The My Vibe Thread

[YankeeRebel]

Good idea, I just don't want it to look like my garage floor. Landscapers crushed my driveway and I'm considering getting an attorney and suing them and my insurance company. I won't go into details but Needless to say, I'm pissed.

Google It or call some concrete guys.

It would look something like this

There are companies, concrete companies that can come in and create a faux field stone look, not slippery looks great. I would be hesitant to use any tile in wet areas. Again as we age we need to think about safety as much as we do appearance

Quite correct but you can get tile that is not slippery.

Tile in my bathrooms is murderous! Can't wait to replace it in 2 bathrooms - not mother in laws bathroom.....

Did you sign for any deliveries?
Do you have a contract with landscaper? Read the contract.
If no disclaimer in contract, you'd be better to settle with landscapers insurance company.
Attorney's will turn it into a 3 year court case.

Remember, you are not in NE anymore. Southern States are all "buyer beware" states.....

Note: that is (probably) a coating, not poured concrete.
If you start calling "concrete guys" in Florida, they'll say, "yes, we can do that"
Shop 1st. Find a specialist with experience in his product - not somebody just willing!

Note: The shine on the old tile must be ground off!

They admitted that it was their fault in writing. They sent a contractor who then tried to screw both of us by saying that a patch would be best after submitting an estimate to remove two sections of the driveway. Hell, I can do a patch and have a shitty looking driveway.

Research. Might try asking pool contractors.
There are a million guys in florida that do coatings!

Right now it's a very shinu coated broken tile that was very well done. The Lanai is screen in and I had everything slanted away when the landscaping and walkway were done. I thinking of a stone gray laminate tile. The stuff on there now is a tannish and bright red. Butt ugly.

1. Girl Scout Cookies - Yuck. A waste of time and money and I hate getting accosted every time I try to enter and exit a Lowes or Kroger, only to have them knock on my door right next to the No Soliciting sign in my neighborhood that has a huge No Soliciting sign at the entrance. a huge box with just a few cookies...
2. The Beatles - Meh. A few decent songs and A LOT of talent.
3. Hendrix - Same.
4. The Beach - Depends. I hate the sand, I love the water. I hate the views at the old people beaches and I love the views at others.
5. Reworked Modern Muscle Cars - WTF is wrong with you?
6. Micro Brews - I don't drink anymore. Yet.
7. Skinny Women - And fat women. Gotta hit the sweet spot.
8. Travel Abroad - Depends where.

5. A lot of them are wannabe muscle cars and Chrysler products. So my greater bias is Chrysler and silly exhausts trying to replecate a Hemi Cuda

My vibes got hit this morning.

Jimmy Haslam, owner of the Cleveland Browns and the Haslam Sports Group has just purchased 25% of the NBA Milwaukee Bucks.

25% for $3.5 Billion

Give me a f*ckin' break...............That puts the value of the Milwaukee Bucks around $12B.

Excuse me?? What are the Cowboys, Patriots and Yankees now worth?????
