    HJ, You're Awesome! Thank you! I've posted this request to three different forums assuming the same thing would happen that happens in IT forums, people exchange and share knowledge and methods and they focus on the questions without trying to evaluate the emotional worthiness or competence...

    need help estimating some tile work

    You know what Doug, I am really struggling to maintain a polite composure with you. How can you even pretend to write software if you can't even keep track of a few points previously covered on a brief thread like this? All I can do is try to ignore you and maybe the thread will somehow...

    need help estimating some tile work

    Yes, thank you. But this case, it would be helpful if somebody could share their input about working times for the tasks I listed above. The customer is buying the materials. I will remember to state that if they want me to pick up, that is not included. I usually work by the hour and have...

    Depending on the geometry of the specific toilet that goes over the flange, if you do happen to end up with a rocking toilet and if other suggestions don't resolve the problem, you might try this: 1) Procure some sanded grout that matches the grout on your floor. 2) Clean the underside edge of...

    Has anybody ordered or seen a Swanklids replacement toilet tank lid?

    Yep. A customer of mine has one of them. It's a good fit to the tank. Eye catchy item. Looks pretty sharp.

    Am I supposed to use a metal washer inside the tank or not?

    I know this isn't a professional recommendation. But I have run into too many defective tanks and bowls that just want to drip at the bolt holes or the fill hole washer. When this happens, it tends to be incorrect curvatures. Maybe one of the bolt holes are too close to the bottom corner of...
