    I just successfully got our house designated on the Historic Register!

    Yeah, I'm also interested to know your rights with respect to remodeling. To be sure, some renovations are absolutely necessary (if not required) to maintain reasonable living or sanitary conditions, but are you required to keep the same style on the interior? How much freedom do you have...

    Bike Tune Up Recommendations

    My favorite downhills in the area (besides the luge, which is in its own category), are Lynx, Old Emerald (the luge-like single-track in the outer loop at el moro that drops you to the canyon floor), Meadows, then Rock-It. I like and appreciate rock-it, but I just dont like the "paint in a...

    Regular vs "Zero" Grout Lines

    Regular vs "Zero" Grout Lines

    What about engineered wood? Is it REALLY different once you get it all laid down?

    Regular vs "Zero" Grout Lines

    I prefer the unpolished marble, it can look absolutely stunning if properly cared for. You will also find that the majority of your costs from natural stone vs synthetic tile come from the installation costs. Its a lot more work to lay natural stone, and you will see the big difference in an...
