1
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: All right, it's the weekend. Welcome aboard. You're at home

2
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: with Gary Sullivan, taking it through another weekend, getting a

3
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: few things done around the home. And by the way,

4
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,239
Speaker 1: just for your information, this hours brought to you by

5
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: Wet and Forget. Soon we'll be talking about their outdoor projects.

6
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,239
Speaker 1: But today let's talk about an indoor project. It's the

7
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: Wet and Forget weekly shower cleaner. You've heard me talk

8
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: about it. It's the ultimate no scrub shower cleaner. Spray

9
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: it on once a week. And this is not bleach

10
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: anything like that, so no odors do a great job.

11
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 1: Just probably once a week. It helps control you know,

12
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: hard water stains and molds and mildews and all that.

13
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: You can pick it up at Walmart, Home Depot, Low's, Amazon,

14
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: Tractor Supply and Target. Hey, what do you want to

15
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: talk about today? I got a whole list. One of

16
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: the things. I know, it's still very, very cold. It's

17
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: really shaping up. Is I don't know, I didn't pay

18
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: attention to records are analyzed, but each of the Mississippi

19
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: one of the chillier snowier winners than we've had in

20
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: the past. I don't know, forty to fifty years and

21
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: there's being colder ones. Don't get me wrong, but there's

22
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: been a lot going on out west, not as bad.

23
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: But I want to talk really a little bit today

24
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: as we weave around your phone calls, which you're more

25
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: than capable of grabbing that phone line and happy to

26
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: discuss what you'd be working on. But fireplace safety, we're

27
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: going to have a CSIA certified a chimney expert on

28
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: in the next hour. I think we all start getting

29
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: a little you know, if you're burning wood, we get

30
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: a little more, you get a little careless. I think

31
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: the more you burn, the more careless you get, maybe

32
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: even around the storage part of wood. So I want

33
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: to talk about that. I also want to talk about

34
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: if you have a garage or a area where you

35
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: store stuff and you park your car in, and if

36
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: you're parking your car in and you live in a

37
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: cold climate, you're probably bringing in salt and slush and gunk.

38
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: What are we going to do and how are we

39
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: going to clean that up? And is there anything we

40
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: can do to protect that concrete because that's a big expense,

41
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: So I want to cover that. Obviously, we'll talk about

42
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 1: insulation and ventilation very very important this year. And then

43
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: the other thing is your house making weird noises? And

44
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: I asked that question to folks that live in this

45
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: part of the country where maybe we have some really

46
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: really cold nights and maybe it's going to warm up

47
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: this week, or maybe some of the you know, up

48
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: in the attic, you got trusses and wood and joyce

49
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: and all this, and some's covered with insulation, some is not,

50
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: and there's a little battle going on with expansion and contraction,

51
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: and that very well could be noises. Or maybe the

52
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: noises in your house is gurgling from the drains. What's

53
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: going on there. We'll talk about that. Let me give

54
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: you the phone number. It's eight hundred eighty two three

55
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: eight two five five to hear from you. Let's go

56
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: to wolf Hill leave us off.

57
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 2: Welcome, sir, thank you very much for taking a call.

58
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 2: I stumbled on two things. One an outdoor woodstove vendor

59
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: or distributor, whoever you want to call it, who is incredible,

60
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 2: I mean, very very courteous, and I wanted to just

61
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 2: mention that. And then the second thing that I stumbled

62
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 2: upon was a I don't know what you call it.

63
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 3: It took the ice.

64
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 2: It dried the cement steps I had, so no ice

65
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 2: accumulated on it. And then after this big snowstorm here,

66
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 2: I was able to blow off some of it and

67
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 2: then brush off some of them with a broom. And

68
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 2: I'm trying to say this to you and share what

69
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 2: I found without it sounding like promotional.

70
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?

71
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, So what did you use on those steps?

72
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 2: Go now O g O n A n O v

73
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 2: A dot com is where I found it.

74
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 3: It was the website.

