If you need a hand with the tile I can assist. I know nothing about tiling but I plan on doing my kitchen and would rather fuck up someone elses before I do my own…LOLZ. No but seriously I can assist.

Grossmans is good if they have what you’re actually looking for. The thing about that place is their inventory changes a lot, and what on the floor is all they have…so you can’t do a project in pieces, you gotta buy everything you need in one stop or you could end up going back and not have the last pieces you need that match to finish…such as buying some kitchen cabinets.

One of the first houses I put an offer in on is actually one street over from there on Bannard, but multiple offers drove the price out of my range :tdown:. My brother has a house a few streets over from you on Utica.

No way, Lowes trumps depot.  
The variety and quality is much better.  
Plus they treat their employees better.
