We've got an air vent on our living room wall that alows the gas fire and boiler to breath but in the winter it lets in a draught that means the room is always cold especially if you happen to be sitting in the line of the draught. I have seen on other peoples houses a cover on these vents, something like a sloping plastic vent cover that fixes to the wall over the vent but still allows the vent to breath but stops the direct draught because the wind would have to go 'up the vent' before going in through the wall. So the obvious thing to do would be ask the people where I've seen these vent covers right? No, 'cos everyone I've asked say 'It was on the house when we got here'. So I've been to B&Q and Jewson with no joy. I've also looked on ebay and searched google with little luck. Is there anyone out here who knows what I mean and can tell me where I can get one, thanks in advance.

I have an asphalt/tarry underlayment that needs to come off before refinishing. I can't see any way to get it off, it is really stuck.

I need help unclogging a toilet. I have tried plunging it, but that is not working. I really don't have the money to call a plumber. Is there any thing else I can do to try to unclog it myself?

I was just wondering what the stuff on the back of mirrors is. I'm talking about the chap vertical mirrors that you can buy at wal-mart for about $5 a pop. Is the reflective stuff painted on? Is there anyway I can do this myself to some plate glass o my own?

The whole bathroom has tiles. The top tiles are white and the bottom are aqua. There's one section of the tiles that are black. The toilet, soapdish,toothbrush holder are black. I purchased a black shower curtain, rug, toilet seat cover and towels, but that is getting boring to me. Any suggestions?

I was edging my garden the other day outside of my 1852 home when the ground started slipping away and I discovered an old cistern..I was surprised at the size and was wondering if I should just cover it and forget about it or fill it in..
