Do you want a warm home?

Today we discuss the different types of insulation.

It’s not a bad idea to explore your options.

And that’s what we do.

My last recommendation on spray foam is kind of a DIY horror story.

Worth a listen.

PLUS: the deal of the day is 40% off portable heaters.

You should check that out if your house is chilly but only in one room.

Do you hate being cold?

Right now is a perfect time to insulate your home.

If your walls are open you should add batt insulation.

If you only have access to your attic, you should start there with insulation.

It will make a HUGE difference in your heating bill.

Listen to the show for several tips on how to insulate your walls and ceilings.

Here’s the link to Home Repair Tutor, you’ll see how we insulated my buddy’s walls and ceilings

Laminate flooring is on big time sale at Home Depot.

$1.79 a square foot for this laminate instead of $2.99.

Laminate flooring is easy to install, seriously a weekend project anyone can do.

One of my biggest pet peeves is cutting metal trim pieces at eye level.

This is bad.

If you’re installing metal trim in your bathroom to end a tile run, make the cut close to the floor…NOT at eye level.

More on this in the show.

DeWalt announced their new impact driver.

It has 3 different speeds!!

This gives you a lot of different torque options as well.

Which is great for installing drywall vs. cement board.

IMO every homeowner should have an impact driver…literally has saved me hours of my life.

Plus: today we give a great tip on how to install glass tile mosaics over KERDI-BOARD.

Do you want instant hot water in your bathroom?

You should check out point of use tankless electric instant water heaters.

Initially I didn’t think this was an interesting topic.

But not having hot water in the bathroom is a super common problem.

And these instant water heaters are a HUGE solution.

They’re on sale today at Home Depot for about 40% off.

Btw, HD isn’t paying me to announce these deals. I figured you don’t have time to find the deals and thought it would be cool to announce them on the podcast.

Check out the deal of the day by searching for ATMOR Tankless Electric Instant Water Heaters.

PLUS: we discuss how to fix loose door hinges…

Being without power sucks.

It has saved me hours.

Here’s an Amazon link for you to check it out

http://amzn.to/20EmRAk

I don’t care if you use the Amazon link or not, just wanted to give you some way to see the rake.

Plus, one of my fans is planting tulips and gave me this great idea:

…use a plant auger.

You can attach it to your drill and drill holes in the ground without bending over.

Cool.

Here’s the link to that nifty tool

Again, just wanted to you to have the reference, don’t care if you use the link to buy
