Amazing Low-Cost Granite Countertops | Engineered Hardwood Floors | Best Paint? Latex vs. Oil | Ep #2192

Listen Later

SHOW NOTES:

  • Adding a beautiful new granite top is a great way to add a little luxury to your kitchen, but granite or stone tops are expensive! We’ll share a less costly alternative that looks just as good.
  • If you love the look of real hardwood but don’t have the budget to manage it, Engineered Hardwood may be a perfect solution. We’ll explain the options.
  • When you take on a painting project, latex paint is the way to go most of the time – but not always. We explain when oil-based paint is the best choice and why - even though the clean-up is a little harder.

    • Plus, get answers to your home improvement questions:

    • Debra from Tennessee asks if using dry lock in the basement is the best way to stop leaks.
    • Murray in Illinois needs advice replacing his natural gas water heater. 
    • Stacey from Minnesota wants to know if she can use mortar and limewash to fill in the gaps on her brick fireplace.
    • Phillip in Rhode Island wants to know how to get red cedar shingles to age darker.
    • Marty is asking why she isn’t getting hot water fast enough to her bathroom.
    • Jan in South Dakota wants to know how to level a concrete floor.
    • Vincent from Texas wants to know how to fix a collapsing chain link fence in an area that floods easily.
    • Debbie in Delaware is looking for the best way to repair a popcorn ceiling that is not adhering properly.
    • Jacob from Arizona needs help repairing a crack on the garage ceiling.
