For egress, it should never pass. It must open outward. Get a new window. It helps if you add a full description of your situation when you post for help.

This could be a stupid answer but don't you just keep it open with an empty can of soup, paint stir stick or ordinary household items?

Usually, awning windows open outward, not inward. Somewhat odd thing you have there but I have seen it before.

Reply to Electrical wiring help by fatherfirst35

12 gauge wire is not required. 14/2 & 14/3 would be more appropriate and cost effective and easier to put on the devices. It is typically easier to go outlet to outlet then hit your light switches then lights and fans.

Check your local code for smoke/co2 detectors, arcfault circuit breakers and make sure to have neutrals in the switch locations.

I don't mean to be an ass, but that installation is a classic build method. During inclement weather such a feature shall maintain the integrity of your home.

It was not put there for looks.

Reply to Advice on resurfacing over a brick/stone/concrete path by Plooplestein

I think it is beautiful. I would power wash it and hold on to it. The little ones will grow bigger feet and the stone will no longer be of concern. In my trade experience of over 30 years, that looks professionally installed. I would embrace it if you can.

Reply to Refinishing door and can’t remove paint by Large_Community36

Circa 1850 is an excellent product but on the toughest doors that clients demand restoration, I take them to a dipping facility.

The doors go into a tank and the technicians pull them up every day or so to see the progress. A local Google search in your area may provide results. If not, call some contractors in your area that do restoration work. Any seasoned professional will have a dip strip contact in their Rolodex.

Reply to Any tricks to getting this stuff off my basement walls? by repstein26

The EMT to that receptacle has no offset. Would not hurt to strap the EMT closer-ish to the device location(add a strap). You could try a pressure washer on the walls, but you need a drain and lots of clean up.

Reply to Drywall beneath screw locations is bulging. What could be causing this? by LowHat5830

Screwing those MDF boards into the studs, pulled the drywall full into the stud, removing a small gap and popping the drywall screws. It happens all the time in areas where drywall is not installed fully flush with the wall studs.
