## Community Q&A

**Q: Do you have an opinion about an under-counter located microwave oven?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

I find them a pain because I have to kneel or bend in order to program the oven, yet more and more designers are locating them under the counter. What are your thoughts?

A: My customers typically reject them because they need to bend over to use them however, if you have children that are old enough to use them as mentioned above, it is better for them than having one over the stove.    Mine is over my wall oven and also acts as a second convection oven.  It has a built-in look like it would under the counter.
If you have limited wall space and you have gone with a range hood that does not have a microwave, it is better than having one that sits on the counter.
Since most people seem to reject them, it will not help with resale. 
I guess the long and short of it is that if you don't have the room for one on the wall or counter, it is better than not having one at all.

**Q: Replacing shower recessed light with vent/light** *(in Remodeling)*

Our house has a 6" can light over the bath/shower. I am going to replace the recessed can light with a Broan vent/light. I have the adjacent kitchen wall drywall down and can see what I am dealing with (can't reach light from above), and I plan on tracing the shape of the vent fan light onto the ceiling and cutting back the drywall. I will have to make it bigger so I can properly screw to the studs.

Old bathroom currently has textured ceiling and I won't mind it being smooth. So is it best to just mount the new vent fan light a .5" lower and then screw new drywall right over the existing ceiling? That is my current plan, but will the new drywall layer hold fast since the edges aren't being supported by the wall drywall?

Or is it better just to patch in the extra pieces and then skim coat the whole ceiling? I've never skim coated before.

Thanks

A: Have you considered how your going to vent the fan?  You need to find a way to get it outside the house.  You should not blow it into your attic or soffits. You may need to remove more drywall than you think.
The drywall should hold fine unsupported by the wall sheets however if you are going to install new drywall, why not remove the old drywall first?  You will have access to deal properly with your fan/light and ventilation.  It is not that much more work and unless there was something like loose insulation up there.  Even then it might be worth dealing with. One layer of drywall is lighter and easier to deal with when it comes to things like recessed lights and ceiling fans.  Some times the clips that hold the housing in place need that 1/2" above pane to be wood and create the plane by attaching to the joists or strapping (depending on your location)
If you are going the patch and skim rout and you have not done it before, it could be time consuming and difficult to get the results you would want.
Good luck with your project!

**Q: Painting a stone fireplace that has already been painted** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Purchased a home built in 1929.  Exterior is stone and also has a stone fireplace that the previous owners painted white.  Do not like the white paint on fireplace.  Looking for suggestions on how to re-do awful white paint.  Looking for a more natural, rustic look.

A: Have you considered removing the paint?  Stone is durable enough to sandblast.