75
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is. I just know that

76
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 2: it went into the step. This gonano v A dot

77
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 2: com was where I found it. And inside the step

78
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: they said it would get into capillaries of the cement

79
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 2: and other other.

80
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: Uh uh surfaces.

81
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 2: But this worked on removing, not allowing.

82
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 3: The ice to form on the cement. So so when

83
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 3: I went to get it off it, I had the

84
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 3: inches of snow It'll get me wrong, and I had

85
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 3: ice on top of it, but there was no au.

86
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 2: It was easy to remove, is what I'm trying to say.

87
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: Was this a liquid or was this a pellet or

88
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: it was a spray.

89
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: They put a spray down there. It was like like

90
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 2: a powerwasher guy came out and was just put a

91
00:05:55,160 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 2: spray down and the spray uh. When I called company,

92
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 2: they said it was a hydro something hydro phobic, hydrophobic

93
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 2: a repelled the water so it didn't allow moisture to accumulate,

94
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 2: therefore no ice, you see what I mean?

95
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: Sure, sure, yeah, I'm not familiar with that. I know

96
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: there's a lot of products out there that do pre treating,

97
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: you know, where it minimizes the ice build up and

98
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: even the snow build up to a certain degree. But

99
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:32,359
Speaker 1: this sounds like it's almost like a type of a

100
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: sealer that would penetrate into the capillaries. I know.

101
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 2: I went, I went, I went to a hardware and

102
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 2: a few other places, and they have seilers. But this

103
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: is not a sealer, something that goes in and in

104
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 2: the capillary of like a cement saying to take the

105
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 2: moisture out or maybe it prevents. All I know is

106
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 2: that they had it, had this one guy to come

107
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 2: out to install it. It's not over the counter.

108
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: Product, so it's a surface va dot com.

109
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 3: If you look it up, you can tell.

110
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 2: Me about it, all right, well, listeners, I mean. And

111
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 2: then the other question was on the outdoor outdoor. My

112
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: son's building a.

113
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 3: House outdoor woodstove.

114
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 2: The guy was in a really good guy heart something Heartstone.

115
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 2: I don't know now, I can't mess this up, but

116
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 2: the point is that the guy was very courteous and

117
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 2: he wasn't selling me anything.

118
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 3: He was showing me.

119
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 2: A tremendous amount of information on outdoor woodstove because it

120
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 2: avoids the home hazard. Of course, you know what I'm saying,

121
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: Like a lot of people here in the Shenando Valley

122
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 2: use it, and I see it everywhere, these outdoor woods stoves,

123
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: and I was very curious about it. Before my son

124
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: finishes the house. He has propane tanks, but I wanted

125
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: to give him alternative heat source. So if you could

126
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 2: talk about outdoor woodstoves, you know versus pellets and indoor

127
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 2: stove that kind of thing. Just to shit the information.

128
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of this guy's name that was

129
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 2: up in the oh.

130
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: Well, I know there is a company Heartstone, and I'll

131
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: look into that and I appreciate your call. Well, thank

132
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: you very much. The information regarding the concrete, I'm not

133
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: really sure what it is. I'll look it up after

134
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: the show and kind of become a little bit familiar

135
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 1: with it. And I know he said it's not a sealer,

136
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: and I'm sure it's not. But there are many, many

137
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: different types that concrete seilers. And one of the ones

138
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: I talk about obviously is a surface coating which gets

139
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 1: a sheene and that's not going to help you out.

140
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: But there are seilers that are penetrants. Just like you said,

141
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: concrete is hard, but it has capillaries. There's perosity to

142
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: that concrete, and those types of seilers that get into

143
00:08:54,040 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: the capillaries minimize the depth of water seats in the concrete.

