Do It Yourself (DIY) - August 2006

The eves on our house are currently white, while the siding is green. We've seen other houses where the eves and siding are the same color. Whats' the general rule of thumb? Thanks in advance for any help.

I assumed most of those are around the same size, if someone could please measure the LxWxH for me that'd be extremely helpful, planning a new move in, thanks!

I realise that drinking bleach is not good for you but what damage could you do to yourself if you drank house paint , not water colours but the paint you use on walls.either silk or matt finish ?

I'm fitting the floor in my sons bedroom, the guy in the DIY store talked me through it and sold me what I needed. When I got home and read the fitting kit, it says the boards need to be glued together, but the guy said it didn't. Now I'm confused! Please help.

I sent Black & Decker an e-mail asking this question their answer was very vague. I like to buy British made if possible!

What really is bad (in addition to the 95 degree weather) is that my house is made of metal/aluminum. The sun shines fiercly on my house everyday!I try to use window ACs but they just keep running all day long. What's even stranger... at night, when the outside temp is 80, my indoor temperature is like 90 at 12:00, even with the windows open!!! Is there a better way to cool down my house without running high energy bills?
