Do you love or hate your glass shower walls?
Comments (16)I love it! I won't lie...they are a bit more work, however I wouldn't change my decision. Our bathroom is extreamly small and the frameless glass shower just opens the space up so much. Ours: - Plain glass - No "shower guard" treatment (although I did buy an aftermarket product that I put on the glass to help repel water...similar to RainX) - We have semi-hard water (no softener...yet!) - We both squeegee every time we shower (if we didn't ours probably would be spotted with water marks) - Timing - never timed myself, but 4-5 minutes sounds about right. Husband is quicker, but I have to admit I am more detailed...taking the extra time to wipe down with a "ShamWow' type of towel. It may be a minute more but the shower just looks "clean" when all the chrome fixtures are shiny! - Our shower has marble floor so we use very mild cleaning products - We use liquid soap (this is very important!) We have had our shower for 1 year. No issues although we did get some mineral build up along the plastic strip at the bottom of the shower door. I just took the plastic strip off used some liquid bar keepers friend and it was as good as new. Once we get the water softener I think that issue will hopefully go away....See MoreTell Me about your garden. What do you love? What do you hate?

Comments (23)Out pet door will be accessed on the inside from built in cabinets that are actually the pet crate. So critters cant really get too far :) Sounds like an excellent design. A skunk's influence reaches great distances. Tell me about it. We have a significant skunk problem in our neighborhood, and I'm talking about a suburb with big lots, not the country. Do you know that skunk stink can wake you from a sound sleep? I worry most about my dog tangling with a skunk -- She's a wild puppy (Husky mix), and she has no sense of danger -- I think that's the most likely problem. In reality, skunks don't want to come into your house -- your porch maybe, if you've left out food, but they're afraid of a place where people are around. I have heard of a few people in my city having racoons come through the door at night to raid the kitchens and dog bowls. Yeah, raccoons have little fear of people -- they'll show you their teeth and let you know their plans for you. Last summer our chimney cap blew off in a storm, and a raccoon mama "set up shop" with her babies. For a couple days I thought I was hearing a bird trapped in the chimney. I climbed into the fireplace, stuck my head way up there, opened the vent and YIKES, I was nose to nose with a teenaged-racccoon. You know those guys are the #1 rabies-carrier, right? Let me tell you, I moved FAST. I ordered some male raccoon urine online ($30 + shipping for a tiny bottle & ultra-smelly) and shoved a soaked rag up into the vent. I waited until early evening so mama would be comfortable taking the babies out in the twilight -- they evacuated quite quickly, and we got busy fixing our chimney cap. Once a skunk came in through the dryer vent. We had a mama chipmunk come into our dryer vent (that's what we get for having ivy growing up the side of our house). We ran the dryer and baked her and the babies. We just about died from the smell. This is a very good reason to insist that your dryer is placed on an exterior wall -- because our dryer vent was so short, it was easy/cheap for us to replace the vent and "throw away the problem"; had it been on an interior wall, we would've had to live with the stench until we could get a pro out. Trust me, the skunk smell is evil, but it is better than something dead. I have seen ones that only open with a special sensor on your dog/cats collar which prevent critters from getting in. I have no experience with these, but they sound like a great idea....See MoreDo you love or hate your countertop over the washer and dryer?
Comments (6)Servicers hate boxed-in laundry appliances and may charge more for repair jobs. Some may refuse to do service unless the homeowner removes the appliance for access. Keep in mind that proper diagnosis/testing to determine a problem and post-repair testing to confirm the fix requires the appliance be connected to power, and often water supply/drain for a washer. The machine would need to be taken to a garage or patio with water and electric available or to an off-site location if the boxing-in impedes power/water access in the laundry room with the machine pulled far enough out of the boxing for service....See MoreBumblebeez SC Zone 7
