We are looking to refurbish my wife's childhood homemade wooden dollhouse for our children (for Christmas). It has some mildew and a rather musty smell. We have seen it mentioned to use a biocide on porous surfaces and were thus hoping someone might be able to recommend a solution (and/or cleanser that can be purchased) that will remove and prevent future mold/mildew. Anything used would have to be safe for children. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks so much!!

since they're building the house in anywhere between 5-7 days, is it possible that the house is built with quality? i don't know anything about home maintenance/repair so just curious if a house that is built in a week is not going to fall apart in a few years and cost the homeowner $$$ to maintain the home.

My plywood base is not perfectly level as the home is 100 years old. Can I install linoleum or must I level the floor first? Thank you

I have found out there is a nice wood flooring under the linoleum, but the stuff that I am using right now seems that it will take about 6 months to get all this glue off!
Help please!

We are remodeling an old house and have scraped the wallpaper down to the wallboard. The wallpaper had been painted over. Now do we sand before putting the primer on or do we paint (basecoat) and then sand? The wallboard isn't smooth.

I want to install a dishwasher where there has been none. I have a relatively useless set of bottom cabinets to the right side of the sink I would like to remove. Is it possible to take them out without removing the countertop? If so what is the easiest way to do this?

This question is gonna have to do with my old question which is here:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ApAzVKLOJR_.pEgH4_igApfsy6IX?qid=20061207162703AAacpbN

My dad said we aren't gonna need any primer to do it and I think he's out of his mind. Not only are there little holes in the walls (and numerous big ones) and lots stained patches of stickiness that came from tape but I think the color that I want to paint my room (light purple) wont cover up the texture (wich is sorta like cross-hatching lines) and design of the wall paper. I tried to explain it to him but my dad's kind of hard headed when it comes to things like this....he thinks he knows everything. So do you think it's gonna come out ok with my dads idea or do we desperatly need to used 2 coats of primer.
Here's a picture of my wall: http://s22.photobucket.com/albums/b328/MetalChick8591/?action=view¤t=000_2550.jpg

Please let me know what you think. I need as many answers as possible. Thanks.
