Would you keep a lawn maintenance company that you are not really happy with; but they do all your neighbors yards too?
Is it a big deal to have all the yards mowed on the same day?

If you recieved advertising from a full service landscape maintenance company wanting you and your neighbors to switch over to thier service; with the intentions of doing yours and all the neighbors on the same day...... would you follow up and give it a chance to work?

I'm renovating my apartment and gonna go with a blue shade for paint(not for sure which yet) with a white border. In the meantime I'm also looking to replace some furniture, preferably the dining room table and purchase a coffee table. I'd like to hear your thoughts on should I go with a color scheme to match or not to match?

How do you get rid of gnats?! They've invaded my apartment and I can't put the plants outside yet. I've tried the insecticide soap, and it doesn't work. Must be animal friendly and guaranteed not to kill the 30 year old plant! Thanks!

Did you just open up the phone book and pick one?
Referral from a friend?
Saw them working in your neighborhood and flagged them down?

Ive got a buddy who broke one of those safety lasers on his garage door and wants to just by pass the switch....
I know there is a law against not installing them on a house but hes not the company installing it, and its just annoying any way

I looked at potterybarn, walmart, and target! I can't find any nice dinnerware. I'd like to find something sturdy for everyday use, but not plain and boring... Does anyone know of any good sites that have dinnerware sets? Give me as many links as possible please! =D

I had to buy a strange shaped receptacle for a tanning bed we just bought. The bed uses 110V, not 220V like some more powerful beds. Can I wire it into a regular grounded household receptacle box? I'm thinking the situation is similar to having to change the pigtail of a clothes dryer so it will fit the strange receptacle, or changing the receceptacle to fit the pigtail. I've done that. Of course, I'm not an electrician or anywhere close to a pro at this or I would not be asking such a simple question; but, I am reasonably smart when it comes to following instructions. Too, I am proud of my humility. (HA!)

I have tried all kinds of stain removers, chemicals that's available in the market but to no avail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Okay, so I live in Wisconsin, and on the Fox River. As of late there have been these bugs in my house, and more particularly in MY ROOM! They look kind of like crickets, brownish-tan, and triangular. They can fly, but they never really seem to. My friend from down the road, who also lives on the river knows what I'm talking about, but friend from the same town, not by the river doesn't, so I assume they come off the water. This was verified at the YMCA when a lady told me that she knows the bugs and she lives on the water (next town over from me) and that she heard they came in through the pipes...? I don't know, but they're creepy and freaking me out because I do not like killing things and I hate feeling like they're crawling all over me! UGH! So, any details on them would be super duper because I don't even know where to begin researching them... THANKS!

My subfloor is 5/8" plywood that was previously nailed and glued to the floor joists. Is this enough to nail down 5/8" bamboo flooring, or do I need to install another layer of plywood. Thanks!

My friend insists on cleaning with a mixture of Bleach and ammonia.
I have always heard that you shouldn't mix them. Is this not true?
