When trying to refinish an old hard surface such as a tub consider what you are asking a product to do. The original finish was thick and baked onto the surface at a very high temperature to get it to become one with the iron surface.Over the years this has naturally worn down from use. Now we...

If the laminate tops have the rolled lip on them your corian won't sit level but probably tilt back toward the wall. As to try and remove the lip it woul be easier to remove the laminate and install the corian by itself. this also eliminates the task of what to do with the trim edge created...
Figured it out!! Finally broke down and called the repairman. Found out the burners were rusted and not firing! Duh! Seems like I missed that one! Glenn , the heat exchanger was replaced about 6 years after furnace installation. The basement is quite humid during the spring -summer and fall due...
Ditto on the wax ring to the floor flange. As many of these as I have installed I never knew they put the directions on the box saying to install on the commode. One day my daughter and husband were complaining about how difficult it was to install a new wax ring on there commodeso I went over...
Have a Goodman furnace, no AC. Made in 1991 Installed 1992. 80 % High eff. This thing is driving me nuts!! Starting last year every once in a while the burners would not light clear across, say only 3 out of five for the first few tries then they would all kick in and heat up the house as...

One possibillity would be to remove the drain trim (the silver part that you can see) which will be a challenge in itself since the center bars are...

Yep! Replace it ! If you're real good you can couple it in both directions with standard glue in couplers . Fit it dry, clean both the coupler both the pipe ends (with proper cleaner) then apply glue to all surfaces both pipe ends and coupler ends the shove em together and twist the coupler a...
Hey Jimbob,
I've seen the Plastic tongue & groove planking on line but only found it available in your area! Any info on the Manufacturer and if they sell in the US? I do alot of small bath remodels and people are always inquiring about installing hardwood flooring, (big thing these days in...
Might be a stab lock connection on the back of the receptacle . If so rewire so that wire is secured to the receptacle at the screw connection. Stab locks will work loose sometimes but look fine when inspected.
yep! I replace about 6 per year for my csutomers here in the middle of Ohio every year! we have an "alternating" climate you know, 50 Degrees one day and 20 Degrees the next, so every once in a while someone will decide to hook up the hose in January and wash the car! Guess what ! they forget to...
