I have an idea for a forum. Everyone one this site lives in a house/dwelling, it is a common factor among us all I assume.

I am a contractor by trade, carpentry mostly but do excavation and other stuff as well. (Every thing from excavation to handing over the keys I do it all.)

Think of Home Depot and Lowes they are huge success chains based on home improvements / I personally give them about a 10% knowledge approval based on hiring any warm body person to stock shelves ( point being most free advice is worth what you paid for it..)

Why not have a forum for us in the trades to post threads as well as answer trade questions and save people some hassle.

feel free to pm me any related questions or needs of advice and hope to help in the future.

Voted yes. Seems like a great idea. I would definitely use the section to both offer and seek advice.

thanks for the vote and please anyone that votes list if your interested in the forum and why (i.e. home owner / trade worker / or just in need of advice)

This forum not only can benefit a home owner but as well as someone that rents an apartment and thinks there are issues or health hazards!![/B

THERE ARE ALOT OF "NORMAL LIVING SITUATIONS THAT ARE ILLEGAL" YOU AS A RENTER HAVE RIGHTS! IF YOU DON'T ASK THEN U WON'T KNOW... PLEASE ASK ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS IF U HAVE ANY IT MAY SAVE YOUR CHILD OR LOVED ONE FROM ASTHMA OR CANCEROUS DISEASE RELATED ISSUES.

THERE IS A HOME INSULATION THAT LOOKS LIKE SPARKLY POPCORN CURNELS PRODUCED BY HOMLITE I BELIEVE.. IT IS CANCEROUS IF IT IS IN YOU ATTIC/CRAWL SPACE YOU STORE SEASONAL DECORATIONS IN EVERY TIME U GET THEM OUT OR PUT THEM IN YOU EXPOSE YOUR FAMILY AND GUESTS TO CANCEROUS CONTAMINATES THAT ARE AIR BORN DISTRIBUTED LIKE A DIRTY BOMB... PROTECT THOSE U LOVE SUPPORT THIS FORUM SUGGESTION...

I HAVE OVER 15 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN THE TRADES AND INCREASING DAILY

It would certainly be useful information for me. In the meantime I know who to pester with all my questions.

I think this is a great idea for a subforum.

If we can have a forum dedicated to Health and Fitness, body building and stuff, this is definately a valid option aswell!!

Also, there's a program in the UK called Fake Britain which basically delves into the life of fakers, ripoffs and dodgy deals around the UK and very often there will be something to do with saving money in home improv, including guys installing FAKE electrical wiring which resulted in huge fires.

GG idea
