Hi guys, I have a Whirlpool side by side fridge that's about 9 months old. It has water/ice through the door and lately the flow has been steadily decreasing. It was down to just a trickle so I replaced my supply line, thinking it might be deposits in the line. The flow seems slightly...

Hi all, My wife, who has a nose much more sensitive than me apparently, had been complaining of a "metallic" smell when she takes a shower. I honestly have never noticed any kind of smell. So I drained our hot water heater a couple of weekends ago. There was barely any sediment and only a...

Hi all, Hopefully this is the right section for this. I mentioned in a couple of other threads several months ago that we were getting ready for a kitchen renovation. It took a bit longer than we anticipated (doesn't everything?) but it's finally done! Not a perfect job by any means, but...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has ever had an electrician in to run new circuits. We're in the early stages of a kitchen remodel and we're going to need to have new circuits run for a dishwasher and garbage disposal. It's an older house which never had these appliances at all. The...

Hi all, I have a question about a kitchen remodel. We're in the final stages of planning and my wife was asking about adding an island. The kitchen isn't huge, though, and I'm not sure it would be big enough. The overall size is 12' x 11' with no unusual niches or anything. All the...

Hi all, Looking for some opinions/pros/cons regarding ductless range hoods. We're about 90 days out (hopefully) from beginning a kitchen remodeling project and I'm trying to work out as much as I can before actually ripping into things. Has anyone had one of these non-vented hoods in their...

Hello all, Have a pretty strange question. We're in the very early stages of planning a kitchen remodel and one thing we'll definitely be doing is replacing the range. It's (probably) original to the house, which was built in 1964. It's a GE electric built in range, and it has an ID plate...

Hi all, We're in the very early stages of planning a kitchen remodel and I've seen some sites that sell ready to assemble cabinetry. Has anyone had any experience with this type of cabinet? From what I've read, a lot of them are real wood with a finish applied. But since we would put them...

Hi all, Hoping to get some advice. We just bought a house and I was installing a couple of more modern ceiling light fixtures in the upstairs bedrooms. I cut off the main breaker in the service panel, did the installation, and turned the main back on to test the fixture. It worked fine, but...

Hi all, Hoping to get some recommendations for the following. In the house we just bought, it has hardwood floors throughout. They're in pretty good shape for being over 40 years old, but at some point a previous owner put some of those self-stick vinyl tiles just inside the front door. The...

Hi all, I'm Eric, just registered on the forum tonight. :) My wife and I are buying a home which has paneling in the den. It's an older home, built in 1964, and there's no drywall behind the paneling. We want to redo the room and we're considering just painting, or texturing then painting...

Hi all, I'm Eric and I've been reading the forum for a while now, but decided to register as my wife and I are buying a house and I'm sure I'll have plenty to ask/discuss here! I've been in the US Air Force for a little over 22 years now, and until now we've only rented. So this is actually...
