Gounads posted:Is a builder giving a 15 year warranty a big deal, or just something they say? It's worth however much use you can get out of the paper it's printed on as toilet paper unless this builder has been in business as this legal entity for upwards of 30 years. Often what happens is that you'll have a warranty issued and then the builder dissolves the LLC or S/C Corp (whatever they incorporated the business as) and reincorporates as a "new" company with a similar (but legally distinct) name which, of course, means any warranties issued by the original company are no longer enforceable.

Gounads posted:ok, so here's some paranoid conspiracy thinking, I know it sounds crazy. You'd be surprised at the lengths people will go to to be dicks. Do the construction cameras have night vision? Something my in-laws did at their cabin when they were having issues with some of the year-round neighbors "borrowing" things like canoes or whatever was to set up a couple game cameras. Caught one of them red handed. Edit: consider posting no trespassing signs at the same time and consult a lawyer about your state's adverse possession laws and what you need to do to prevent it. Our neighbors' driveway overlaps our property line by a good 3' and it's pretty much impossible for them to get to their garage door without that. When we bought our house, we had the seller get a signed contract with the owner of the neighboring property that states, in effect, "we know it overlaps, we still own the property up to the property line, we can revoke access (i.e. by building a fence) at any time" that then got filed with our title.

Gounads posted:All good points. Counterpoint: my neighbors seeing my hairy rear end when I shower. Counter-counterpoint: that's what frosted glass and/or a higher window is for. But ultimately it's your house and you need to make decisions that you're comfortable with.

Boogalo posted:And then get a combination lock for your most used door because gently caress keys. I installed the flat keypad version of that on my door within a week of closing on our house and it's probably my favorite of the small upgrades I've done. It's unbelievably convenient to not have to think about needing a house key and if we need to have someone come by to take care of our cats when we go out of town or whatever, I can just issue them a temporary code.

Manwich posted:What's the manufacturer and model of that shower head? My wife loves those kinds of shower heads, and we've only found Delta that made one like that. Your pictured showerhead looks much better. It looks like the one I installed in our shower. It is a Delta. It's also loving awesome. It has multiple settings for either one or both the outer ring and the handheld part and has a "pause" function that drops the stream to a trickle which my wife loves for when she's shaving her legs. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Delta-In2Ition-174-Chrome-WaterSense-Showerhead-with-Hand-Shower/50297997
