I recently bought a house with a warranty and I have been having this problem with my dishwasher, I've had the warranty company send out a dishwasher repairperson to look at it, and he said it was a problem with draining the dirty water, so a plumber came out and said there was nothing wrong and that I have to run the garbage disposal for at least 5 min before I run the dishwasher. This only halfway alleviates the problem. So I don't know where the problem is, the dishwasher or the disposal. Any advice?

My drain pipe from my house to the septic tank is clogged. I pushed a snake as far as I could untill it stopped. I pulled it out and found sea-weed like roots.
How do I kill them and clean them out?

Wsup guys, I stained my black polo shirt by accident. The stain is slightly darker than the black polo itself and it really stands out in the light. I've already washed it but it won't come out. Is there anyway to fix stains on a black piece of clothing or do I just have to buy a new one? Any links to good cleaning sites? Thanks!

I'm wondering if anyone can suggest a website or retailer that specializes in strange avante-garde lighting (weird neon lamps, neo-industrial design, ambient lighting, etc) Thanks.

I have 5 months which to finish his room so he can move into it. I'm painting it a ocean blue. But I need ideas for what else I can do with his walls. I can't find any Darth Vader border. I have star wars cortens and bed covers. (cartoon version) But the catch is we live in a rented apartment. So what ever goes on the walls has to come off the walls. Or be painted over when we leave.

My daughter put liquid soap used for hand-washing dishes, in the dishwasher. I started it, not realizing the wrong soap was in it. Now, my dishwasher is about over-flowing with suds!

How do I get rid of these suds, other than just letting it sit or running it over and over? Is there anything at home (like gas tablets or anti-foam carpet spray) I can use safely?

My husband and I love to watch the home improvement shows, but are very confused by how they get their materials and labor so inexpensive... How do they do it? We are willing to put in work ourselves, so that is the same or better than the shows... We tried to redo our kitchen, bath, and basement only and got quotes of what people redo a WHOLE house that is crappy for, why??? PLEASE HELP!!! We can't afford to move and need to update our home asap!

My jucuzzi bathtub has build up in the jets. When you run it with the jetts on, pieces of "stuff" comes out. It is small, like flakes and dark colored. How do I clean this and prevent this from happening-what products do I use. I dont want to use it again until it is throughly cleaned. How do you guys do it?

I have some houseplants, and I think they are attracting the gnats, which are really starting to get on my nerves. I can't put the plants outside right now; it's too cold. Is there some way to effectively get rid of the gnats?

Is it bad for the fridge to be kept off, or should I turn it on periodically? Should I store it with the door open?
