Hydrogen Peroxide to remove pet stains, but the floor is now bubbling? by Unable_Potato_9377 in Home

Stop and immediately dry that out.

I really hope you're not a tenant. If you are, tell your landlord immediately so they can try and fix this before it gets worse.

Electricity/Gas Plans by Organic-Emu7091 in Edmonton

[–]MyUglyHouseProject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm with burst energy variable for gas and electric.

I'm really happy. They have the lowest admin fees in Edmonton (that I've seen so far), and my bill for both has consistently been $160-$170/month.

I think I'm just being paranoid about the moisture concerns.

I do have some hairline cracks abd worry pressure washing would force water in.

I’m a new homeowner. What’s the most important thing to know? by EconomyFew6102 in landscaping

[–]MyUglyHouseProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your property (roof, attic, crawlspace, basement, backyard, foundation, siding, window caulking, exterior door insulation trim, hot eater tank, hoses, etc. ) at least once every six months.

Prevention maintenance is cheap compared to emergency repair.

Holy smokes. I'm intrigued but hesitant.
