Hey mike,

  I was watching your show on the mold in the cold cellar....

now the reason this episode, caught my attention is because

my cold cellar was insulated with vapor barrier, pink insulation and drywall.....now there is some mold coming thru the wall in the cold cellar.....now my question is?  what is the best way to insulate a cold cellar......or should we even insulate the cellar......why is the mold building up in the cold cellar?

if you please reply to via email:  jr_mh_10@hotmail.com

                        thanks

Why would the home owner tear down the mold infested drywall himself. He just spread the spores through out the entire home. Leave it alone and call in the pros.

Hi Mike,

I'm a big fan of your show I watch you all  the time.

Hi Mike,

Watched the episode where you pulled up a set of outdoor concrete stairs.  We have had our original concrete stairs crumble and last year ripped out and re-done.  Within 6 months the stairs have once again cracked and I am afraid before long we will see the same shifting and crumbling begin to occur.  The company that did the work for the second time has caulked the crack.  What  properly needs to be done to prevent this from happening again?  Mike, any suggestions or trusting experts that can help us out with this?

Mr Holmes,

I need your help. My family moved into a new home approx 3 years ago. There is one room at the front of the house that is for my 5 year old daughter. She can not sleep in this room in the colder months as the room get very cold. The bulider attempted to fix it with band aid repairs untill the warrenty ran out, now they will not come back even though this issue was ongoing well before the warrenty ran out. Can you kindly give me the name of a company you would use yourself to help us get this issue taken care of,

so Daddy can sleep in his own room again and my daughter Emily can have her princess room back.

Sincerly,

Kevin Bird

Hi Mike,

My husband and I just purchased a house in the city so we can be closer to our parents and to our jobs (we have two young daughters and our parents babysit them when we are at work). The problem with this house is that it's completely run down and it needs major renovations. How do I go about finding a GOOD contractor to do this job? Can you give me some ideas? And how much do you think the renovations will cost (roof, foundation, windows, isolation, basically keeping only the four walls and re-doing everything else. Please help! It would really decrease my stess level and help me sleep better at night! Thank you in advance.

Hi everyone,

Although we'd love to think that Mike checks out the HGTV.ca site now and then, it's more than likely that he will not see your comments. He is a busy man!

Im a big fan of your show. As a perfectionist (minus my typing skills) who's  been building since i could walk (Daddy's fault) it's nice to see i'm not the only one that spends my life fixing other builders faults. around here for every quality job there is twenty that i laugh at. I've built hundreds of houses and know every aspect of building however i've been a plastering and drywall contractor for twenty two years and i could teach ninetynine percent of the pros (in all aspects of building) a thing or two. there was a blog on here about a roof fix and the guy was right about the ice and water tar paper breathing issue. I just wanted to say that any drywall i've seen (from the pros or not) on tv makes me laugh' and tv hides a lot. As i said, i love your show,you and your crew are awesome but find some better subs(besides the painters and the plumbers)please!!!!!

Holmesy:

What is the name of the product John from Better Contracting used to seal the brick in his ghostbuster suit?

It was water repellant and environmentally friendly.

You said "any home owner can do this themselves" but neither you nor John say the name of the product.

I sent John an email, but never heard back at all.

I've watched you for years and think the contractors that you use should at least answer questions viewers ask of them. If they don't want the exposure, get them off the show!

They are a reflection on you.