144
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: I talk about it a lot being used more in

145
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: the spring and summer so that the concrete morning dew,

146
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: the concrete dries faster because that moisture can't get into

147
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: the concrete as deep. Not familiar with it as a

148
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:25,319
Speaker 1: preventter of penetration that would keep it from forming ice. However,

149
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: a siliconized actually it's a tripolymer of silicone that would

150
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: be a penetrating siloxane sealer penetrates into the capillaries of

151
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 1: the concrete, minimizes water penetration. And I was talking about

152
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: preventing molds and mildews, but over the lifespan of that

153
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: on that concrete, which is about three years. It would

154
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: help with the moisture or the water build up also

155
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: on that surface. How that's applied or what it is

156
00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: exactly this time of the year. Not familiar with that product,

Speaker 5: I'm a little chilly, little chilly, I can honestly say,

209
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 5: mister Sullivan. And I've always and you know me, I

210
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 5: wear shorts during the wintertime. I love the winter. I

211
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 5: love the snow. But I've had enough.

212
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: Oh no, you put sweatpants on.

213
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 5: I have had enough. Let's get it out of here

214
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 5: and let's move on to the spring season.

215
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: You still had shorts on the jet.

216
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 5: No, it's matter fat today I didn't. And you know

217
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 5: why because you know when you drive down and there's

218
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 5: like a chance of like black ice.

219
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 1: Oh, you don't want I don't want.

220
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 5: To be standing on the side of the expressway with

221
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 5: my shorts on.

222
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: Man.

223
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 5: And I used to carry a pair of sweatpants in

224
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 5: the in the truck with me just in case, but

225
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 5: I quit doing that.

226
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: So, you know, got a question a lot and I

227
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 1: heard you talking about it, and I was just catching

228
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: pieces of it as I was doing a little my

229
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: show prep. You were talking with Scott, your co host, Yes,

230
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: and you were talking about boxwoods and I know a

231
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: lot of people that have had not great success with it.

232
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: And you were talking about, you know, trying to find

233
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: a plant that kind of looks like but can you

234
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: kind of walk us through that? Because I talked to

235
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: a lot of people also were the frustration level of

236
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: planning boxwoods maybe two and three times as a foundation

237
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: planning and not having success, and they're going like, what

238
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 1: should I do? Well?

239
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 5: You know, box would kind of got a you know,

240
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 5: there's there's a couple of insects's always bothered him. It's

241
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 5: no big deal, you can get right. And we had

242
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 5: that situation three or four years ago. We had that

243
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 5: cold snap and really did a number on box What

244
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 5: in other evergreens as well in boxwood, there's a lot

245
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 5: of them in the landscape, so we noticed it a

246
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 5: lot on the boxwood. Well, now all of a sudden,

247
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 5: we've got an insect that's coming along, came out of

248
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 5: Europe that is just devastating. When they come into an area,

249
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 5: they just do a number on boxwood. And so you

250
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 5: put all that together and people are like, I've always

251
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 5: liked boxwood because they grow anywhere and everywhere. They truly

252
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 5: are deer resistant. That's one plant that truly is. You know,

253
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 5: you can shape them any a shape or form, like

254
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 5: you know you used to do your Sullivan number letters

255
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 5: in front of your house and your boxwood. Of course

256
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 5: you could do all that stuff with them. They're so

257
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 5: you know, that's just the way the plant is. Well,

258
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 5: now all of a sudden, these things come along where

259
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 5: it's it literally is wiping them out. And so now

260
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 5: what is a substitute to have that same look, Well,

261
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 5: there isn't besides Japanese view that's the closest thing you

262
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 5: can get. There isn't any other boxwood like plant out there.

263
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 5: Japanese hollies maybe, But then you look at spy ree

264
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 5: as they lose their leaves in the winter time. You

265
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 5: look at some of the globearbvie. They don't stay like

266
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 5: you can't shear them like box would. So you know,

267
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 5: it's it's a tough one. So right now they're doing

268
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 5: a lot of research.

269
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to say, somebody's working on that.

270
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 5: To come up with the new genetics on box wood

271
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 5: that's resistant to these some of these issues. So it's

272
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 5: just out there's not going away. It will for maybe

273
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 5: a little while, yeah, but it'll be back there. They're

274
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 5: working on plan.

