How long should a paint job last on interior wood windows?
Comments (5)5 years, but as said, this depends on the amount of condensation. Some people don't even understand what the humidifier is for. A properly painted surface will only be able to withstand constant exposure to moisture for two years or so before the surface starts to fail. If I were to buy a new house, I would keep some touch up paint around and only recoat the areas near the glass as they start to show wear....See MoreHow long should a lawn mower last?
Comments (76)OK, 1st of all let’s not assume either of us live in the same country or share the same currency here. My data is accurate. Here’s what I am seeing when I go to homedepot.ca (CDN Currency). Cheapest model is a Ryobi 18V 13” mower ($238 CDN), most expensive mower is a Toro 60V 22” mower ($1,148 CDN). I could not find a single replacement battery for the Ryobi but a 2-pack is $148 CDN, so let’s put the value at $386 CDN which converts to $290 USD. The Toro battery is $581 CDN so that puts us at $1,729 CDN or $1308 USD. Again, in both situations I would want to buy a replacement battery in case I can’t finish mowing my lawn before the battery dies and to get 4 years out of the mower, or more ideally. If I go to homedepot.com the cheapest mower is a Sun Joe 28V 14” mower ($176) and the most expensive is a Makita 18V x2 21” mower ($849). If I add the replacement battery again it’s $149 (this was not available at Home Depot but I did find it on their website (40V not 28V). But again if you wanted to get 4-5 years out of it you are investing $325 for the Sun Joe 14”. The Makita batteries are $219 putting the price up to at least $1,068, but in this case you are just maxing out the 4-bay battery system, to have an equivalent backup you should actually buy 6 which would bring you up to $1,506. So in both cases the battery powered mowers really range from $290 and $1308 or $325 to $1506. So let’s round it off at $300 - $1,400 to get 4-5 years out of battery powered mowers. All I’ve invested in a gas mower is $453 USD for the mower $4.50 for oil and $7 for gas. 5 years from now I doubt my costs will be much more than about $550 USD but let’s say they are $650 USD, that’s still really cheap and I didn’t have all that stalling and bogging down. The cost of batteries are also going up as there is considerable costs to manufacture them, and 18V batteries just don’t give you enough power for most people....See MoreHow long should a child’s dresser last?
