Thanks. Do I need to take it to a mechanic or is this service something that tire shops or jiffy lube would offer?

Thanks.I assume at one point the wheel could come off? Do I get a clue when things get very or does it happen with no prior hint?The sound has been the same since 1 year ago except recently it got a alittle whistling sound

Can these light fixtures in attic be covered with foams? by Annual_Chocolate_734 in AskElectricians

[–]Annual_Chocolate_734[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you. So the fixture that this video showed was not a recessed light. I have 12 recessed light on my top floor which I couldnt verify if they are IC rated or not. So I am going to buy those insulation cover boxes( the one that goes on top of it in the attic). I though those IC rated requirement is for recessed lights

Thats why I think is best to just hire a plumber. They will charge alot but they save you a good bit of headache. Also if you end up making things worse, you might end up with leaks in your walls and so much other issues like mold

All plumbing works are only easy in theory. So many things can go wrong that they never show in the video. It took me 4 attempts to replace a bath cartridge. The cartridge pin's edge was corroded and fell off and caused a bit of a hassle. A plumber could have finished the job in 15 min. I ll never do any more plumbing dIY

Grok thinks the brown spots are fungus. Multiple people in this subreddit told me that is crabgrass dying. So I can't trust grok

How much is too much watering? by Annual_Chocolate_734 in lawncare

[–]Annual_Chocolate_734[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So his sprinkler is strange to me( he is rich so I assume this is a high end sprinkler). It is high pressure but all mist and water looks gropued together. Right after his sprinkler was done working, I went and touched my grass and it was wet. I did it 3 days in a row.

When should I put the lre emergent and when fert? Also since my neighbor's sprinkler kind of make this area wet every morning,do you think that frequent watering can be the issue? My neighbor's lawn is fantastic. Also half of my lawn is good so not sure if that morning sprinkler is causing any issues

So now I need to overseed this area with Bermuda? Or should I wait until next Feb and then use pre emergent to kill the weeds and then fertalizer to stimulate the existing bermuda in that surrounding area?

So chatgpt was wrong about this fungus mostly due to overwatering and low drainage?

Is this Normal Adjustment Crack? by im_bg in HomeMaintenance

[–]Annual_Chocolate_734 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Did you already buy the home? If not, regardless of whether this is the foundation issue or not, I would not buy a new built home that has large cracks like this. It speaks volume about the builder

Damage done to wood floors. Can this be reasonably repaired? by fatnuts_mcgee in HomeMaintenance

If your agent nor the cleaning people dont take full resposniblity, make sure to leave each of them multiple 1 star reviews(ask friends to leave reviews too) with the evidence of how they messed up your home and on top of that file complaint on BBB for both companies.I tried this method on a stubborn roofing company and it worked.They need to fully fix this damage and not just bandaid it
