    New knobs and hinges

    OK, so I have re-done the cabinets and am looking to replace the hinges and add new knobs and/or pulls. Who should I look at? What about Emtek? Where can I go and see the product line? I don't like to buy over the internet since you can never really tell about the color. Any advise would be...

    Remodeling after slab leak

    OK, so now that the leak is repaired and the restoration has begun, what do I do next? I have mold abatement nearly done, but the walls, floors, baseboards and such all need to be redone. What do I do first? Walls, then floors and baseboards? That seems like the logical thing to do. I am...
