  1. Drain under sidewalk

    Sounds like a plan.

  2. Drain under sidewalk

    After much trial and tribulation, I have re-sided my house and had it painted. A quick $25K I apparently didn't really need. Now in the process of having gutters installed. I have one down spout that will empty into a flower bed bordered by a sidewalk, which is bordered by yard. I want to...

  3. Why would someone bury plastic pots and small styrofoam coolers in a bed?

    I wouldn't do it, especially now that plastic conduit is available, but running it bare is allowed. Hell, my TV cable is 4" deep and I can't till parts of my yard. Cable company says they will be glad to give me extra punches on my TS card. Not only that but it runs diagonally across the...

  4. Why would someone bury plastic pots and small styrofoam coolers in a bed?

    Don't be too hard. check the codes on the cable. There is underground rated Romex. I used to be an electrician's helper for commercial work, and as I remember (fifty years ago) we couldn't use it. If you did you had to run it in the same cut as a pipe or something to prevent what you...

  5. GE MAIN BREAKER 150 AMP - WHERE TO FIND

    it stays tripped. Will not re-set. Have been advised that is called "breaker fatigue" Older home (1986) no one in town had one in hand. Found one in Lawrenceville, got it to Athens. As you might infer, power has been restored. Biggest issue other than finding the breaker was having the...

  7. Tub/shower to walk in shower conversion

    the last quote i got from them was before the recent run up.

  8. Tub/shower to walk in shower conversion

    I've used Christian in the past, but it's changed hands, Got an estimate from them for some repair work, and it was out of sight. Million dollar homes going up in Oconee County have given a lot of local folks delusions of grandeur.

  9. Tub/shower to walk in shower conversion

    I want to convert your basic tub/shower FG crapola unit to a walk in shower. I've had people from national companies come out, and they start at about $9k and go up. I'm just not seeing it. I know the cost of everything has gone through the roof, but hey, I can watch You Tube, too, and I just...

    Permeable driveway with plastic grid.

    County regs. Have to "contain" it with a permanent border. My neighbor just threw some rock on the ground, and no one has said anything. I'm trying to fix up to sell and don't want to put in any potential problems. So I'm thinking the grid thing would look a little better/ I worked for...

    Permeable driveway with plastic grid.

    @halo696 ,@hikingthills Did you put down a base of gravel underneath the grid. I just want to make a parking pad next to concrete driveway to get around county parking in the yard issues. i can't just put gravel down, it has to be "retained". I've ;looked it over, and I think me and a couple...

    Wood identification

    Id is easiest with a picture of the end of the board, Clean it up with your pocket knife. Take a picture. Carver hit it, chestnut much more likely than oak. Red oak in particular is not very durable in the weather.

  14. Hardi plank -Athens area

    If any of the ODT crowd is qualified to install Hardi plank, I want to re-do my whole house. Don;t know the dimensions of the walls, but it's 1650 sq. feet, two story. Talked to all the locals, decided if I'm going to take it up the keister, should be from someone I know. I don't need a...

  15. Another GCFI question - UPDATED -- 03/11/2022

    Well, it took me this long to pull the GFCI breaker. Didn't really check it out, I was convinced it was the problem, took it to Lowes, got a standard 20 amp breaker, and everything is good. In the great scheme of things a cheap fix.

  18. Security cameras

    I have just developed a critical need for interior security cameras. What is the best in terms of 1. availability 2. storage capacity 3, ease of installation cost is not much of a consideration, I want the best, especially in terms of resolution. I see videos on line all the time, and the...

  19. Another GCFI question - UPDATED -- 03/11/2022

    The receptacles in the garage are standard, but tied to a GCFI breaker. There are 3 standard outlets in 3 rooms on that circuit, they all are dead, which makes me pretty certain it's a breaker issue. Based on the comments in another thread, I believe numbnuts no. 2 running his compressor for...

  20. Another GCFI question - UPDATED -- 03/11/2022

    Because it's there. :doh: Honestly, never had issues, never noticed it before. Your right, it doesn't make sense. What's funny is the beer refrigerator in the garage has a ground fault, but it doesn't trip the breaker. Based on the age of the house (1985) I suspect the GCFI were put in for...