275
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: I personally had given up on them, and and some

276
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: of it was my fault anyway, because when they were

277
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: planned it was and then a hot summer and probably

278
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: didn't keep enough moisture in the ground. That was some

279
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: of it. And then the cold snap, well that did

280
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: the newer plannings, not only last year. I said, that's it. Yeah,

281
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: and I got some Japanese shoes and planting them the

282
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: same way, kind of took care of them the same way,

283
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: and they look great.

284
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, they do. It's a great you know again, they

285
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 5: were always the staple in the landscape. Everybody got kind

286
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 5: of tired of me, and it became deer candy in

287
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 5: some areas, and then box would kind of stepped in.

288
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 5: And there was a time when I first started this industry,

289
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 5: boxwood wasn't even available. It was so expensive. Nobody could.

290
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 5: You couldn't find a planet.

291
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: Well, they still aren't that cheese.

292
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 5: Still aren't that cheap, but they're growing today. We can

293
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 5: produce them a lot faster, more varieties, a lot more

294
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 5: people growing them in nursery, so they're not as expensive

295
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 5: as they used to be, but in comparison to other plants.

296
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 5: But you know, so taxes was Japanese. You was the staple.

297
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 4: Uh.

298
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 5: And you know what's interesting, You aren't allowed to plant

299
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 5: Japanese use in some of the Western states because deer

300
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 5: who feed on them at elk and moose are toxic

301
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 5: to them in those states.

302
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 1: But were developed in the Midwest, were they.

303
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 5: Not, well Japanese you yeah, so not Japanese you not here,

304
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 5: So those those varieties not There is a native taxes

305
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 5: that grows on the west West coast and they actually

306
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,479
Speaker 5: look at that for medicinal purposes and other things. But

307
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 5: these particular selections can actually be toxic to the deer

308
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 5: on the west side of the United States, not the east.

309
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 5: That's kredit crazy.

310
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's regional. It's regional. You had a conversation

311
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 1: going on about bees, yes, And I had seen a

312
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 1: news story which was kind of frightening. It was with

313
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 1: agriculture out west and how many bees they've lost and

314
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: last year and now this year, and they were talking about,

315
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: you know, pollinators like you talk about all the time.

316
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 1: Is this gotten too a crisis standpoint or was this

317
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: a little.

318
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 5: Bit of last year that was just last year's when

319
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 5: they had the big one. It was like over a

320
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 5: million of these were lost and they were the bees

321
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 5: that be you know that folks, folks in Iowa places

322
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,959
Speaker 5: like that are raising to bring to California. Those are

323
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 5: all brought in and brought to California for the almond

324
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 5: trees and things like that. Come to find out they

325
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,199
Speaker 5: went to bring them out, come to find out they

326
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 5: had been infested with a vera mite. Nobody had paid

327
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 5: attention to them. They lost all of those. Well, how

328
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 5: do you recoup millions of bees that you've lost? You

329
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 5: know that takes a couple of years to bring that

330
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 5: population back up. You have a natural loss anyway over

331
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 5: the winter time, so it's gonna take a few years

332
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 5: to bring those populations back up again. But those bees,

333
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 5: basically for all of those are brought in on semis

334
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 5: and then taken back to the East side of the

335
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:16,159

388
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 6: the show. Thank you, You're welcome. I've got a tile

389
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 6: floor that I found about fifteen years ago, and it's

390
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 6: an off white color. Over that time, drop iron pains

391
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 6: on it, hammers, wrenches, et cetera. And I've got chips

392
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 6: underneath the off like color. It's dark brown, so it

393
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 6: looks like I have food stains around the house. And

394
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 6: I'm wondering if there's a type of filler that I

395
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 6: can put in with a putty knife to you know,

396
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 6: fill in the hole. I'm almost to the point of

397
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 6: just bringing a piece of tile down to Low's or

398
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 6: home depot and getting a paint that matches the color.

399
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 6: But that's not going to fill in the dent. The

400
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 6: substrate is a slab. I'm on concrete anything you recommend.

