    I agree with these design tips, except flat paint on the walls . They will get dirty quickly . I prefer eggshell .

    As a Designer/Colourist with over 40 years experience, the comment you made that a ceiling should always be a different colour than the walls is incorrect. If there is no crown molding and the walls are a neutral colour, the ceiling looks better if painted the same as the walls. This gives more height to the ceiling because there is no colour line to draw attention to the two areas. If there is crown molding, I prefer the ceiling and crown molding to be painted the same colour. If you are colour saturating a room, then baseboards, walls, crown molding and ceiling should be painted the same colour or the ceiling a lighter version of the wall colour. In speaking of ceiling colours, I prefer to never use ceiling white. If you must paint the ceiling a different colour than the walls, paint the baseboards, door and window trim, and the ceiling the same colour, a soft white or very light griege. Also, please use a flat paint on the ceilings and walls. This absorbs the light and you see the colour rather than a reflection that is shiny. It also hides imperfections. The trim can be eggshell, semigloss, or gloss, depending on the contrast you would like. One more tip: please paint the vents the same colour as what is around them. These should not be left white. They look best if they blend in rather than standing out and highlighted by a contrasting colour. Hope this is helpful to all who are trying to decide on painting the interior of their homes.

    Your DIY plumbing demo demonstrated why most of us need to hire a licensed plumber :-) Thanks!
  • Top tip for painting over days same colour put paint tray and brush or roller in plastic bag tie off and put in refrigerator, next day pull out and you are good to go saves washout, time and paint.

    With regards to paint, you have to change the dollar from one to two because paint is through the roof, even at Home Depot and Blowes.

    Excellent video. I would add to the water shutoff - after shutoff, run the water from a downstairs faucet for a minute or two, to drain out what's in the pipes. And keep a small bucket handy.

    Wow, this is some high-quality content! I'm surprised you don't have that many viewers/subscribers... YET! Keep up the good work -- thanks!

    I had a little leak under my kitchen sink. I knew the pipes were old so I decided to get a whole new set up. Got the new set up, went in there to unscrew the pipe and it disintegrated in my hands.
  • Thank you! I’m always interested in DIY projects that I can do myself. Really appreciate your teaching skills so that I can get the right tools ( maximum importance to do the job correctly) and use them in the right way. 😊
  • What a great video with practical advice. New ideas vs. rehash of the usual advice one hears on this topic. 👍🏽👏🏽
  • @woowooone
