I need to replace my single pane windows before winter in my entire house (18- 20 windows, plus 3 sliding doors). Is Home Depot a good contractor for windows and installation?

It's a nice, boat shaped mahogany hardwood (not veneer) table. My office is moving and is purchasing new furniture, so I think I can get a good deal on this. It has two base panels (legs) on each end. Would this work in a large dining space?

I've heard nothing but horror stories about contractors. I'm remodeling my home and I'm willing to pay a little extra for a good one. Anyone know how I can find reviews, referrals or recommendations. I don't just want to pick one out of the phone book, but I havent seen anything good online yet either.

My friends just had a huge remodelling job done on their house. It took about 10 months, but the house has just now become habitable. This house is a second home, so not used that often, it has been closed up between visits but proper ventilation has been seen too.. When they came back to the house this time after a 3mnth absence, they found a ceramic jug that has some how become coated with what looks like graphite.. that's the best explanation.. also, above the windows on the rolling blind casings, there is the same powder. It can be wiped with the fingers and partially removed with the fingers, but still needs to be washed .. On the jug however, you have to scrub.. it almost looks like it has been painted on, the surface is also shiny, like it has been burnished.... Has anyone ever had this type of thing happen in a house?.. The builder is a complete idiot, so anything is possible.. Help.

I have a 103'' x 44'' room that I am looking at replacing the floor on. I would rather do vinyl, and cannot seem to find an estimate anywhere without calling a pro, and listening to the sales pitch. Can someone help?

I am wondering if I can save money using plywood as a subfloor for tile. It is new construction with a new floor of 3/4 inch compressed wood type of plywood. I have a lot of area to cover and thought I could limit the Hardiboard to the bathrooms and cheaper plywood for the rest. It is my home and I need it to last. Is it a bad idea? My contractor wants Hardiboard everywhere. Thanks for input!

HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY TO HAVE A PUZZLE BUILT AND FRAMED TO HANG ON YOUR WALL AS ART WORK? I FEEL THIS IS A NEAT AND ORIGINAL WAY TO HAVE ARTWORK OF FAMOUS ARTISTS WITHOUT THE HIGH PRICE.
