@CollinJHumphrey @JeffGrenz 2-12,

@akolyadich @JeffGrenz Looks awesome! How much slope did y’all end up doing on that one?

According to the Tile Council of North America handbook, they recommend a steam shower ceiling slope of 2 inches per foot. On paper, that sounds great. In real life? That’s steep as hell. Anybody actually got one sloped like that?

@JeffGrenz @CollinJHumphrey Wonder why? Great option for steam shower

@CollinJHumphrey "mortar bed" I don't see any notes for alternates We do slope ceilings, IDK the actual. Tile contractor refuses to use jumbo tile on ceiling.

@JeffGrenz Not enough shingles

Clip #2 from my drive today What do you see?

@JeffGrenz Bo has been busy

Leading indicator from truss engineers

@jamesonhaslam What amount do you recommend for the first bribe?

you guys are sending targeted mailers to prospective clients I’m sending them to city staffers and building department officials

@CollinJHumphrey No slowing down in CA

Why all the contractors getting 2008 vibes?

@jamesonhaslam Doug fir euro cabinets

one of my current favorite cabinet cos (vermland out of Denmark)

@SacAppraiser 4-5’ setbacks, box houses, no variety in design. No trees, no room for trees. Might as well have row homes with mass transit in mind and central shopping. This is just dystopian.

@SacAppraiser Nobody wants to live in a faux apartment complex neighborhood

What's behind the numbers? This is exactly why we want to ask that question. Folsom volume was down from last year, but it was really Folsom Ranch south of Highway 50 that didn't have as many sales on MLS.

@AlexForbesOps Get the Diesel Yukon

With 2 kids and multiple road trips per year, we’re ready to upgrade my wife to a family hauler. She loves Yukons. Dream car for her. It’s time for her to have one but I don’t want to break the bank. I know these 6.2s have some issues but these things are still all over the roads. Would you be concerned with a 2022 with 65,000 miles? This is from a local dealer where she has always gotten her cars from.

@mattbaran Beautiful. Love the rooftop deck

5 more homes we’re working on (where once we could have 2) Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight for single family housing!

I can’t remember the last time I ordered using the speaker box. Anyone else?

@jamesonhaslam If you don’t do it you’ll regret it

I’m sure most of you are logged off but you need to look at this pool (and deck) in the Hollywood hills: The pool (and deck) are stacked on top of a massive grade beam + caisson assembly the drop from the edge of the deck is easily 75+ ft needs new framing, decking, railing

@jamesonhaslam We never thought to ask

Do we think the eggs in egg McMuffins come from chickens or

@jamesonhaslam @WhatsApp @GoogleWorkspace @gowithquo @HubSpot @JobTread This is a Solid Stack

@GrulkeLamonte The key is to make calculated design decisions that make it “look” quality, but still priced as low as possible. 90% of the market wouldn’t know the difference between real quality vs a facade

It’s taken me time to realize this. But most people don’t care about the quality of the home. They just want it big, nice finishes, and priced as low as possible.

@mwmoedinger @DallasAptGP I would consider adding depth to the closet, since the hallway gets pinched anyway, reducing width of the closet, which along with stacking the W/D, would allow for a bigger pantry.

Really good! 1. Stack that w/d 2. Use extra space for kitchen pantry 3. Swing bathroom door in (unless you can't for ADA reasons 4. Move patio/balcony door closer to kitchen to allow better circulation pattern 5. No DHW or AHU shown, so assuming you're handling hot water and HVAC centrally?

Rate this studio floorplan

@shawngorham @jamesonhaslam It’s mostly peaceful firewood

@jamesonhaslam you know its illegal to burn that in most of CA, right? haha

emergency measures taken

@Boenau A standard SUV can make 7.5 billion passes over a highway road before it needs repair. So if I pay 0.71 in taxes per gallon, How much taxes would I pay driving 7.5 billion times over a 25 mile stretch of highway at 25 MPG? And what is the cost to replace that road? @grok

The question you should be asking is whether $0.71/gallon is enough to cover the costs of car infrastructure. The answer is no.

@MaxArmand @NotJustTheNorm Solid range

@NotJustTheNorm I can do it for $15-18k (I’m a GC)

What's ballpark to convert this combo to a shower?
