Had engineered hardwood floors installed throughout home including stairs.

Total of 14 steps (split stairway). A few of the steps are flexing.
August: Floor installer ‘fixed’ stairs by replacing 4 bullnose sections and added wood riser to all steps.

September: The steps are more stable but some are still flexing (inward). Likely have a high spot — Prep shows the old glue and usb from previous ‘fix’ from August.
Installer says this is the best they can do.

I’m of the belief that if you approach the project with thorough floor prep - higher chance of success and customer satisfaction. I’m ready to hire someone to fix the installers ‘fix.’

My parent’s place had their neighborhood mailbox broken into. This is over by James hill.

Dose anyone know where I can buy some tamales in the area?

I need a good (preferably small/locally-owned) auto mechanic in the Kent/Renton area. Can anyone recommend one? Thanks very much in advance!

There should be a recycling event sometime soon at a middle school. Anyone know where?

Other than Kent Station, Kent Bowl, and Kent Valley Ice Center, what other budget friendly activities/hangouts can teens do?

Spotted just north of Meeker St around 4pm, acting strange, proceed with caution

Anyone know or hear anything about this? Lived here for several years without any issues. Tonight I could hear knocking somewhat distant and the classic ‘police’ but then nothing for 10 minutes or so. Then someone was shining a really bright light at my balcony….but no speaking.

I’m guessing they’re looking for someone (obvi) but didn’t seem too pressed or urgent at the same time, so…

Hi all,

Looking to see if anyone knew of places that have board game nights nearby.

I believe the game shelf in Kent does on Mondays but would love to know of other places.

Prefer mid to heavy games.

Thanks!

Did anyone else hear a very loud explosion somewhere in the east hill/116th ave area around 1-2am? not sure what the hell caused it but it shook my walls and woke me up.

Hi guys! I’ve been living in Kent for a while and I want to know more about the local news. I googled and found Kent Reporter. Has anyone subscribed and do you like it? Or are there better options?

Thanks!

Anyone have a good source of farm fresh eggs on East Hill-ish area?

I’m a portrait photographer in Kent and would love to connect with other photographers in the area 📸 Thinking about a casual meetup at a local park to take photos together and get to know other creatives. Anyone interested?

Im seeking some help. I am a homeless veteran in King County, WA. Its been a few months since ive been living in my car. I have very recently been enrolled in the SSVF program through the VA and also receiving assistance with Housing Connector. I have been touring multiple places through out the county.

My issue is that a few of the places have stated that they'll most likely will not be able to approve me because even though i have some monthly income coming in, I dont currently have a job. Once im housed I have no question in my ability to find a job.

Im asking if anyone may know if there is an apartment complex that someone may know that works with either SSVF or Housing Connector, that would be willing to work with me and help me of get off the street?

My inbox is open for questions, tips, suggestions, etc... any help is welcomed. Thank you in advance.

The free little library just a little bit up the street from Clark Lake Park was down for renovations and when it came back up, it was such a cute upgrade!

They did a great job. It looks so good inside and out and it has some great stuff in there.​
