SHOW NOTES:

  • Gutter Maintenance: Faulty gutters can cause expensive damage all around your home. Learn how to keep your gutters in shape.
  • Space Heaters: Want to warm up that chilly room? These space-age space heaters offer the perfect solution.
  • Bathtub Refinishing: Tired of seeing that ring around the bathtub? We’ve got 4 refinishing ideas for a tub that needs a good scrub.

     Plus, answers to your home improvement questions.

    • Contractors: Is there a way to handle pushy contractors with bad attitudes? We offer Rita a suggestion on how to find the best home improvement contractors.
    • Pavers: George wants to know the best way to lock concrete pavers in place. He gets tips on how much space he needs and using a flexible patio border edging.
    • Wood Paneling: There’s dark wood paneling throughout Dena’s house. We tell her how to clean, sand, and prime the paneling before painting it over.
    • Bathroom Exhaust Fan: Condensation drips down the bathroom walls every time Brian uses the shower. He should get a more powerful exhaust fan that vents outside the house and be sure it runs long enough.
    • Window Drafts: It’s freezing in Renea’s apartment! We’ve got tips on using weatherstripping caulk and shrink film to seal the drafts around windows and sliding doors.
    • Hard Water: Even with a water softener system, mineral deposits are causing spots when Clair washes the cars. It’s time to have the water softener checked and serviced again.
    • Wallpaper Removal: Is there an easy way to remove layers of wallpaper? We tell Thomas how to cut, moisten, and loosen the paste or rent a wallpaper steamer.
    • Cleaning Garage Floors: Laurie’s garage floor is coated with layers of oil and grease. Her best bet is to power wash it with a TSP solution, then add an epoxy finish.
    • Stone Countertops: Is there a maintenance-free natural stone countertop? Quartz and concrete are good alternatives to granite, but Ross will still need to give them some amount of care.
