Maintenance & Repairs - July 2006

These are tiny black hoses about 3 milimeter thick. There are hundreds of them. The whole thing looks like a mat on top of the roof. I tried sealing it with plummer tape, electrical tape. Home Depot told me that it doesn't do any good. The solar company I contacted wants to charge 115 bucks to fix that tiny hole.

I am debating whether to spend either $800 on a radiant heat barrier or $1,200 on additional attic insulation. I am told that my current attic insulation is only 4 inches thick and it is a two story home. I have two power attic fans installed. Which product gives the most bang for the buck?

They have no hook up for their dirty water or waste.I am sick of all the trash and junk in the frount yard,every mornning I see rats running on the phone lines and they stop to get into ther yard. They also have five dogs and three cats they do not clean up the yard ,we have even seen them water down the dogs waste and with this heat it is very bad. We have been very nice asking them to please get this under control.The dogs have even been out more times than we can count and use our yard as theres....Barking all hours even with them there.The mess in the yard the waste its to much.I believe ther thoughts were to re model but I don't think its even being done lawful like they haven't even been working on it for some time.

I share a back yard fence with my neighbor. He wants me to pay for half of replacement, even though I have the back side face of the fence. Replacement is due to age, not damage by either party.

...WITHOUT turning off my freezer, increasing the temperature, ruining it, or buying a new one? (Well, you all know what I mean here!!) I can't stand it anymore... I must clean my freezer once a week while my other friends don't have that kind of problem with their own freezer! :(

BTW, what is those FROST actually? Could we eat those FROST? Is it dangerous?

I have a cream color leather couch. But due to less maintainence, it is now turing into a light brown in only certain place like where we sit and put our feet. The back where we lean is still cream color. So it is getting more of dual color. I see a lot leather maintainence stuff in the market but nothing to clean and remove those stains...Any suggestions?
