Good Day Everyone! We have a 5-year old Kenmore Elite 795.74025.412 French Door fridge fridge that so far worked fine. Now it has frost in freezer. Reasons? Ways to fix? TIA!

We have a hood over the range that we want to replace with a slim over-range microwave with exhaust. I was told that microwave would have to have it's own dedicated electric line. Is this true? TIA!

I have a WED5521SQ0 dryer that's about 13 years old. Stopped working: the light comes on when I open the door, but when I push the start button, the bin is does not move and there is no heat. Also, the start button "sinks" when you press it. So does this sound like a faulty switch? Or a blown...

The pix show a section of my gutters. All gutters are covered with these plastic gutter guard panels. When it rains heavily, the circled section overflows. The panels are a couple of years old and this section of the roof is under two large trees, an oak and a cherry, so there is quite a bit of...

I have a split-level 2 story house built in 1960 that is shaped like a large T. In one of the sides of the T and its foot, I have to gable vents. Have an attic fan at one of them (the one in the first picture). The fan died after running for about 5 years. The electrician who installed a...

Don't ask me why but I need to figure out the age of French door fridge in the picture. Model=pfs22sisbss, serial=dm... If I read How to Determine the Age or Manufacture Date of a GE Appliance right, it was made in Feb of either 2019 or 2007. Based on what it looks like, the label or anything...

I have this 60x36 workbench on my patio and I need to remove the canopy that's covering it. What I want to do is to buy or make some sort of cover/"lid" that would cover the top to protect it from the elements. It only needs to extend over the top, it does not need to cover the whole w/b to the...

I live in Maryland. The photo shows my backyard. The area between the shed and bamboo is about 20' wide. I want to plant privacy fence trees of some sort, maybe Green Giants. The roof of the shed faces south and it gets a lot of sun during the day but of course the area next to it is partially...

My driveway has a border made of pavers. The only reason for having them is that if I remove them my neighbor will get flooded during heavy rains. These pavers are a pain when mowing and they are ugly. I want to get rid of them. If I want to direct rainwater toward the street instead of into his...

Finished rehabbing a house that stood empty for a few months. Well water. One of the new Dulles was installed before all the other ones, now we have a sediment in the tank and the bowl. I think it came from pipes that were not used for a while. What's the best way to remove the sediment? Would...

Every time it rains a lot, we end up with this pond in our backyard. My yard sits in between my neighbors' from both sides in elevation, so there has always been a stream flowing through my yard during heavy rains. But lately the water has been collecting at the fence. My neighbor recently might...

In the house we bought previous owners did a terrible job staining their deck. The deck itself is not the problem. The problem is that they splashed the red stain on the bottom of the siding and the stone walls. Apologies for the low-res photo but I think the stains are visible. We can...

I have a Frigidaire side-by-side fridge with a loose handle on the fridge side. It's very similar or identical to the one shown in this video. The video and others like it show how easy it is to remove the handle by pushing it up. I just tried pushing real hard but it didn't move a bit. I...

This maple has been planted many moons ago by the city on the city right of way in front of my house. Its roots have been growing in my front yard. Mowing the lawn has become a pain but it's bearable. But should I be concerned about these roots doing some sort of damage to the foundation of my...

We live in a split level house build in 1960. Replaced the HVAC system about 10 years ago. It seems that every winter we generally feel colder in the house. We change our HVAC filters every 6 months and cleaned the ducts a couple of years ago. Is there a way to do some sort of full-house...

I need to find an exact replacement for this 4.10/3.50-4 hand truck wheel. When I search Amazon using just "4.10/3.50-4" I find a lot of items that sort of look right but are not quite the same width or something else if off. I already returned one wheel that I bought and that didn't match. Is...

We have this gutter section (shown in red) that is functional but dirty, has some minor dings in a few places and just looks like an eyesore to me. We're preparing this house for sale so I am concerned that it'll be an eyesore to potential buyers too. Should I replace it with a shorter section...

A few months ago Verizon upgraded my Fios service to 1Gbit so they had to switch from coax to CAT6. They refused to enter my house due to COVID restrictions so since then I've had the outside ONT unit connected to my router with a CAT6 wire fed through my window! I want to drill a hole in the...

Is there a chemical way to remove rust from all parts of this vintage meat grinder so that I can use it afterwards for its intended purpose? I prefer to avoid having to sand them by hand. TIA

Hello Everyone We just bought a house and found there an old Sanborn B07FL350-20 air compressor. I know nothing about compressors. How do I test it? When I plug it in, it immediately starts running/charging and I cannot switch the on/off switch into the off position. Does it mean it's broken...