401
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: So is this a like porcelain tile, is that what

402
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 1: it is? Or ceramic tile something like that.

403
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 6: Well, I reeve I've got the porcelain tile. I put

404
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 6: it down with a like a rubbery type of substance,

405
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 6: whereas in my bathroom I did the tile and that

406
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 6: was like a concrete based which I like that better.

407
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 6: So it's on a rubbery I don't know what you

408
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 6: call it. You know, well it comes in a tub

409
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 6: and you put it on with the you know, the

410
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 6: tool that makes like swirls, you know, and then you

411
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 6: put down the I don't like that. I use the

412
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 6: concrete based or similar to concrete in my bathroom, which

413
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 6: is going to lead me to my follow up question.

414
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 6: But I'm trying to a is there a product that.

415
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: I think I was just kind of thinking of exactly

416
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 1: what's going to work best? And there is different non

417
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 1: sementatious cement fillers or patchers. They usually come in a gallon,

418
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: which you don't need now. One of them is called

419
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: rock patch. That would be one option. It's more of

420
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 1: an acrylic resin type patcher. It's not sementatious, and that

421
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 1: would be good. However, when you first when you first

422
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 1: brought it up, I was kind of thinking, you know,

423
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: what would really work there? Good would be like an

424
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: epoxy in a POxy patch, and I'm not talking to

425
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: stuff that comes out of a tube or anything like that.

426
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: They have. There's one called PC seven. There's also I

427
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: think Duro makes a a resin and a hardener epoxy putty.

428
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 1: It's like a ribbon, so it's it's it's thick. You

429
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: cut equal amounts, mix it with a toothpick, and just

430
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 1: kind of move it in there, you know, and use

431
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: it as a patch. You can smooth it out. The

432
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: issue with that is you're gonna have to really tape

433
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: around that area that you're gonna patch because it's kind

434
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: of sticky and gooey. You know it's not, but it's thick.

435
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: It would do a great job, and you know, there'd

436
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: be a little preparation of course of cleaning the area.

437
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 1: Probably just use like an alcohol or acetone to clean

438
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: that and maybe a little piece of like a sanding

439
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 1: sponge of a medium grid, maybe even a fine grid.

440
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: Sometimes you can get a fine on one side, medium

441
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: on the other and just kind of rough that up

442
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: and then mix the epoxy. And I don't think you're

443
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,439
Speaker 1: going to I think that's going to function as a filler,

444
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: not as a as a matching the tile color. Also,

445
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: and then really after you patch that, you might even

446
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 1: have to go back and work on smoothing it, maybe

447
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: even sanding it, or you're gonna have to make sure

448
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: you get it nice and smooth. That's what I'm saying.

449
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 1: Maybe one of those little utility a little bigger than

450
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: a dremal multipurpose tool is usually what it's called. It

451
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 1: get little standing attachments. You might be able to smooth

452
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: it with that, and well, then you're gonna get into

453
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: doing touch up paint, and you know, maybe going to

454
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: a floor store like a Florida Tile they may have

455
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: some grout touch up paint that matches. That would be

456
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: a that would be a good place to start. Rather

457
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,919
Speaker 1: than just going and trying to get a quart of

458
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 1: paint matched and not have it be that durable. I

459
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: think I'd try to look for a grout touch up

460
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 1: or something along those lines.

461
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, that that definitely sounds helpful, because not only

462
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 6: do I want to fill in the chip, you know,

463
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 6: to make it level with the rest of the floor,

464
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 6: but I do want to match or be very very

465
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 6: close because the brown on the off white is very obvious.

466
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 6: None of the chips are bigger than a dime, but

467
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 6: they're there, and you know you can't mop them up.

