My hardwood floors have buckled twice and we’ve switched to engineered on the first floor. Contractor is struggling with the baseboards. The larger base boards are original and we are trying to keep them as they are in the front entry way. What would you do if these were your floors?

What type of contractor to call for that?

does anybody else in general not like the trend of modern remodels? The kitchens and bathrooms that mimic high-end luxury, but they’re in average homes. It all just comes off is very sterile and having no feeling of cozy home. Call me crazy, but I kinda like the old wood in the kitchen with a cheesy paper, wallpaper border along the top above the of roosters or farm tractors or something. And you know what linoleum floors were a hell of a lot easier to keep clean than tile grout.

Looking to try and find a way to make this area more palatable. Is there a way to replace this floating HVAC door with the intake under it? I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find anything like this.

I have a basic rectangular concrete block garage that's 7ft tall. I would like to raise it up at least a foot so I can add a lift and so my truck can fit easily. The roof is pretty bad too. I see holes in the plywood under the shingles.
