Red Mountain 34′ Tiny House

Image
Red Mountain is a group of three peaks in between Silverton and Ouray, CO. One can get an outstanding view of these magnificent San Jaun peaks whilst descending Red Mountain pass (11,018′) towards Ouray. The mountains are most notable for their distinctive red hues , as a result of iron oxide present in the mineral content of the rock. The vicinity was heavily mined in the late 1800’s and remnants of this human activity remain in the form of rustic houses, storage sheds, mine shafts, and other mining structures. Incredibly weathered wood has withstood the harsh climate of this environment for decades. To say the place is “grandiose” or “epic” falls short of the aura this landscape provokes. We have waited a long time for the right tiny house deserving of this honorable title. Built on a 34′ bumper pull chassis, not only is this the largest tiny to ever leave our shop, but it is outfitted with some of the nicest features we’ve ever included. The massing is broken into three section...

Silicone fails bathroom in multiple ways

Q. We have a shower stall, with ceramic tiles on the walls and floor, which was installed by the previous homeowner about seven years ago. Within a year of moving in, some of the grout started to come loose in various places in the shower. We assumed that it hadn't been properly sealed , so we had a company called The Grout Doctor come out to patch it up. At that time, the company filled in the grout and then placed some kind of silicon- type clear caulk at the joint where the wall and floor come together. We continued to have grout come loose in other places that had not been repaired, so we had the same company come out again. It re-grouted and replaced the silicone caulk -- this time putting the caulk in all of the joints -- where the walls meet, where the walls and floor meet, and where the shower door meets walls and floor. After about one year, black mold started growing in multiple spots underneath the clear silicone caulk . I assume water is getting trapped bene...
