Do you know how to tackle clogged pipes? On this week’s show we discussed how to keep those pipes flowin’ free. Join us as we talk backed-up toilets, sinks, bathtubs, and the dreaded main sewer line. Don’t let your first thought be calling the plumber. Do it yourself! You can, man.

We also welcomed a guest on the show – our good friend Matt. He recently dealt with a major main sewer line backup and tells us all about it. The above image is the powered snake from Harbor Freight Tools that Tim let Matt borrow.

We’re rounding out our New House Know-How series this week with special guest, James.  He’s a good buddy of ours and new homeowner.  Listen in as we discuss his renovation woes and triumphs.  James is a You can, man. success story with his freshly acquired DIY skills.  We talk everything from load-bearing walls to bacterial meningitis.  It’s a doozy.

Dave and Tim helped James with his load-bearing walls project at his new house. The image above is James just after we owned those two walls and had removed the temp walls. You can, man!

On this week’s show we continued our New House Know-How series discussing tasks you should accomplish after you move into your new house. A few of these are no-brainers, but some are things you may not have thought about doing. In keeping with our, “What one man can do, you can do as well” motto, you’ll find that most of the tasks on the checklist are things you can totally take care of yourself. Example: meeting your neighbors. That’d just be weird if you hired someone to do that.
