The rats are coming in off the field in winter and burrowing under the walls at the back of my house. They are not getting inside but I can hear them in the wall. My cats manage to get some of them but not all.

I have a lot of work to be done in my home involving drywall because large windows were sized down... recently a leak in the kitchen with mold growing caused a ceiling issue too... I bleached away the mold but the paint peeled back because someone had used two different paints (oil/water)...I think that spot needs to be cut out/replaced then I was going to peel all the other paint off of the ceiling... no more leaking--someone re-caulked things with roofing tar... but someone suggests just slapping new drywall on top of the existing ceiling drywall creating a whole new kitchen ceiling when re-walling the rest of the kitchen.... how will i ever know if there is a leak there again... this leak was apparently there for awhile before it was noticed because the paint cracked a bit, then i peeled it back and found the mold and wetness...there was no dripping... someone else said that doing this method can cause sweating between the two walls, like if done on walls instead of tear down...--??

was blown out. The burners worked fine. Repair man said if I had not had warranty, that the cost would have been $200 or more. How do I prevent this from happening in future? Is hard to move stove out and pull plug during storm. What a rip these new computerized appliances are.

If a neighbours tree is seriously overhanging your boundary, blocking light and battering off my windows in winds. Who is responsible for paying for the tree to be cut back? Can he refuse to allow the tree to be cut.

How long should I wait? Do I turn the system off for a period of time then try again. We have been having electrical storms and a large portion of the grid went out twice. The AC stopped performing after the first power outtage and the "wait" indicator came on the thermostat. After about 4 hours, I turned the unit back on and it functioned properly, cooling the house. Then the power went out again for several hours. I turned the system off when the power returned and left it off over night, thinking it would come back up in the morning. But, it has since maintained the "Wait" message. Any advice on how to remedy before calling a tech would be most appreciated.

We live in a townhouse and our central air is no longer working. We replaced the thermostat a little over a month ago and it worked again, but now it has stopped. The house fan will run, but when I set it to "cool" you hear a buzzing noise and the lights in my kitchen flash. There is no sound from the unit outside at all. It looks like an older unit. It's 8am and it's over 85 degrees in my place!

We went out for dinner, came home, and our central air conditioning system was not working. No breakers were tripped. The diagnostic lights on the compressor are blinking normal. I thought maybe it was the fuses on the condenser. Ran to Home Depot and changed those, and that doesn't seem to be the problem.

If we turn the system to cool, the fan comes on, and it seems like it's trying to kick the condenser over (the lights dim a little in the house), but it's just not going.

Any thoughts? Please help, it's HOT.
