Zoom in on the pic, Sheldar.
That is copper and it IS green, not black.
Good stuff. Costs more but lasts almost forever.

Amazing! We think alike. I was thinking the same exact 2 choices
for a fix a few hours ago.

I had also noticed those corners. Maybe a rounded piece of brick
on each end and then just put a potted plant on each side....and
I even thought...or a statue of some sort. But not a yard gnome!

I'm getting an outdoor Ganesha statue about 2-3 feet high for a corner of the back deck and we're gonna make an International Student shrine in a corner of the Pink and Purple deck!! (has yet to be painted!) Maybe I'll shop Macro Sun Imports or elsewhere for something cool and appropriate for an International Student house! I want ALL to feel welcome in this house, I have a business interest dog in this hunt!

Thanks for the ideas! No, no garden gnomes! Too stupid capitalist!!

FIRST...it turns green, which you can see, then it darken to an oaky black.

How the **** do YOU know???

Understand - no proof of jacking has been tendered nor is there any
evidence in the pics we have seen.

Stop building straw men, it's petty and beneath you.

The vile way you stalked poor Omelet and chased her off the usenet makes

Won't ever be jacking John's house. I'm pretty sure he told us
that he has a full basement there.

I'm sorry but that is not even remotely true.

At some point one has to cohere with reality, and Bwuthie has used you
(for years) as his safe harbor here.

Facts are facts.

I'm certain you must remember how swiftly he sucked back up to you after
your minor falling out a couple of weeks ago.

I would hope I neeedn't revive and repost the actual messages to prove
my point, but....

That doesn't mean it can't be mud jacked.


http://concretejack.com/mud-jacking/...nt-mudjacking/

How Basement Mudjacking Works
Basement mudjacking used to lift settled basement floor.
Settled basement floor; the red line is the slabs original position.

Basement mudjacking is relatively straightforward. The mudjacking crew
drills holes through the basement floor. Concrete Jack uses 1 or 1-5/8€³
holes, depending on how much material needs to be pumped. Other
mudjacking contractors may use slightly larger holes. After a few holes
are drilled, the mudjacking crew mixes up a batch of grout. Mudjacking
grout varies a lot geographically. Concrete Jacks basement mudjacking
crews use cement-stabilized lime grout.

After its thoroughly mixed, the grout is pumped through the holes,
below the slab. The grout spreads out to fill any voids under the
basement floor. Once all the voids are filled, any additional material
pumped under the slab starts to push the slab back up. The mudjacking
crew moves the injection nozzle from hole to hole to slowly work the
slab back into position.

A good definition of Bruce:


"Characters can be Jerkasses in many ways - some may be polite, intelligent,
charming, handsome and/or brave, but still give off a basic air of snobby,
sneering, self-centered prickery that makes them such a nasty little punk
that
you wonder why nobody's beat the crap out of them, shanked them or busted a
cap
in their skull yet. Others are more obvious assholes who may be crass,
sleazy,
or otherwise repulsive. Either way, it's usually their status on the team of
"good guy" that results in them never being called out on it. After all, if
they
were an asshole on team "bad guy", they'd just be another villain."

He can block off those openings with glass blocks filled with
plastic flowers. Without weep holes those planters won't last too
long. Actually that house would look a lot better without those
planters, they are way out of proportion and make the house look a lot
smaller than it is. I still think it would have been better to close
off the openings in front of the deck with decortive wood lath and
then plant some attractive evergreen shrubs. Only an idiot who has
never owned a house would have permanently blocked off access with a
brick wall and also give up all that extra storage space. An
experienced homeowner would find a lot of valuable use for that
exterior storage in the front of the property, saves having to lug say
ladders, hoses, brooms, and whatever gardening tools one uses to
maintain the front... I don't even see a hose bib in front... no
electric outlet either.

I'm not nasty. But if you already call me downright nasty, you must
really hate the Boner troll. Oh no wait, that's your buddy. Amazing
how you juggle those double standards.

Good citation on Mini- their mass customization on color and almost
everything else is seemingly endless!

Now Bwuthie you must be careful here, one or two quasi-cross exchanges
simply must be (and always are) followed by one big old suckup!

Else you may lose safe harbor...
