    Tiling a floor, which part can be removed?

    What does this mean, it hardly makes sense. That one piece is DEFINITELY solid wood, why would you think it would be otherwise? ALL we need to know is WHICH part is the subfloor. Why does it seem like this question is being avoided.

    Replacing a window with a patio door, concerns?

    oh also, its a duplex, and this is a lower unit, so i guess more specifically my question was in regards to structural support. is there anything i need to be aware of or that i should check prior to this project? a temporary support? anything?

    Replacing a window with a patio door, concerns?

    are there any structural concerns i need to be aware of in replacing a window with a patio door? the window is currently a 60-inch window, so i would use a 60-inch patio door. the only cutting would be the exterior brick and interior wall below the window. i believe the height of the window...
