What Home Improvement have you done...

[zipper]

that's a lot of saw dust !! do you use it in any way or how do you dispose of it ?

We use it in the horse's stalls instead of buying shavings.

Installed a pantry, cabinet above the washer/dryer and painted the laundry room this weekend.

From suspect looking 2x4s to gorgeous laundry room in one picture, lol. Nice work, looks great.

What a great design! We have the same washtower unit and I sure hope my wife doesn’t see this photo of your handiwork!

Finally finished my deck rehab to Composite. Got an exact paint match to paint all the edges and unfinished areas. Made my wife some new flower box holders. Glad its done

 

[Marvin willis]

Rebuilt it after Florence myself

After 5 years of parking in the dirt behind my driveway, put this together over the last week or so. Concrete pad and hot tub were projects from earlier in the year. Next up is regrading the area in between with new topsoil and seed. Still need to finish leveling out the gravel and tamp it down some, but had to get the boat back in so the topsoil truck had a spot to dump.

It’s nice having a separate arking area for the boat.

Did you stamp the concrete pad?

Did open floor plan and kitchen/dining room/bathroom. Etc. took me a year and a half wrenching everyday after work but worth the time and dedication.

Yeah, we had it stamped. Looks really nice, but a little more slippery than a brushed finish.

Very nice job all around!

Bonus kudos for the kitchen work, one job I would bring in help with.

Love the dining table. Did you also build this as well?

Did not do the live edge table. A good friend of mine had done it for me.

Just replaced the attic power vent motor and thermostat. 90* outside and well over 110* in the attic space. Nice & sweaty afterwards.

 

[charlivenum]

We replaced all of our old furniture, which has greatly improved the look of our home. Our house is quite old, so replacing the furniture has freshened it up nicely. Also, we took care of our comfort and replaced the same chairs, tables and sofas with more comfortable ones, as everyone in the family has back problems. For the child we chose electric adjustable desks so that he could comfortably study and play on the computer.

I’m almost done building “good neighbor” gates to match the fence I built a few weeks ago.
Edit: added pics of new fence and part of the old fence as well.

 

[CraigAR]

Just finished installing new floors and baseboard. It was not fun while living here but the outcome was worth it.

The deck around my new above ground pool is almost done, just waiting on some privacy lattice from Home Depot.

i have a lot of storage space under the deck and the solar blankets/water heaters are mounted to the top of the overhang in the center of the deck, theyalso provide shade at the rear of the deck.

I just assembled the umbrella and filled the base with 200 pounds of sand per the instructions, like everything with this build, easy to say but difficult to do.

Wanted to install some permanent holiday lighting, so put a test strip up on the back patio to put it through its paces before I start doing it for real. So far so good, I think! (Tent over the tub for the two weeks of non stop rain we've been having, lol)

 

[adrianp89]

I really like the permanent lighting. Can go holiday or just everyday.

Its individually addressable too, so once fully installed will probably have a couple lights on at night set to warm white for some accent lightning.
