Comments
I wouldn’t be afraid to put a 15 minute time limit on showers in your household, Vinny. That running water ain’t free; not for you, and not for the environment.

2025-09-03 14:28:19 +0000 UTCI read that you should be caulking with silicon anywhere where two different planes meet, like wall to bathtub, floor to bathtub, backsplash to counter. Those areas need to be flexible, as grout with just crack. I learned this the hard way when water from my upstairs shower started to run into my living room ceiling because the grout was so damaged. Now I have to basically redo every 90 degree in the house because the house flipper sucked. Oh fill your tub before you caulk, so the caulk is set for the weight of the water. Better to have it squish when empty than stretch when full.

2025-08-29 11:40:28 +0000 UTCHaving worked in a FBO in a major metropolitan area in the US, I can say from experience that a lot of the uber-wealthy and celebrities are the cheapest, yet most demanding people you’ll have to deal with. The most insulting one was a popular mega-church pastor from Texas that demanded a ~$25000 bottle service for him and his buddies and expected the FBO to cover the tab in exchange for his continued patronage. For reasons I never understood, the company went along with it. Edit: Checked with someone still working there if I was remembering correctly and they said I forgot a 0.
