I opted for a 24 inch plank wood look tile. the particular item i chose was called redwood from home depot this floor really does resemble wood even close up. having the 24 inch size allowed enough length to look like the real thing.  

About 5 inch is the lagest we go.  

The roof of the top porch has pitched forward a few inches and it either needs to be raised or eventually it will need to be rebuilt.

The roof had been leaking for years - the mold was inches thick in the drywall and ceiling fans looked like upside-down tulips (the pictures are on the web somewhere, I think).

I have a crack on the bottom of a bathtub in the middle of the tub about 6 inches long.

How framing is 16" inches apart.  

We are new to this and need to start inching out of our comfort zone.

A bad tub clog can be easily solved by removing the over-flow face and linkage and snaking down the back of the T the tub drain flows into a few inches in.  

If they are you can spray the insulation right over them if not you must hold the insulation back two inches.

Built like a trailer with 2x3 inch exterior walls and 1x2 or 2x2 interior wall const. which makes them very flimsy and difficult even dangerous to repair.Interior paneling is usually a 3/16 inch photo-finished veneer which for the most part isn't even manufactured any longer.Flimsy aluminum siding no longer manufactured and hard to repair.Trying to replace interior wall paneling and/or aluminum siding with heavier materials which is about all that's available with today's material selections can drastically overload exterior walls causing sagging and settling unless reinforced by perimeter piers which still isn't a good idea for lots of engineering reasons.Roof were usual a 1x2 truss system with a rolled aluminum skin place on top.