468
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: So I'm not trying to burst your bubble. I'm just

469
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: telling you it's gonna be tough. The filling. You know,

470
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 1: if they're that small, the filler might even be a

471
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: little challenging. But I think you can get it filled,

472
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 1: and I think you can get it lying smooth. Okay,

473
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,479
Speaker 1: it might take a little work, and again taping around

474
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: that divit is going to be important. The difficult part,

475
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 1: and it's it always seems so easy, is to match

476
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: the tile. But there's two hundred flavors of white. I mean,

477
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: it's it's just so difficult. And you know, if you're

478
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: going to try it, what I would do is if

479
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: you got a little ding or a dent someplace that's

480
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: inconspicuous that you know, maybe even got to look for

481
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 1: it now and do it there and use that kind

482
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: of as your test panel, because boy, just even just

483
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: a little different sheen's gonna show up. There's you know,

484
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: matt finishes, there's you know, eggshell finishes, there's semiglasses, there's

485
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: you know, the degrees percentage of degrees. I I just

486
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: think it's going to be really really hard to match

487
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: it exact. And if it's in the middle a traffic pattern,

488
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: you're still gonna see it. It may not be as

489
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: noticeable or it may highlight.

490
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 6: It well, it's got to be better than a dark brown.

491
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I agree. That's why I said, if you're

492
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: gonna give it a try, try to find an out

493
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: of the area place that you know, you can kind

494
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: of work on it. And if it's a real small thing,

495
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: I'm even thinking of almost like a liquid epoxy glue

496
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: rather than the putting type that I was talking about.

497
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: I mean, if it's that kind of small, maybe just

498
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: a clear epoxy glue that you could put in with

499
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: like almost like you know, stir it up with a

500
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: toothpick and dab it into that area. Let it. You know,

501
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 1: they don't get the fast dry, It'll seek its own levels,

502
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: so it'll kind of smooth itself out, and then you

503
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: can go on the quest of you know, trying to

504
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,239
Speaker 1: get a grout paint or something something to just you know,

505
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: hide that.

506
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 6: Okay, those I've been taking notes, and those are things

507
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 6: I'm going to look into. And like, I think we

508
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 6: I have the leftover tile, so whatever the color or

509
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 6: number it is, maybe it would be easier to match.

510
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 6: But then I've got a second question. I also refinished

511
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 6: my bathroom floor with tile I can't remember which is which.

512
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 6: The kitchen is porcelain or ceramic, and the bathroom is

513
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 6: the opposite, is a.

514
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 1: Little more slip resistant, but they use them in both areas.

515
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 6: To be honest with you, Well, you're leading up to

516
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 6: another one of my questions. But in the bathroom, I

517
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 6: don't know. Somebody told me don't put down a ceiling

518
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 6: on it. Well I did, and it's worked beautiful that

519
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 6: the grout does not stain, it's not slippery. I don't know.

520
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 6: I can't remember what product I use. This is ten

521
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 6: years ago. But my kitchen floor, the one with the chips,

522
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 6: I do want to clean all the grout. That's going

523
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 6: to be a big job, crawling around on my hands

524
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 6: and knees. But I want to clean that grout, fix

525
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 6: those holes, and then put a sealing on it. And

526
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 6: then I was looking at the roll of rock. I

527
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 6: called you about that last week. Uh, And I want

528
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 6: to know the order I should do. Obviously, I got

529
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 6: to clean the grout and clean the floors and fill

530
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 6: in the holes. But then should I put roller rock

531
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 6: on first or put the sealer on first? Because the

532
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 6: sealer works beautiful. The grout never changes.

533
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: Now, Well, the roller rock roller rock again is a coating, Okay,

534
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: so it's I'm not going to use the word paint,

535
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: but i am going to use the word paint. It's

536
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: kind of like a paint, but it's got some depth

537
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: to it. In other words, it's got some three D

538
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: look to it, and it's thick. So what you would

539
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 1: do is and you wouldn't have to knock yourself out

540
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 1: super cleaning the grout because this is a coating that's colored. Okay,

541
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: so you're gonna cover all that up. Now, roller Rock

542
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,959
Speaker 1: with a company that makes roller rock makes a seiler also,

543
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: so you know, if you're talking about the true roller rock,

544
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: I would get it clean, I would get it smooth,

545
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 1: and then I would put the roller rock on two

546
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: coats and then a clear ceiler.

