Adding fiber mesh to the mix greatly reduces the cracking. 

The rod that works the pop-up stopper tends to catch any hair or fiber and combined with soap residue makes clogs. 

And most of them are literally low-lives...Constructors, handymen, property managers - you literally have to go through 100 to find one person with moral fiber worth anything.  

The city will likely want an engineer to sign off of the plans stating what type of footers exist, the amount of rebar in place, fiber mesh, etc. in my experience building, unless you have the pre-existing homes plans and can still build that home according to current standard, it's likely a liability and could be a negotiating tool.

We are upgrading our internet to a fiber connection, and have found that most of our young tenants are watching their television through streaming internet.  

I recommend shooting cabinets with an airless paint sprayer if you want them to look good without residual fibers from a roller or orange peeling/brush streaking.

Scam artists know this, and because of their weak moral fiber, they try to profit from this monument time in a person’s life.

The fiber cement products -- James Hardie, Nichiha, Certainteed, etc. -- can be good performers, but even the pre-finished versions will typically require fresh paint in 5-10 years.  

I have used (as suggested by a roofer) the fibered aluminum coating on a flat modified roof and it has worked well.

I'm by no means internet savvy whatsoever either, however I do know that I have qwest.com as my internet server and run a 20mbps fiber optic connection. pages load instantly with virtually no lag at all.10second to load a page would drive me crazy!!!
