Sandra asks… Neighbor’s logging to drastically reduce property values of 12 homes – legal action? I live in a relatively rural area. Recently, people in our area were contacted about selling our forest areas as lumber. My neighbor agreed to do so. She owns about 40 acres, including the heart of our block.

It will drastically effect the property values of about 12 homes abutting this land, and it will be an eyesore for many years to come.

There is even a natural spring leading to a pond, and this spring is considered “environmentally... more

Chris asks… Installing Free Floating Laminate Wood Floors? I am a first time home owner looking to install the free floating laminate flooring myself. I was wondering if anyone else did this and has success stories, horror stories, or advice. We are looking to cover roughly 800 square feet. I have ambition, patience, and the will to do projects myself but lack the experience. I will take any advice you are willing to share. Thanks in advance! admin answers: 1. Ask the sales rep lots of questions about the specific flooring that you are purchasing. Not all laminates are made the same. 2. Read the guidelines on edge spacing VERY carefully. If it says it needs a 3/8″ gap all he way around, make sure it is there. This is used for... more