547
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 6: Okay, the seiler would go on after the roller rock.

548
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, it's sealing the roller rocky the tiles already

549
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: and the ground's already been sealed by the pigment and

550
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 1: coating of roller rock.

551
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 6: Okay. The uh, the fact that it also comes tinted,

552
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 6: wouldn't that tend to where I make the repairs and

553
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 6: the chips tend to that would cover it? Sure, make

554
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 6: minimize it.

555
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, you're gonna cover all that you're gonna end

556
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: up with a uniform color. Go to dish coatings. It's

557
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: d ai ch Coatings dot com. Take a look at

558
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: some of those videos of application of the roller rock

559
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: and there's all also one called spreadstone, and then you

560
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: can put the seiler on top of that. And quite honestly,

561
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,879
Speaker 1: if you're going to go to that extent, I think

562
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: filling those divots is going to become very easy. And

563
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 1: I would go with an epoxy filler at that point,

564
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: and just you know, I mean you could use the

565
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: paste and just smooth it over if it gets on

566
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: a towel, who cares? You're covering all that with a

567
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 1: spreadstone or the roller rock. Spend and then the ceiler.

568
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,720
Speaker 1: Spend a little time at the dice Coatings dot com

569

602
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: in Louisville. We toured the factory, the innovation building where

603
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 1: they trained plumbers. We got to see the attention to

604
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 1: detail on every pump day manufacturer, and of course the

605
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: n behind it. Zalor's a four generation family owned company,

606
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,439
Speaker 1: and you can tell that people truly care. They care

607
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 1: about quality, and that's why so many plumbers recommend Zalor

608
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: and I do too. If you need a some pump,

609
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: grinder pump, you can't go wrong with a Zalar pump.

00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: we all have our issues, maybe caused by weather or

613
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,720
Speaker 1: we just have some problems that we're trying to solve,

614
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: like the tile. And I did want to mention one

615
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,920
Speaker 1: other thing as I was kind of thinking about because

616
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 1: we kind of really change gears or where we were

617
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: going on that floor issue. I was even thinking when

618
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 1: he was talking about it might be a good idea

619
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 1: just to cover it with some roller rock. But if

620
00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 1: you were going to do that without bring the surface,

621
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: there is a tile grout patch that comes in a

622
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: bottle that would be the color of the grout, and

623
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how close that is the color of

624
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,359
Speaker 1: the tile. That could be an option, but if you're

625
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: going to cover it, I'd stay with the epoxy. I

626
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: think your adhesion is going to be better and certainly

627
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: going to get to you get you where you want

628
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 1: to go with that particular project. All right, Several people

629
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: were trying to call in during a breakway a little

630
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 1: technical issue, and if you want to call back, please do.

631
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: It's eight hundred love wireless technology until it stops working.

632
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 1: There you go eight hundred eight two three A two

633
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:42,359
Speaker 1: five five, Nick, Welcome, Thanks for holding Hi, Gary, I.

634
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 7: Got a question here on the the icicles that are

635
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 7: hanging in front of the gutters. Are you supposed to

636
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 7: put insulation in the eaves or no insulation in the eaves?

637
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,240
Speaker 7: Now there's uh, there's ice guard on the on the roof.

638
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 1: So on the eaves itself, are there is there a

639
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: ventilation screen? There?

640
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 7: There is some ventilation, but I don't think the hole

641
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:09,359
Speaker 7: is big enough.

642
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 1: Okay, which might be why you have the icicles. Okay,

643
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: So to answer your question, no, there should not be

644
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: insulation on those eves. And then to add a caveat

645
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 1: here is there is a formulation or a formula on

646
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:35,240
Speaker 1: how much air you're going to bring in through the soffits,

647
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: because that's what you're doing, that's your intake air. So

648
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 1: let's say in the summertime it's ninety degrees outside that

649
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: attic's one hundred and forty one hundred and thirty, so

650
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: it's hotter in the attic. It's got a ridge vent

651
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: I think, and so it works like a chimney. You

652
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 1: bring the cooler air even though it's ninety degrees, it's

653
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: cooler than one hundred and thirty, and it's pushing the

654
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: hot air out. So we gotta have a good balance

655
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:05,399
Speaker 1: of air coming in to evacuate the hot air through

656
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:05,920
Speaker 1: the top.

