Over time you'll hopefully get thicker skin and not get so worked up over issues.

Their paint is thicker thus why it cost a little bit more.

Full disclosure, I'm licensed myself)To create a legal / authorized suite is simply addressing a laundry basket of safety items such as:- fire separation between living units (typically amounts to thicker drywall, fire doors, etc..)- interconnected smoke detectors- bedroom windows- proper plumbing ventilation- separate controllable heat sources- access to electrical panel controlling suite for tenantetc..One thing that I do NOT like about the new bylaws is that work must be outsourced to a licensed contractor.

It's thicker and warmer.

Painting over it doesn't work because if the door is rubbing the jam, the  new paint is just going to rub off in a couple of weeks anyway since you just made the components thicker.

Usually, only heating oil USTs associated with commercial properties are regulated. thus, most home heating oil tanks may and often are taken out of service without any oversight from state regulators.Second- the rules that are in effect for heating oil tanks are usually less stringent than for diesel or gasoline tanks since heating oil tends to thicker and may not migrate as far. as a result, many states just require tanks to be cleaned out. they may also require the tanks to be filled with sand or concrete to prevent collapse. but sampling may not be required.Third- the key to determining if a tank has leaked is to collect soil samples from around and beneath the tank (groundwater also if groundwater is shallow). another quick way to see if a tank is leaking is to "dip" it with a stick that has a paste that turns color in the presence of water. generally, if water has gotten into a tank, it can mean oil has leaked out of the tank (although a certain amount of condensation may be present even where there is no leak so this is not a infallible test).Fourth- if there is currently a tank in the basement, ask the owner if there used to be a buried tank (a/k/a underground storage tank).Fifth, If the tank has impacted the soil, the cleanup generally varies from $25K to $50K though the costs will depend ont he depth of the contamination. i once had a home with a heated pool that had pressurized piping and used diesel. the contamination went down 40 feet and the consultant went crazy excavating the soil to the tune of $400K!!!

And around here cost was $39 a square foot while the tile came in at under $10 s/f.The large tiles I used here are ker tiles(kertile.com) and because of the large size they are much thicker than a smaller tile.

The thicker click together version at HD is 100% waterproof and gets good reviews on these forums.

The answer is, like most things, yes and no.Yes, thicker drywall can help, which is why quite rock works, but not why you may think.

@Josh Wilson as a pilot in the military you should have a thicker skin.
