Here are a few shots of the Juliet balcony and the basement handrail I fabricated, painted and installed.

In most of the flower beds I have put down landscaping fabric and 3/4"- 1" washed river stone.

I saved around $1400 cutting the stair stringers myself over getting them fabricated. 

It can be as crude as a trench filled with gravel or include piping and geotextile fabric.- When the drain system cannot be terminated to daylight, then the system is often terminated in a sump crock/pit in which a sump pump is added.

I mean, what does it matter if my legs are covered up with a sheer nylon fabric or not?

If you're only going to use the AquaDefense on the joints, make sure you have the fabric that goes with it (the video series I linked you to above will show you how to use the fabric).

Communists, Globalists, Anarchists, Conspiracy Theorists and useful idiots which are basically the people who do not know why they are there but they have some sorted gripe.They will go away with the cold weather but they will be back periodically to divert attention away from this country's failing economic policies.The Tea Party has already been standing up to the government on bailout and tarp issues which seems to be the only commonality with the Occupy groups.In my opinion the Occupy movement is unsustainable because it is fabricated.

we approach fabricators for their remnants.We recently did an entire 8 ft kitchen counter in granite remnants (admittedly with a couple of joints) dirt cheap.I just picked up a nice 6ft x 26in piece of granite for $30 sq ft with the edges etc done.

You can say that you are at an arms distance and you crossed your T's & dotted your I's, but you are knowingly assisting this person in a crime against the people United States of America.The who cares as long as I get mine at any cost attitude tears at the moral fabric of out nation daily and little by little destroys it.

thing is that if I were to keep the old door, which was ugly and was not providing proper security to my tenants, I would have no problem as it would have been grandfathered by the Historic Commission because that is how I had bought the building.Long story short, I did some research and fabrication + installation of a replica historic door will cost me around $8,000.
