Prog's Home Improvement thread

Anyone good with cabinets lol? I may or may not have fucked mine up with the new hardware.

How bad did you butcher them?

If you install an exhaust in the bath, please don’t vent into the attic. We typically use the soffit with a nice little flapper vent I get from my plumbing supplier.

Not bad, they just aren’t lining up with the new hardware on them. Old hardware is complete crap and in the garbage.

What’s the price on doing something like that. My plan was to vent it right outside (if possible). It’s a straight shot probably 4-5ft max duct run.

Love watching these type of threads. Keep up the progress!

Kitchen updating.

Old style that JayS loved.

Little bit of paint and cabinets repainted + new hardware…they’re not all up yet, hopefully this weekend. All the cabinets and drawers also have the rubberized liners in them, which I like. The walls with the red paint took three coats to get looking smooth and cover.

Wow was that wall paper awful. We have something similar in our front hall that we only use for trick or treaters or moving furniture. Its about as equally horrible.

Looks a million times better!

My paint would’ve done it in 2… just sayin’. Lol. Looks much better, good job.

If you want to get it off I have the tool that scores the paper. I’ll gladly lend it to you.

It was Sherwin Williams Paint…

Ben Moore is the ONLY paint to use for deep colors like that.

Now you fucking tell me :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m good. I don’t go in there enough to put any work into it!

All Cabinets are now in:

Got rid of the fggt chandelier for a nicer light:

It’s this one:

Changed out the old turn dial thermostat for a touchscreen programmable thermostat…Walls will be painted so ignore the shitty walls.

Haha. Boob light.

My boob thing went off.

My fiancee was the one that commented that it looked like a boob. I believe she called it a nipple light

Shit I haven’t updated this in a long while:

Had Andy (1QIKZ) Stop by yesterday and install a new bathroom light/exhaust fan for me. Tested it out today and my floors creak louder than this thing runs. Absolutely no steam on the mirrors. Took him and his coworker ~3 hours from start to finish (No existing fan in place). Came out really nice, and they cleaned up everything.

Updated the living room:

Kitchen:

Bedroom:

Thanks man, glad you like it. You make a mean cup of coffee to boot. Timmy Ho’s got nothin on you.

Place is looking good

Thanks! Working on painting my back hall and front foyer. The front was wood paneling which we primed yesterday. We’ll see how shitty it turns out.
