Our first caller is phoning it in from Ohio, where the heat-pump compressor under her recently constructed condo’s bedroom window is keeping her awake at night. 

Our next caller had an issue with a mold infestation and as a consequence has to redo the interior of hre condo, so she needs to know about counter heights, and painting celings and walls.
