Is there any "special" technique that can limit this mess? I always seem to manage to get paint all over myself and nearby carpet / soft furnishings etc.! What is the best sheeting to put down to protect carpets etc.? Thanks, in advance.

I'm thinking of adding an extension to my house. Before I do I need to get a guesstimate of the cost. Does anyone know the price per square foot I need to work on for a block and render extension?

I'm moving into my new place next week and I'll be searching for a bedroom set. Is there anything I should know about whats good and what isn't? I want quality, but I don't want to spend a fortune. I'm a 20 year old college student. I like the beds that sit closer to the ground, but I'm not sure about the quality on those. Hopefully you guys/gals can help me out.

We have a pool house and I want to turn it into a hangout/party room. So I can have a place to hangout with my friends over the summer. I want to know what should be in the room. It is a fairly large space. We have a game table, tv, couch, bathrooms, and even a small kitchen. But its feels kinda empty, Like what kind of decorations should there be?

We bought a house and the master suite faces the patio. I want to put a sliding door in it, since our very old dog sleeps in this room and forever needs to go out in the middle of the night. He has to walk down a hallway, past the dining room, through the kitchen and the family room to go out the only door to the back yard. He falls a lot!

And if I did not want it exactly where the window is would this be more?


Thanks!

I'm a 13 year old girl and I'm moving soon and I'm painting my new room. Right now it is white with one green wall. I don't know what color to paint it, no pink though.

The new surface would then be painted over with a Matte Enamel Acryllic Latex Paint. The reason I would like to apply joint compound is that the original wall has a poor texture finish under the semi gloss paint job.

How can you tell when you look at a home that is for sale and you like it, but think you can change the rooms a bit by moving a couple of wall, how can one that is not a contractor tell. Getting a contractor in takes time, and extra money just to tell the basics.

Saw some lovely tiles for sunroom today. One lot is Porcelain and the other Marble. Which is most hard wearing? I would have to wait 6-8 weeks for delivery of the marble, would it be worth waiting for or would the sunroom be just as nice with the porcelain. Both tiles look very similar to each other so quality would probably sway my judgement.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I have two small bathrooms with wainscoating (SP?) and I'd like to redo them. I'd like to leave the wainscoating - I plan on painting that white- but how should I paint the walls? Any ideas? I'm open to all colors, but I'd like to make the bathroom seem more open and clean looking.

We have been told to put in new carpet and paint. But I feel like a paint and carpet allowance would be better to let the new owner make those decisions. We have no money to do renovations. Please help me out.
