I could spend hours telling you horror stories about pet damage.I have vinyl plank  in one of my units - my concern is that although each individual plank is waterproof (it IS plastic, after all!)

Our slab guy didn't install a ground rod in the slab, so we had to ground it outside the slab and it took some discussions between them.Also in 2015 a LOT of electrical codes changed, we've run into this issue on several projects the last few weeks where even though our permits were pulled in 2014 and technically the new codes shouldn't be enforced, the inspectors are enforcing them anyways, so some other nitpicky stuff like installing plastic wire holders instead of using staples and having to mount sconce and pendant lights to the structure instead of leaving wires in the walls had to be addressed.  

In 2021 I had to file a claim for a property because of a faulty plastic piece connected to the toilet.

Wrap them in 3mil plastic and duct tape the ends.

@Larry Fried, Thanks for the welcome and reply.

Covered in plastic with negative air flow pressure sucking any dust away.

About a year or so ago, before Covid, I realized I was now financially free and so are my parents and so many others I have helped (for free) on BP since Podcast 238 by advising and talking on the phone etc...I just wanted all the people on BP to know that since BP Podcast 238 aired, I have been  talking and leaving my phone line open mon-fri 3:15-6:15 and teaching and giving back to people on BP since way before podcast 238 and thereafter and will continue to do so!! 

@Reginald Mitchem@Mark Fries is a local expert and he has your back!!

@Larry Fried pm if you have a good offer

I am willing to look outside my area and am determined to make this happen.I currently work in the plastics industry and make a very decent living but have realized during the past few years that i need to continue to move forward for my kids and our family.It took a lot of courage to finally introduce myself but i know that these forums can open multiple opportunities and i will fight through all my personal hang ups to make this happen.
