Keeping Your Home Clean When Remodeling

March 9, 2010

What’s the thickest dust you’ve ever seen? I guess I should narrow down the circumstances by specifying that I’m talking about dust in the house, on your stuff. No matter how great your answer, I bet I’ve seen thicker! I’ve seen some dust.
Maybe dust isn’t even the right word. What is [...]

March 7, 2010

I saw a post today at Classicly Amber that has some great inspiration for home offices.

March 1, 2010

Skip to the bottom for goofy video outtakes.
Every once in awhile I write a post that bugs me. I did that last night. Actually, it was only a few hours ago. I woke up at 3:30 in the morning thinking about it! So I decided to just change it. It’s not yet [...]

Coming Soon on RemodelingGuy.net

February 21, 2010

My title makes me want to go to the movies.
I have a hard time sometimes deciding whether or not this is an “all business, news and information blog” or if I can actually just goof around sometimes. So, in true form, I’ll just do both!
Neither of the previous “blogagraphs” (paragraphs are different on blogs) [...]

Hey… Big News! I’m part of “the team” over at The Inspired Room! Melissa, who has one of the most awsomest design blogs around, in a moment of weakness and lapse in judgment, invited me to contribute to her blog from time-to-time. How could I refuse?

Have I Seen That Post Before?

December 2, 2009

If the post above seems familiar, it’s because you might have seen it before at RG:Select. Longtime readers will remember that I tried having four “specialty” blogs in addition to the main blog.
