Halp Engineered hardwood flooring is a bag of crap

[Amstel]

But I do like the idea of an obedient woman.

 

[Mrs. Valve]

Pfft. I'm the one that wanted to tear up the floor instead of laying the new one over. I'm also the one that's been wielding the chisel and scraper for days . BGSD son

You guys finish this up or what?

Fucking right I did. You need a break.

Should have got a home inspection.

Should have got a home inspection.

"Yes, the home was inspected before it was purchased, and the inspector did find some problems as expected. But most of the problems described below were cleverly hidden behind finished drywall, carpeting, and concrete where the inspector couldn't see them."

That guy really needs to separate that site out by months or something. That's crazy tho.

Unless you put $35k down. Then you'd think twice.

It was a joke. Figured most here would get it.

Guy should have started a fire at one of the panel boxes and let the place burn.

He got a home inspection, you know.

No shit. All of those out of code junction boxes, I'm sure one of them next to flammable material would be prone to catching on fire.

For what that dude spent fixing that dump he could have torn it down and started new.

 

[gee]

I would have bought a kettle, space heater or something else that draws a solid 15A, and tried it on every outlet in the house. Guaranteed you'd start an in-wall fire.

 

[Mrs. Valve]

The floor has been fully scraped and leveled. I just finished up the last of the scraping and the Meester is cleaning up for me now.

New floor goes down Monday!!

Maybe, it just depends on whether I was able to sink the next $80k into it

65k?

 

[Valve1138]

65k?

 

[Casper]

That is nothing. And it's an amount of money that can be walked away from. I also find it hard to believe there is no legal recourse against the seller.
