I don't think there is, but one of my friends is trying to convince me there is such a thing. Please give me proof that it's real or not like a website. Thanks! :)

I purchased a town house in sept 2006. Ever since there is a gradually worsening problem.
After a shower the bathroom floor waste stinks.(Upstairs). also there is a horrible stink in my Kitchen(downstairs) during rainy weather, or after I have used washing machine.
When the wash is letting out water into the laundry tub, it flows out of the tub fine, but it comes up the floor waste of the laundry, sometimes about 1/2 a bucket full, and this once contained some rubble !!!!
Help, I am not flush with money, and I will repay any advice by applying my 25 years of nursing experience to the respondent, it certainly doesn't help me here!!!

I purchased laminate countertop with a granite pattern. The pattern is really neat. Want to add a gloss product to give it that real granite finished look. Any suggestions? What about poly? Is there a poly that does not flake? Help . . .

I am awaiting several important articles of mail ( as I am sure most of us are after the long holiday). We normally get our mail around noon, it is 5:30 pm and no one in our district/route has gotten thiers yet. how late is it before the mailman call it quits for the day? This is a serious question, please.

I just bought a house that has a sump pump (which is new to us)and when we are there we can see clear water pouring into my sump pump basin all the time (constant). which causes the sump pump to come on every 3-5 min. Is this to excessive or is that just how it is. My house is 10 years old and it sits on a hill but my basment of course is partly under ground. We also have a spetic system. But we arn't living there yet so it hasnt had much use yet. We also have city water I was thinking that the water pipe might be leaking somwhere befor the water meater, but i dont know. What can we do? Please help?

I'm a first time and last time buyer of a Hampton Bay Fan. I bought a Redington IV fan about 6 months ago and it just stopped working. No great service from Hampton either. They want me to spend $45 on a transformer and of course its not covered under warranty. Did anyone else have trouble with these fans? I'm sticking with Hunters Fans. In 14 years in this house I never had a problem with all 6 fans.

Recently moved into ths house and have had the heating on as well as the hot water. I've recently noticed that the central heating pump (Grundfoss) is running all the time. The only way to stop the pump is to switch the whole system off. Other that that it is all working perfectly, heating working when I need it in every room and loads of hot water. Just this pump running that is keeping me awake at night.
