There aren't any standard dimensions for a 1.5 car garage, but a one-car garage is less than 300 square feet. A two-car garage is usually just over 600 square feet, so a 1.5 car garage would be somewhere in between the two measurements.

If you are re-grouting tile, all the old grout must be out, and the area free of dirt and grime. Before you begin you need to make sure of the following. * What is your grout spacing? If it is less than 1/8" you must use non sanded grout. 1/8" or large must use sanded grout. This is something to not be guessed at. Older style 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" usually need non sanded, but today grout spaces on the wall have become larger. If you use the wrong grout, you will be reducing this in short order. * You have no loose tile. Grouting over them will not bond them better to the wall. By leaving them, your grout lines will crack and allow water to make its way back behind the wall. * You have all of your supplies on hand and ready You will need the following supplies * Grout, enough to complete the entire job. * 2 tile sponges * 3 buckets at least 2 1/2 gallons * Good quality grout float - this is a rubber rectangle with a wood handle, used to spread the grout. * Matching silicone caulk * A clean lint free towel or rag * Sealer (not used the day of install!!) When looking for grout, make sure it is latex fortified. Epoxy grouts are great too, but are often hard for a do-it-yourselfer to work with. Grout comes in much larger bags then most people could work within the window it needs to be applied once mixed. Just like a cake recipe you need to measure carefully. Break the bag into four parts along with the mixing instructions. It is best to not "eyeball it" if you want a consistent color. Adding to much or to little water can leave the color off from the other mixed batches. The final mixture it should be about mashed potatoes consistency. Make sure all the thin set is off the face of the tile. Work in a 4'x4' area to start. Using your grout float start at the top of the wall. You want to go diagonal to the grout spacing. This will prevent your float from hitting the joints and marring the lines. Don't allow the grout to sit on the face of the tile longer then 20 minutes before you start wiping. Fill both of the remaining buckets with clean water. Have separate sponges for each bucket. The first water bucket will be for the first few wipes and the second for the remaining final clean up. Using your first sponge start at the top and wipe straight down without stopping. At the bottom of your grouted tile, move your sponge over flip it over and wipe up. Rinse sponge. Continue until your 4 foot area is wiped completely. With the second sponge and repeat the same process. This prevents you from spreading the grout all over the tile and actually takes off more. You want to continue this process until the tile is completely clean. You can at the end use a clean rag careful not to touch the wet grout. The tile is not clean enough if you can still see a film on the tile. This will dry on the face of the tile and leave it looking cloudy and dull. Once all the tile are completely grouted, take your silicone caulk and caulk all the inside corners and where the tile meets the floor, tub, or counter. The grout will need to dry for at least 3 days. Twice a day spray the grout with a water bottle. This helps the grout to dry evenly On the 4th day you can take your sealer. Follow the instructions on your product because sealers are applied differently. Most need to be applied 2 or 3 times. Allow this to dry over night and your job is complete. The best cleaner for ceramic and porcelain tile is vinegar and water. A half and half mixture will clean the toughest stains. Never use it on natural stone.

Most common height 30".

A canopy bed, or four poster, is basically just a bed with a large frame around it. From the frame you can hang curtains or drapes of any kind, or perhaps mosquito netting if the climate is suitable.

* Start with a basic bed, double size, at least, and preferably with a wooden leg at each corner, so you can easily attach the uprights. * Decide on the height and buy suitable lengths of wood. * Don't make it too heavy, but strong enough to support your drapes.

* Buy enough to include supporting angled pieces at the top corners. * Buy simple angle brackets to join the wood at the top. * Drill and screw it all together.

* Handle it very carefully, as it will be fairly flimsy till you have it attached to the bed legs. * Drill and screw the uprights onto the bed legs. It is best to have the uprights touching the floor. * Hang your curtains or netting just as you would attach curtains to a window.

Chalkboard paint is fairly easy to make. It takes 1 part non sanded grout to 8 parts paint. Non sanded grout is available at any home improvement store.

oak is better

I quite agree with above. Oak will blend better with other furniture of mixed woods ... Cherry seems (at least to me) to be a very dark wood that blends better with darker finishes. Got an antique oak chair that still looks great and pleasant to sit in.

A hollow metal door is constructed of two face sheets of cold rolled steel sandwiching a core material. Typical core materials are polystyrene, cardboard honeycomb, fiberboard or urethane. A wood door can be solid wood stiles, rails and panels or two laminate sheets on a mdf core. Hollow metal doors are usually cheaper, but also usually only available in flush (a smooth slab). It was want a typical stile and rail door you should opt for wood.

It is the brown spikes poking up through the concrete columns of concrete framed buildings or road bridges that you can see mid-construction.

To recover a barrel chair, you typically need about 2 to 3 yards of fabric, depending on the chair's size and the pattern of the fabric. It's important to consider the width of the fabric, as wider materials may require less yardage. Additionally, if the chair has a more complex design or if you plan to add padding, you might need extra fabric. Always check the specific chair dimensions and consult a professional if unsure.

You can in areas like a kitchen back splash. Just use a mastic glue. Don't tile over drywall in areas prone to high moisture, such as a shower, tub or floors.

Black works great as a contrast to the orange, but it depends on how bright the color is.

Approx. 21". If there is space for it, consider the size of a drop down ladder unit, which is more useful than an opening that requires a ladder.

I had a futon bed frame (one that does not fold up). The futon mattress wore out and I wanted something better for my back. I bought a queen size mattress (no box spring) and have been using it like that for two years. It works great and no one knows the difference.
