Search for Mosquito Barrier or Garlic Barrier and use a cheap handheld sprayer from Princess Auto. Buzz Boss used to apply something similar but I got tired of chasing them to come back out. Much...

Who did you use and what's their contact? Sounds reasonable to me. Going by cost of materials from a few years ago, it's already almost half that price.

What's the going rate for sealing?

Check out what Lee Valley has. I got my LED strips and power supply there. I have power to a wall switch connecting down to the power supply in the utility room, then from power supply up to the...

Nope, didn't ask for anything.

Mine failed just a few weeks ago. I gave Liftmaster a call and they sent out free replacement 889LM's. The recall does cover Canada too, just need to call them instead of simply filling in the online...

I talked to a pro who was sealing a neighbors driveway and they recommend SureSeal HS340 with 30% solids. It's pricier at $300 for a 5G pail but supposed to last longer. Unisheen from Unicon only...

The city requires qualified testers to submit results directly back to the city. All that the backflow valve does is prevent potentially hazardous water in your irrigation system leaching back into...

Check out Mr. Bright Lights on Facebook. They're apparently new to the market only charging $975 so undercutting others by quite a bit. Not sure if they can be dimmed cause they seem a bit too bright.

I have a virtually new Ryobi. Only probably about 20mins of run time on it and just been sitting in my garage. I thought I'd use it for the vacuum/mulch function but never have.

MCAP is finally lowering their prime to 2.45% on April 2nd.

1st rate drop MCAP followed along
2nd rate drop MCAP delayed 16 days until April 1st when others dropped on Mar 16th

Here's a chart I found that shows what humidity level Ecobee adjusts to according to outdoor temp and what window efficiency you have selected when Frost Control is turned on. You might want to check...

I put some foam backer rod inside as well for a better seal.

I bought this and have sharpened my blade just once in two years. Will probably do it a bit more often now that I have this sharpener

^Same here. In winter, there's constant condensation on ours. The builder only put in single glazed windows, not sure if double glazed would be that much better.

Although the natural light is...

It would be the granite/quartz countertop guys who do this.

Look up satellite dish installers on Kijiji. These guys install coax for dishes and it's no different than coax for OTA.

You could also change out your blower motor to this one that has also has an option to do a constant low speed run. It helped even out the temps in my house a bit especially with spring/fall temps...

Look into Ikea kitchen cabinets, they're having their kitchen event right now but it happens twice a year usually. If you get the plain white doors, it's pretty inexpensive I think. They even had a...

I just did a thorough comparison of my 2017 and 2018 bills with Enmax variable electricity and gas including the grandfathered $100/yr credit and lower $.47/GJ transaction fee.
Would have saved...

I think that would be specific to your setup depending on how many sprinkler heads you have and length of pipe.

I hook up just a 5.5 gallon compressor set to 50 psi. The compressor fires up after about 45 seconds depending on how big the zone is and the tank completely drains after about 75 seconds. I turn on...

Has anybody tried contacting Enmax? There were a few instances last year where people were getting huge water bills because of meter problems or plumbing issues that made it into the media so the...

I vote for sandblasting. You'll almost get the look of exposed aggregate without having to pay for the upgrade and I think the sandblasted isn't as slippery as exposed aggregate when wet.

There's...

I called Terrafuse a few months ago and pricing for TF 100 Polyaspartic is $136.48/gallon good for 150sq ft, decorative flakes are $215/250sqft. Terrafuse is one of the commercial suppliers in town....

I recently retrofitted a Mars Azure into my furnace in April. It's hard to tell if there's any energy savings so far since the furnace doesn't run much in spring. The motor also has an option to do a...

I converted my electrical light boxes by installing receptacles and covered the octagon box with a round cover like this:

What's cost like for this stuff? My fence is brown pressure treated, I wouldn't mind changing it to grey but with fencing on all 3 sides it's going to add up.

Anybody experience problems after driving on these coatings with studded tires?

For anyone brave enough wanting to try to DIY, here's a couple of local suppliers:

It was a new deck so I used a palm sander to smooth it out and remove any mill glaze from the cedar. That was all that was recommended by the retailer. C2 is supposed to have a 6 year guarantee for...

How did your deck hold up after the winter?

I also used C2 Guard on my cedar deck last year and it's peeling really badly.

According to the City of Calgary's myProperty info the house got approved for a secondary basement suite. Perhaps widening of the driveway was part of the development permit in 2015?

Another angle...

I've heard it's mandated by the city to have that drainage in between triple driveways.



That's a very pricey solution unless you're already having other concrete work done at the same time,...

The post in the ground is called a helical screw pile. I used those for my deck's foundation last year and also had to get stamped engineered drawings for the building permit. Luckily for you, your...

Has anybody looked into a waste oil heater? It'd be nice to just fuel it using used motor oil but my brief search shows they're like 10X the cost of a regular natural gas heater so you would probably...

Morrison charged us $207 to interlock the furnace with the hood fan.

It's a requirement of the building code to do this when the hood fan is between 300-600 CFM. Greater than 600 CFM, requires...
