video!

    Even better instead of screwing right through that apron flashing try folding down the top 3/4”-1” and fastening it using clips hooking the top fold and screwing clip instead of all those holes in that nice new apron flashing. Plus when caulking between valleys always leave wheel paths for sweat. Metal roofs can get super hot and usually when it’s hot out people tend to crank the a/c units and can literally leak. Pretty amazing but true. Keep up the good work

    Wow you seriously like the new legalization law. You really put some thought into the legs lining up and actually nailed those lower panels first?

Do it once and do it right.
