I have the Cox Internet Preferred "50 Mbps".  Did a test thru speedtest.net and getting only 30 Mbps.  So Cox probably shares bandwidth so when its busy, it is lower and when it is not busy, it is higher.  They are trying to increase my pricing by 50%.  They keep jacking up the price every 6...

Do ac routers generally have greater range than n routers? My n router has a range of 250 meters. But I have noticed no reception in some parts of the house. None of my devices are ac compatible so I won't benefit from the ac speeds.  But will ac routers have better than 250 meter range?

Dont they have some rule where after you cancel, u have to wait 60 days or something, if same last name.

So with a ps3. It doesnt matter that its behind a solid cabinet door, it will read? My only issue will be the dvr then. Is an IR blaster the same thing as a RF extender?

Nice floorplans.  Better than OH for sure.  I'm guessing they will start these in the low $2m.....

Can you see the seams where the crown moulding comes together after 16'?  Thats my biggest worry.

I think it is because the caulking will turn yellow.  Thats why they like to spray paint in place, after the moulding has been installed.

Direct TV has bad customer service.  Had so many problems with their dish breaking down and they always try to charge me to send a technician out.  Never paid, but a hassle to call it in to argue.  Plus they have a 2 year agreement. Cox always will increase your price after 6 months or a 1...

I will call him. My neighbors used woodstone moulding and they are most expensive. Some used CA Moulding which are cheaper.  Some used Millwork Craft which is middle.  Curious as to how OC Finishwood compares pricewise and quality wise. I got a flier for Woodwork Solutions in Mission Viejo  but...

Anyone have a contact who can mount tv can install RF extender?  Have components behind cabinets so need a RF extender so I dont have to open the cabinet doors everytime I want to turn on the DVR, PS3, etc

Hey everyone, getting close to finalizing our custom built in for living room.  We deciding not to go with glass and have wood panels.  Unfortunately, that poses a problem to turn on components (DVR, PS4, etc)  Don't want to have to open the doors every time we play a game or have to use the...

Bones, we are thinking of using Jefferson Rand also. Supposedly they do a lot of the portola springs homes with succulents and lush gardens.  Mind sharing price and lot size and what you did so we can know if we are in the ballpark? How did you decided on them over others?  Did you give Jo at...

Had neighbors who used DIY kits and cant compare to the sika brand that Premier Garage uses. Way more chips and cleaner lok.  But then again, it costs more too.  Do it right and have no regrets later on.

Yes it is the body of the cabinet. Everything but the raised panels. I believe the doors are the only thing that is wood. But would a 65 inch lcd tv with an extended mount hold on mdf or whatever they use for the back?

hi Guys, I am looking at some custom tv built ins.  There are so many different vendors out there with different prices.  I contacted a few and some use MDF for the interior while others use melamine.  My understanding is that melamine is used for kitchen and garage cabinet interiors and desks...

Hi Bones, I am looking at landscaping and read your post of them. A lot of TI members say KS is good.  Also Jo from Echo but dont know his work.  His pics seem kind of simple. Do you have any pics or details you can share about what you did?  May I ask how much you spent and the timeframe to...

How does Jo's designs compare to Jefferson Rand?  I head they do a lot of the nicer homes in Portola Springs but on on the high side >$50k.  Does Jo design the fireplace and bbq courtyards with lush trees that you see out there?

4 panels of 112" x 82" with 2 custom rods for about $4k. That sounds expensive doesn't it? I have never got custom drapes before but that soumds high.

Does anyone have recommendation for custom curtains and drapes? We interviewed Windows Decorators but they want close to $4k for 4 panels. We need over the standard 108" you find in stores.

Marty, did he paint on the spot or did he paint outside and then install? I am debating Millworkcraft who doesnt paint and California Moulding who has it prepainted. I am leaning. toward having it painted outside of the house. That way we dont have to live with painters taping up everything and...
