All I know is how to take care of it which came on the card with the plant or tree but I don't know anything about the item itself. It was purchased at Sam's Club & by the picture, the trunk intertwines itself. Anything would be helpful. Thank you.

My son wiped off his hand on our chair that's cream and he had vaseline on. Now his little hand print is on there. Any good remedy for stubborn stains?

Will steel constructions stakes (used to supoort 2x4 forms) harm the concrete if left inside the pour area? Even if driven below the top of the form? I cannot place them outside because the forms are too close to another surface.

When fishing near water lillies in the evening, we have heard a "snapping" sound all around us. The only thing we can figure out that it could be is the water lillies flowers closing. Does anyone know if thats what it is?

was blown out. The burners worked fine. Repair man said if I had not had warranty, that the cost would have been $200 or more. How do I prevent this from happening in future? Is hard to move stove out and pull plug during storm. What a rip these new computerized appliances are.

If a neighbours tree is seriously overhanging your boundary, blocking light and battering off my windows in winds. Who is responsible for paying for the tree to be cut back? Can he refuse to allow the tree to be cut.

How long should I wait? Do I turn the system off for a period of time then try again. We have been having electrical storms and a large portion of the grid went out twice. The AC stopped performing after the first power outtage and the "wait" indicator came on the thermostat. After about 4 hours, I turned the unit back on and it functioned properly, cooling the house. Then the power went out again for several hours. I turned the system off when the power returned and left it off over night, thinking it would come back up in the morning. But, it has since maintained the "Wait" message. Any advice on how to remedy before calling a tech would be most appreciated.

The shift joint on the both sides of my house has widened, the previous owners had used an ahhesive caulk to fill in this joint. The gap is now to wide to use caulking.

Living in a 70s built semi and the walls are made of paper (or so it seems). What can you do to soundproof the walls, who are the companies that do it, and how much does it cost?

Hi!

I'm changing my floor from carpet to wood flooring.

Can my old carpet underlay be used for wood flooring too?
(The underlay is still in good condition)

Thanks in advance!

We live in a townhouse and our central air is no longer working. We replaced the thermostat a little over a month ago and it worked again, but now it has stopped. The house fan will run, but when I set it to "cool" you hear a buzzing noise and the lights in my kitchen flash. There is no sound from the unit outside at all. It looks like an older unit. It's 8am and it's over 85 degrees in my place!
