Fix It Home Improvement

I gave this four stars because I like the home improvement tips that are given. I had no idea that there was something like this available However , I wish that the information was presented as a conversation rather than just being read. Most of the time Co-host Cindy seems completely uninterested, but throws in the occasional obligatory “cool,” “uh-huh,” or scripted question of clarification. While the spelling of product names is practical it gets a bit annoying in my opinion. In spite of these criticisms, I will continue to listen, because I love thinking about this stuff. Keep ‘em coming.

I enjoyed your latest podcast about replacing shingles on a house’s roof. I have some questions that may be you could pursue or suggest where I could get answers. 1) I am aware of at least two different types of ridge vent materials. What’s recommended? 2) How does the color of the shingles impact attic temperature? 3) I have solar panels. Does the typical roofing contractor uninstall/reinstall solar panels during shingle replacement? 4) It is typical practice in some parts of the country to condition the attic. I am in Connecticut. My air handler is in the attic. Is it worth investing in conditioning my attic or at least insulating under the roof deck versus the attic floor?

They cover almost any home improvement topic you can think of. Jacy really knows his stuff and doesn’t waste the listener’s time. Some people say that Cindy is annoying, but I think she makes the podcast more listenable by breaking up the run on information with important questions and throws in a funny comment every now and then.

Mumbles incoherently; is there no one else around to co host?