657
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 7: So let me put the siding in. I wanted them

658
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 7: to make the sapage holes bigger, but they were telling

659
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 7: me that was enough. And they're just like a a

660
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 7: round circle like the like an inch drill.

661
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 1: Bit. Yeah, they didn't want to do it. They didn't

662
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 1: want to do it. They have no idea that was

663
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: enough right now?

664
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 7: I didn't think it was enough.

665
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, they have no idea. So the formula is,

666
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:35,279
Speaker 1: you got a ridge vent on there, correct? Correct? Okay, So,

667
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,800
Speaker 1: and it's kind of a complicated formula. It sounds real simple,

668
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: but it's complicated. For every three hundred square feet a

669
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: footprint of the house, you have one square foot of

670
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: ventilation that is uninterrupted, which means those little fins that

671
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: are on those circles, that's interrupting almost half of it.

672
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 1: And then the rich vent has a filler.

673
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 7: In snow on the roof. The snow is up on

674
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 7: the ridge vent, the snow is starting, the snow is

675
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 7: melting up there on the ridge vent. Do that means

676
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 7: I'm getting enough air through there? Now?

677
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: Well, it means you're getting some air through there. I

678
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 1: don't know if you're getting enough. Somebody's got to do

679
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: the calculation. So it's for three hundred square feet, it's

680
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 1: one square foot of uninterrupted ventilation split fifty to fifty

681
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:30,320
Speaker 1: bottom and top. That's the formula. Okay, somebody's got.

682
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,280
Speaker 7: The butsulation in there at all.

683
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 1: That's correct because insulation there is actually covering your ventilation.

684
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 1: So if the insulation is all in the soffet and

685
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: you got a hole and then you got a little

686
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 1: tin cup in there with fins on it to bring

687
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 1: the air in, if there's insulation on top of that,

688
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 1: you're not You're not getting anything.

689
00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 7: Right, I got you? Okay, very good, all.

690
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: Right, thank you very much, quite welcome. Thank you, Nick,

691
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,839
Speaker 1: appreciate it. And uh, that's a good thing. We talk

692
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: a lot about checking that periodically, but it's never a

693
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: concern until we have that need. I get that. I'm

694
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 1: just like you are. But I've seen soft events that

695
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:15,879
Speaker 1: people have painted over them, which is terrible. You get

696
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:20,439
Speaker 1: no ventilation then, right, Spiders that have gotten in there,

697
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,760
Speaker 1: and you know, webs that are clogging up the little

698
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 1: fine screen behind those little fins. I mean, there's somebody

699
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: doesn't put any baffles up and they've insulated right over it,

700
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: and then you could have the perfect system, but it

701
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 1: isn't working because you're not bringing in any of the

702
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 1: air at all. So yep, all right, so we solve

703
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 1: that problem. All right, we got Joe Ann and Bill

704
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,279
Speaker 1: and Ken and Mark sit tight. We'll get you on

705
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: the other side of the hour. And one of my

706
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 1: favorite projects if you're into removing coatings, smart strip in

707
00:43:55,520 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: Smart Strip Advanced. It's by demand global wonderful, wonderful, environmentally

708
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: friendly stripper. You can use it inside on probably ninety

709
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 1: percent of different codings and paints. If you want to

710
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 1: get a test kit, DuMond has that and uh you know,

711
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:15,920
Speaker 1: like if there's lead paint or something like that, you

712
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,919
Speaker 1: probably need a different stripper. From Demand. You can get

713
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 1: the disc the test kit also, So I want to

714
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 1: pess that along to you. That's a good dip and
