.) - whose great idea was it to create pipe threads that need either tape or pipe dope to actually seal?

Does anyone have a recommendation for someone to tape and mud a house in Chicago at North and Cicero?  

We manage a large group of homes on section 8 and while we would love to house those families in need the administration and red tape in the program makes being profitable for a landlord prohibitive often in okc.7. don't pick your manager because they are the cheapest. 

He put in a new back door and also worked yesterday and has put up the new dry wall ceiling in the garage and the new kitchen ceiling and also taped it.  

For us, "project completion" is defined as the date when all work is complete, all inspections passed and permits officially closed, and the final client walk-through is complete and approved (we complete a preliminary walk-through in the last week of the project to blue tape any remaining issues and create a running "punch list" that is shared with our clients so everyone is on the same page).

One of the few things the government got right as it avoids red tape to get the materiel out of the buildings.

(pillows and stuffed animals can be put directly in the dryer on high heat). we took all the furniture apart that we could, and covered the entire room with diatomaceous earth(including taking dresser drawers out and getting every nook and cranny- being thorough is key), pulling all small items, picture frames, legos, toys, candlesticks, anything on the walls, in the closets, storage items- everything we didn't cover in de, in the center of the room and/or soaked in tubs of vinegar. we wrapped the legs of all furniture that couldn't be taken apart with saran wrap, and placed them in shallow bowls of vaseline(makeshift trap). when the bedding and fabric items came out of the dryer, we bagged them in garbage bags, and secured the bags with packing tape, making sure there were no cracks or tears, then put them in the center of the room. 4. we did that to each bedroom, the living room, dining room, and bathroom. in the kitchen, we puffed de behind the switch plates with the foam inserts, and under appliances that generate heat(heat=bedbug food). 5. we let it sit like that for two weeks, and when we were done, we cleaned thoroughly. we bought a good handheld steamer for everything that could be steamed. we cleaned one room at a time, starting with a vacuum, and wiping the de of hard surfaces. we left de in the nooks and crannies(by the way- they CAN live behind wallpaper, and even the tags sewn onto mattresses), and made sure that everything we put back from the center of the room was steamed, vacuumed, or wiped off thoroughly. we replaced every mattress and bought good covers for each of them, as a preventative measure. also as preventative measures, we left the de under appliances, we left the foam inserts behind the switch plates, and for a few weeks after, we left the vaseline traps in place.
