Does anyone know the phone number or address for the manufacturer of Carefree Heather carpets. I had one of these installed 18 months ago and it is in terrible condition - the hessian backing is seperating from the pile. The bloke we bought it from also installed it, and although we have contacted him on numerous occassions, and despite promises of visiting us and contacting the manufacturer, we have yet to have any sort of result. He will not give us the details of the manufacturer but the carpet is dangerous and it needs replacing asap. Can anyone help?

I have a condo. It is built like a town house (end unit). It is 3BR, 1FB 1HB, 1,400 SF. The bedrooms upstairs are kind of small. I was thinking of knocking out the wall of one of the largest rooms to merge two rooms. It would almost make a master br. Is this acceptable. I was told this would lower the value of the house. Also we have a Dinning Room that is between the living rom and Kitchen. I was thinking of getting rid of the DR and making the Living room bigger and making a eat in kitchen?

on my brand new "fiberglass" front doors? I have the stain [color] picked out as well. I have gotten 3 estimates so far and each contractor told me something "completely" different about the application. Also, the $$$ quotes were outrageous! Thank-you(s) in advance! XOXO Moonpie

What's the deal with thread count for sheets? I heard that the higher the count the better the sheets. But is there a big difference between say, 500 and 800?

I compounded/mudded my joints in my bathroom,the mud was dry, sanded it and smoothed it down and followed all the steps. However, when I went to prime the walls a small portion of the mud started peeling off. What caused this? Should I be concerned that other parts will do this? How can I fix this so it won't peel again?

I have really big posters in my room. it's hard keeping them up with enough glu tack. And sometimes the glu tack peels off and the entire poster falls over the wall, causing creases and other marks ont he posters.

So does one just keep on using big blobs of glu tack or is there another way to keep big posters up?
