    Looks more like a purlin to me.

    I have noticed this a few times. A slice in a PVC sump pump discharge line, below the float level. It seems like an odd place for a plumber to have made an accidental cut. Does anyone know why this would have been done? Click to Enlarge 54.08 KB

    Actually the gas container is empty and has never been used. Just thought it was a good picture. Click to Enlarge 33.59 KB

    That'll probably help you regain interest in this forum![:-party]

    Microsoft Sans Serif 8 for the narrative text.

    I inspect 7 days a week. I'll start as early as my client can, but won't start a single family after 2pm. I've done a few condo inspections in the evening. I'm single and I have no kids.[]

    Why does the inspection agreement need to be signed by the buyer of the home? Can't it be signed by the person hiring me to do the inspection, or their authorized agent?

    Jeff, There are some peel and stick EPDM products that would work okay, but if it's H2O shield than it is wrong because it is not UV stable. From the photos, the right-hand side looks like EPDM to me, but the left-hand side looks more like an emulsified coating.

    Metal will set it off. It's good to remember this when checking areas around a metal drywall corner bead.

    ...but he just wouldn't listen. How would you write this up? Be careful, the homeowner (pictured) thinks he knows it all[] Click to Enlarge 39.44 KB

    Is that you pictured in your avatar Kurt?

    Looks like Romex.

    Jerry - It's good to see you change your ways, from the loser avatars (Cubs, Blago & Roland). Way to go![:-thumbu]

    Yes, for a curb mounted skylight like the one shown.

    I actually see bad flashing kit installations frequently, which is confusing to me since I know from personal experience that if you follow the damn install instructions they are water-tight. Velux has some good info and installation diagrams on their website.

    Are you running MS Windows? MS has a free back-up utility that will perform full, incremental and differential back-up's. Assuming that you don't already see it in All Programs>Accessories>System Tools folder you can either install it from your windows install CD, or go to their website and find it there.

    Matthew, If you are see alligatoring it probably the asphalt below the UV coating, and not the coating itself. Thus no need to re-apply.

    I liked the diaper idea better. Shows a little creativity. []

    Diapers?

    Gurgling sounds are symptomatic of a lack of proper venting, not necessarily of s-traps in particular. (Though even genuine s-traps were seldom well vented.) - Jim Katen, Oregon That, of course, was better said.

    You have an S-Trap there. Aren't gurgling sounds symptomatic with S-Traps?
  22. caryseidner
    Me too!

    When I was in the Roofing Biz I used to have to set up a 40' ladder, by myself, about 25 times a week. It sucked and I repeatedly requested a jet pack. Of course I never got one. I'm not sure if it is the recording, my speakers or the actual sound of the engine,but that thang don't sound too good to me. And it looks like it could only replace a my 4' step ladder. I'll stick with my Telesteps & LG for now, but I got my fingers crossed!
