Re: Hello From Wisconsin
Welcome!
I just got back from three weeks behind the Cheese Curtain! ![]() Working on Middle Sis' bathroom in Racine. Closest real lumber yard I could find was Worzella's up in Franklin, 45 min. each way.

Re: Hello From Wisconsin
I spread it around a bit though.
Hired United Mechanical for plumbing, and Floortech Interiors to lay her Marmoleum. Take a hint. ![]() Put Racine,Wi in your profile. It saves a lot of misunderstandings, trust me.
