A pretty strong trash/Garbage truck odor filled the air this morning when I came outside.  It's been doing that especially in the morning for several months intermittently.  I didn't notice it for over 2 years until recently. Anybody else notice it from Portola Springs area?  The smell usually...

It's been happening regularly that after about 10 pm, the air quality around Pavilion Park/Portola is fouled by a strong odor every week night.  It smells like asphalt.  Does anyone who lives around the north end of Pavilion Park or Portola Parkway notice the same thing?  Is there an asphalt...

How old is the house?  Maybe builder will help or pay if this was caused by construction issue?

I think it is adequate not to have the legs.  Easier to clean underneath.  Unless you are putting very heavy things, they are very sturdy. 

I'm ok with it.  But what are you guys thinking when you see my sn? ::)

They were not the cheapest, about average.  I was fooled by the sales person who appeared to be "professional" but totally irresponsible once contract was signed.  Maybe he thinks that his brother in law was the owner...

Did you do the 1/8" chips?  We had the same problem with sharp edges for the 1/8" chips and Premier Garage had to come back to fix it (only one time though).  Afterwards when we asked for a quotation for another house, the same lady gave a different price for 1/4" and 1/8" chips.  She said...

most HOA's require residents to park 2 cars in the garage for a 2 car garage and at least 2 cars for 3 car garage.  I see many people park on the street and use the garage as storage or work-out room.  Since I park in the garage and my third car on the street (before I purchased a single family...

I used tailored living for our garage cabinets and master closet and spent about $6,000 between the two.  very happy with the results

Yeah, didn't know about this website until my neighbor told me about it.  Looks like they are doing good business around here since there are lots of new constructions...That's why I finally decided to share my experience here and hope others don't go through the same thing.  I don't mind human...

I used the company and it worked well overall.  they did a great job in garage cabinets and master closet.  Epoxy ended up great but read my review that I copied from another website:  I got 8 cabinets in the garage, 3 car garage epoxy and master closet for $8350.  It may not be cheapest but I...

It's good have have umbrella for additional protection.  I think it's worth it, especially when you have properties that cannot be transferred out of your name easily as someone else mentioned.  Yes Safeco had me max out auto liability limit to $500,000 and with a 1M umbrella, you're covered...

It's hard to know where to start.  Let me just go by chronological order. It started fine with the salesperson Omar (brother in law of the owner).  He seemed to know what he was doing, a salesman.  Don't be fooled by Omar, that's where it ends with him.  The only time he called my wife on his...

We just purchased Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum HE washer/dryer.  Washer gets $250 rebate from the water company.  It works OK, not great the first time and we had to rewash a few items (still smell sweaty) but seems to be better now after several more uses.  Not sure if the load somehow did not...
