In this episode of Handy Ma'am Hotline, Mercury and Maggie debate on what a caller means by a "storm door", and Mercury works to solve the problem for both cases. Mercury also discusses the best way to get an accurate paint sample for matching, different ways to loosen a deadbolt that seems to not want to turn, a renter with a landlord that refuses to fix a cracked ceiling AND REMOVE BATS FROM THE ATTIC! And she gives tips for filling in small holes on wood paneling.
