    Orange stains in shower and toilets becoming more apparent - not sure where to start

    Looking for ideas for finishing a rubber membrane rooftop deck

    So my wife and I purchased an updated but older farmhouse this past August, and we're gearing up for Springtime renovations. One of the first projects I'd like to tackle is finishing the deck that our master bedroom walks out to. The insurance company needs to see a railing there before we...
