You're pulling off charming or some other endearing quality and I don't get how you can do that dressed as you are.

I WONT say cute.

Great work zip! I'll just pencil you in for my eventual barn project.

I'm confused... I thought the foam was supposed to fill the whole cavity between the studs, from the outside wall to the cement board? :confused:

First Bruce , as we dont Live in the Great White North so we dont have to insulate our walls to R97 or sum such ,

this spray foam adds 7 R per inch , I sprayer it on thick so its Prolly generly R10- 12 ish

Ok Now to the NSFW Part ,
This Pussy Ass Fucking Tile Guy that WAS Going to do our Job , Showed up Wednesday , Said , Oh This and This Needs doing Befor I can Tile , How about the Pour for the Shower floor , Oh That Needs doing Befor I can do that to , Ok I worked my Ass off All day wensday .

Contractors suck. They always bitch about each other, too.

squirell nutkin 03-12-2010 12:09 AM

What a douchebag.

Zippy, you could probably tile. If you can spread peanut butter on bread, it ain't much different spreading mud with a notched trowel. Then stick the jammies on there. Black and Decker makes a good how to book on tiles. Fine Homebuilding's is ok too, but a bit more advanced.

Dealing with prima donna tile guys sucks.

Ps I'm digging Bro. Dave. Thanks.

I'm sending you a Patton Oswalt.

zippyt 03-12-2010 12:16 AM

We are going to Look Tomorrow for a dude to Build the shower and tile the bathroom floor , That I WILL NOT TRY !!
Now as to tileing the Laundry room , well since Most of its covered by Washing Mech and dryer and deep freeze and food shelf , I feel I can figuer out how to do it by the time it get visible , so yeah HAW !!!! here we go !!!!
Unless dude will give us a good quote for doing ALL the tile .
I Dont Mind Paying for Quality

Griff 03-12-2010 06:29 AM

You are totally capable of doing your own tile if you can't find someone. I did my shower and let's face it if I can do it it doesn't take big skills. That said, tile is not fun like wood-working or sex so...

squirell nutkin 03-12-2010 11:21 AM

How is a tile floor like a man?

Lay it right the first time and you can walk all over it for the rest of your life.

Pie 03-12-2010 11:25 AM

Yeah, but have you ever tried re-grouting a man???

squirell nutkin 03-12-2010 12:56 PM

No, but I've met plenty of grody men.
