    In most cases insurance is not your friend..
    They could show up and say it’s old mold not related to the water damage so go pound sand and talk to the inspector..
    Sorry Bud..

    Shit Patrick. Sorry to hear about the continued issues. Need to stop looking! It's amazing how well things hold up when you ignore them. Try it!

    Good Morning Stockland

    I talked with my folks, and they both commented on the fact that in 40 years of owning houses they've never had to make an insurance claim for a roof or any other kind of damage. Apparently I'm just a special kind of lucky...

    Black Mold is not something to be taken lightly.

    Have a friend/customer who runs a big indoor dog training facility and rents equipment to the various groups who use the space. She asked my to build some simple/utilitarian storage boxes for those long/collapsible agility dog tunnels. Those things are pretty expensive and were getting beat up just lying on the floor.

    Made some 32"W x 32"D x 24"H boxes with 3/4" BC Plywood. Used my new track saw to rip down the Plywood. Nothing fancy, just butt joints, glue & screws. Was able to make 1 box per sheet. To keep weight down, I didn't add a back. Used some simple corner braces to nearly eliminate any racking. Delivered two yesterday and just wrapped up more today. 4 more to go. Made them to store the largest tunnels. 2 of the smaller ones will also fit.

    Throw a veneer on there to make it look fancy and you could sell them for a chunk of change. Could be the start of your own IKEA.

    Could easily use cabinet grade Plywood and do that.

    First time going to the local kennel for doggy daycare, necessary because of our roof being worked on. I think this photo says enough about which dog got more energy out...

    Its mold. We've been dealing with it since creation. Someone turned it into an industry.
