Only set off the smoke detector twice so far... at this rate, I'll be done in 2019

MonBK · 18 February 2017, 05:12 AM

A normal person disconnects the smoke detector.

Rolex addict · 18 February 2017, 05:29 AM

There is. Pay someone else to do it.

rr-nyc · 18 February 2017, 05:29 AM

There is a much easier way- Angie's List and then have a beer

Masteryacht · 18 February 2017, 05:45 AM

This is what I use.

jwkunkle · 18 February 2017, 05:45 AM

I am with the others - call a professional. Go play a round of golf and when you get back it will be done. :-)

Drone flying looks the same on YouTube.

Just put your hands in your pockets and pay up my friend, we all are not handy.

We are happy for that.

Is it safe to let Mon fly a drone?

Sure you can, just take a crash course.

mannyv11 · 18 February 2017, 06:01 AM

There is.... when I used to demo out floors I would go to home depot and get a propane torch. I would then heat the floor up moving the flame fast enough to make the floor extremely hot while not burning anything. After that I would take the flame and get the Putty knife very hot and then slide the putty knife under the flooring and watch it come up like butter.

Tri-Tip · 18 February 2017, 06:04 AM

Put a shower cap over the smoke detector while you are working...problem solved.

You travel a lot, steal the ones from the hotels.

Jocke · 18 February 2017, 06:06 AM

Here is my bathroom we did a few years back.

MonBK · 18 February 2017, 06:16 AM

I don't see a string across the bathroom Paul.

Are you putting that up when you're all done?

There is no toilet, it is a San Diego bathtub.

Yikes!

No DIY here. I gladly pay!!!

Dr.Brian · 18 February 2017, 10:11 AM

That's a tiny bathroom. It should take about 6 minutes to get that tile up!
Do you have to step over the toilet to get into the shower?
I'd change the orientation of the room while you're at it.

Maybe a bridge is needed over the toilet so no one falls in.

What are you doing with the toilet?

To do it right, you need to pull out the toilet and tile around the drain. You'll Then reinstall the toilet when the grout has cured. need a new wax ring to match the new floor height. Seal around the toilet base with a good clear caulk.

That's the plan, I ordered a new toilet, as soon as it arrives I'll start the process
