This is the best price so far for a drill holster. I heard Dewalt is a good brand is it or is it not? I am trying to find a gift for my father who works a lot in the garage.

Jimmy asked:


What book would you recommend for a layman, not a professional? Something that covers common repairs, maintenance, improvements - as a step by step guide. I’ve gone to the bookstore and seen many of these, but I’m looking for real experiences from people who have read and used these as to which is the best one.

never have knowledgeable people working for them??? I don’t even ask for help anymore and when I do, I usually prove them wrong. So many times I’ve asked where a certain item is located in their store and they tell me they don’t stock it. I usually find it anyways!!

We’re renting a house, and I want to fixup the bathroom and the kitchen, but all the home improvement and makeover sites I’ve been to only have stuff that I know I can’t and don’t want to do, so if anyone knows of any sites, or if anyone has any ideas of their own, I would appreciate it! I’m looking for things I can do myself.

handydaddy asked:


Which software do you like to use when doing major home renovations?
I would like it to do virtual tours, easy to use, print a material list and printing a time line showing rough work, electrical and plumbing would be cool.

Out of all the home improvement shows from yesteryear to today. Who do you respect the most? And please don’t say bob he is a host a salesman at best.
For me it’s Tom Silva because he knows his stuff and can actually do it.
lol doc I forgot the sitcom genre. I enjoyed Tim the tool man as well

Norm is an icon
Mike Holmes personally I have not seen his work but a mentor of mine watches his show. I will make an effort to view his next episode.

I have a few home improvement questions regarding flooring & taping & texturing walls

crazymama asked:


We are moving into a new place this year and are working on one floor at a time. The top floor is almost finished, the walk out basement needs a lot of work. My husband is only home for 2 wks out of the month so he can’t do it all himself. Here comes the questions!

How hard is it to install laminate flooring? I’d like to do it at the very least in the master bedroom and maybe in the kids rooms too. I’ve been told its super easy. If I remember right it interlocks and I need a foam underlayment. What else is needed? How hard is this for a newbie to do? It’s a totally square or rectangular room with nothing to cut around.

We need to put the walls up inside of the basement still and my husband wanted to do paneling because it’s faster. I hate paneling! I want to sheetrock the whole thing. He doesn’t want to take the time to tape and texture the whole thing (it’s just not his favorite thing to do). So again, as a newbie, how hard can this be?? Just the tape and texture part of things. Time isn’t an issue for me.

All good advice is greatly appreciated!!

Please and thank you!

My wife and I are debating between new windows, a finished basement and an updated kitchen. Which of these will most enhance the value of our home for resell. Any cost estimates would be greatly appreciated as well.

the way. I have found a home that I love the idea of it. It is 100 yr old and has 3,575 sq ft and is selling very cheap. It does need repairs obviously but has already had the plumbing and electrical upgrades (done this year).
