Home & Garden - 8 November 2006

I just washed a load of clothes and there is a HORRIBLE smell coming from the washing machine. It was just my 3 year old daughters clothes--nothing yucky. I also tossed in 6 new pairs of PJs that I took straight out of the package into the wash. Any ideas?

It won't drain. It will fill, soak, and spin but when it comes to the wash cycle it stops and then makes a humming noise until it shuts itself off. The machine is level. I have already drained the water, checked and cleaned the drainage hose and then tried it again. It still won't drain.

Thanks for the help.

How does it work? Im assuming they dont get your clothes wet or it wouldnt be called dry cleaning...Do they steam it? Is it really sanitary or just very nicely folded?

My fiance and I are looking at house plans and I found one I like. However, there is a section of the house that is called "Parlour" and I have no idea what it's for. It just looks like a waste of space. Could someone tell me what this is? Thanks!

The refrigerator is split vertically down the center. On the right side is one full-length refrigerator door. On the left side are two half-size freezer doors (top & bottom) separated by a center ice/water dispenser.

The unit is about 15 years old and a few months ago the full-length refrigerator door lost its suction, which now inhibits the door from staying securely shut.

Any significant movement to the unit—like the opening and closing of the other two freezer doors—causes the refrigerator door to open about ½ inch. This in turn produces condensation, which makes a puddle and then leaks through the floor.

I looked over all hinges and mechanisms—I also cleaned the unit thoroughly, but I have yet to find the problem. Any ideas what caused this or how I can fix it?

My basement wall is bowing on one end it appears as if it was braced before , what can be done about it? The floor is a road map of cracks which become little water ways when it rains . The floor is also uneven and sounds hollow underneath which I might add is creepy as hell. What can be done about all of this ? How much might it cost?Its fall should I wait or do it now?

The wall is thin mortar over cinder blocks. I worry that it will split if I use mortar nails. But tape is so ugly and doesn't always hold.
