They’ve gotten a lot better. They now approach it as a “good, better, best” strategy so there’s tiers to their products instead of everything being $1 store Chinesium. Look up the orange mower I’m talking about. I also have a few of their power tools and their entire Pittsburgh ratchet sets, the Ocon line is a direct Snap On knock off made in the same factory just different brand name slapped on it. Look at the YouTube reviews so you’ll know what’s up, my mower has dual batteries so if the lawn is harder to cut it draws extra power from the secondary battery and it’s never ran out of fuel on me. I have a very big lawn.

Gutter routing def worked but I'm waterproofing this basement later this year or early next year
We have a high water table and it deciding to flash flood every other few days is ridiculous
I just got a waterproofing quote for my basement and I'm like
I still have 2 more quotes coming, so we will see
In the meantime, about $20 in pavers from Home Depot will def get you by.

That's what i pay per year to have Juan and Pablo cut my grass
Does it provide any shade at all? Been thinking about adding one to the side.Built me a pergola
It actually does surprisingly. Seems to have dropped the temperature on the porch by a few degrees and provides a bit of a breeze so the flies stay away. You can also add some cross boards or a screen to the rafters if you need more shade as well.

Got PMI removed this month, I should’ve done it back in February and not waited since they got me for an additional rack. Save $4k this year alone and about $36k over the next 10 years PMI would’ve been on
Cut the plug off and hardwired a bug zapper to one of the light fixtures on my garage yesterday. The floodlight is on a photocell, but im gonna run the trap 24/7. The piece you see on the front of it is a bait that mimics human breath and supposedly draws biting incests such as horse flies and mosquitoes to it. Because the zapper is just a cheap lil $40 unit, im treating it as disposable, so i used some quick connect/disconnect wire terminals inside the junction box so that i can swap it out quickly in the future without having to mess with any wire nuts.

I need this for real. Front and back, mosquitos are really bad in my house.
And yeah for $40 I would buy 3 or 4 to stock up and once it burns out like you said, just swap it out. If Amazon still sells the same model just keep sending them the burnt out units
Give me all the details on this either here or via dm, need it bad for real.
