Blower Needed with Cellulose?


hello,

i have some minor insulation work to do on the front exterior wall of my brownstone. i’ve recently had the whole front parlor floor door replaced, but have still not closed up the interior wall around the door frame. as it’s getting cold, i want to get this wall insulated and sealed pronto.

as it’s not very much wall area that’ll need to be insulated (probably less than 15 cubic feet) and i have the interior wall completely open (exposed framing, no sheetrock), can insulate this myself with cellulose without a blower?

any tips appreciated!

thanks,
tracy

Need a Piece of Bluestone ASAP!


I need a piece of bluestone cut to particular dimensions ASAP. it would used for an exterior door threshold. I need a piece 52″ long x 12″ wide x 1″ thick. the most critical dimension is 52″ long; the other dimensions i could live with something slightly off.

I’ve been searching for a while, but the only people that seem to have anything are in new rochelle, and would take a week to fill this order. i’d like to buy from a brooklyn business (not having a car makes out of town business pretty inconvenient), or to buy a piece leftover from another job. something i could have cut to size would work, too.

any help appreciated.

Where in Brooklyn can I buy Cabot Semi-Solid deck stain?


Does anyone know of a Brooklyn (or NYC) outlet where I can get a gallon of Cabot Semi-Solid Deck stain mixed? I’d like to get one of their standard colors (“Barn Red”), but I haven’t found any place that will mix stains.

Any help appreciated.
