We hired the repointing outside the house, because it had to look good and last a long time in the weather. For the basement, I'm gonna give it a go myself.<br /><br />I can't imagine how anyone could live in an old house and not pick up some home-improvement skills along the way. I was really handy before we bought ours, and I'm a whole lot better than that now.Connie in Hartwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09127877285792861166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267112243358908208.post-85495418215181800382011-01-06T10:48:59.335-05:002011-01-06T10:48:59.335-05:00I feel the same way about our house; I'm learn...I feel the same way about our house; I'm learning all kinds of thinks about home maintenace. this is actually a projec that we are looking to do too so thanks for sharing your experience!!Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02457598081144043699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267112243358908208.post-53513987202107554572011-01-05T18:18:54.243-05:002011-01-05T18:18:54.243-05:00totally understand! i live in nyc and it's ver...totally understand! i live in nyc and it's very discouraging to wake up to crunchy, dirty week-old snow! thanks for sharing xohanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16495534410150095776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267112243358908208.post-39161513410252930812011-01-05T17:18:25.620-05:002011-01-05T17:18:25.620-05:00Hi Kelley, yea, what AM said about checking the se...Hi Kelley, yea, what AM said about checking the sewer lines...in several homes I owned I had to get them snacked once per year to keep the roots from taking over, all city residences I might add...but glad to see you back to blogging... good luck with the remodel..keep us up to date...it's fun to watch your progress.. maureenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267112243358908208.post-56213429147911678322011-01-05T11:48:36.809-05:002011-01-05T11:48:36.809-05:00What kelleyp said!!!

If you're on sewer, one thing to check early on is the state of the sewer lines. Enjoy the process, I love when you post pictures of what you're doing.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475433199308666648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267112243358908208.post-37403159466077469362011-01-05T11:22:57.230-05:002011-01-05T11:22:57.230-05:00i have no idea how you live in that cold weather! ...i have no idea how you live in that cold weather! i can't make it out of bed at all and i live in Phoenix!!
