Need plumber & electrician

This is my first time posting, which may seem questionable to some...but i have been following this message board for some time now.

my partner in life is a licensed plumber in the state of oregon, comes from a family of plumbers going back a few generations, and is the kind of serviceman who explains to the customer exactly what the problem is, what may have caused it, and all of the options the person has for dealing with it (including cost of each) up front. he is very honorable, or i wouldn't have been interested in dating him at all ten years ago when we first met.

the only difficulty is that your friend has probably already obtained the services they need elsewhere, and that i don't think my mate specializes in sewer work, but repair of existing lines within the house. but, he may still be able to refer you.

If you friend still needs the info, please call [url=http://www.pacificplumbing.net] Plumber in Bellevue[/url] Plumbing and ask for "Joseph".



Hmm, have you tried acoustic tile?

After the 500th time reading someone complain about the clomping foot traffic noise of the tenants upstairs, and the 1000th response from a well-meaning someone else advising them to install acoustic tile, I've gotta post something that will hopefully get Googled for the next poor shnook who asks about it. I don't have an architectural acoustics degree but this is something I learned in the trenches, building recording studios.

There are two basic types of noise control: one that alters the acoustics inside a room (absorption) and one that contains that noise and keeps it from invading neighboring spaces (transmission). The respective technical approaches are about as similar as frying a hamburger and paper training a puppy. In other words, different.
