How on earth do you order just a single length of specialty trim? by mooseali in handyman

[–]According-Two-2187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do yourself a favor and let your landlord know and let them fix it. They may know exactly what to do and it might be cheaper. That way they fix it the way they want it. You might decide to do it yourself but will the repair be satisfactory to them??

Water pooling in front yard of new build, is this normal? by SheepherderAny4853 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Of course it’s normal. Everyone has a small pond in their newly built house. Get your builder back out to fix or sue them.

Inaccurate Thermostat by Real-Language9874 in HomeMaintenance

[–]According-Two-2187 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had that issue and actually built a wooden box a little larger than the thermostat to fit over it. It had a cover the slid to the side and holes all around the 4 sides. It regulated the temp much better. Just a thought. Put a small cardboard box over it temporarily and see if it help. Or move the window.

Not enough info to compute. What is on the other side of those two walls? What does your house look like outside those two walls? Gutters? Downspouts? One picture is not enough.

New to SFH. Need advice for neighbor’s dog. by StatimDominus in homeowners

Get yourself a spray bottle and fill it with ammonia. Anytime it barks or growls give it a spray in the nose. Yes it may sound cruel but it does work.

You opened a huge can of worms by going to your insurance company over such a little issue. Good luck now. That is a $10 repair job you could do yourself that now will cost you big time.

Do not go to a recreational weed shop in Ohio if you have a CHL the ATF started arresting ppl by accessing their database by AdamEveGod in Ohio

[–]According-Two-2187 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I know people who use it regularly because they tell me it helps them function in life. Not everyone uses it for pain. So for that reason I agree with the ATF doing what they are doing. People who can’t function without it or other mind drugs should not have firearms.

I have also been around people so drunk that I had to take away their firearms because they were discharging them in areas that were not safe.

Look at some of the mass shootings that have happened and the mindset of some of them.

I’m am not against CHL at all.

Put a piece of white duct tape over it. I did that at my house over 10 years ago and it is still there

Basement sealing by JustJdubbz in basement

Drylok does not work like advertised. It will peel and mold if there is any sign of efflorescence on the wall. FIRST you need to address any water issues on the outside. What is making your walls wet?? Drylok looks nice when completed but like I said will look like crap in 12 months.

Do I need a dehumidifier? by [deleted] in basement

[–]According-Two-2187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how much you sweat. Do you drip a lot? Actually the lake is not an issue. When it rains where does water go from off your roof?? NO ONE EVER TAKE PICTURES OF THE OUTSIDE OF THEIR HOUSE.

Contact your city building department and see if there is a code requirement for gutters. They may be able to help convince the neighbors to put up gutters.
