I have a brick walkway/patio that is in dire need of repair. They have either been raised by tree roots or have sunk because of erosion or perhaps ant nests.

I need to replace my current roof. My roof is a flat type roof and I was wondering which type of roofing I should replace it with? Should I use the modified bitumen or the built in roofing with tar/gravel. Which type would last the longest and easy to maintain? I've been experiencing some leaks and molding in the house and the roof is in bad condition.

I just closed on my home on June 23rd. I had a home inspection done prior and flooding did not appear to be an issue. Two days ago, there were some pretty heavy rainfalls and the next morning, the back portion of the basement had about 1-2 in of water. Someone told me that this should have been disclosed and I have legal recourse. Is this true? This property was an estate sale and I signed that I agreed to take on all repairs. What to do?

I was told to clean the sensors to make sure dirt wasnt blocking transmission and i did it. I was told the sunlight could blanch the beam and to move the sensors back away from the door and that didnt work. When the door is closed the red light indicates it is receiving transmission however it occasionally flickers. When the door is open the red light goes off completely with occasional flickers. Could this mean I have bad sensors? The garage door opener is approx. 3 years old and has never closed during the day without a manual override. Thanks for you help!!!

There is a huge space underneath my front door. Not only can you tell if someone is home because light is visible and shadow of people walking past the door can be seen if you're walking towards the door, but a huge draft also comes under the door. What can I do to fix this problem? Is there something I can attach to the bottom of the door to get rid of that extra space?Thanks

A condo I recently moved into was painted a few months prior. The paint job isn't the greatest, and each time I open and close the doors, it makes a loud sound, or it doesn't close easily. What would cause this? I'm assuming it has something to do with the paint job. Also, it looks like flat latex paint was used throughout the entire condo. Isn't that strange? Already the paint is flaking. Thanks

Is it just called the outer edge of tub or is there a specific name? It's the top portion that goes from one end of the wall to the other. That part has chipped porcelain and I need to call around for ideas on how to fix it, but I'm not sure what to call that part when I speak to people.Thanks

How can I fill the cracks with a plyable weather proof material (inexpensive hopefully) that form between my house foundation and concrete sidewalk?

My parents toilet is really hard to flush, you have to pump the handle 10 - 15 times in fast sucsession in order to build up enough momento for it to enventually kick into gear. If you just flush once it does nothing at all. Any ides.

Replacing my 30 gal water heater - which is in a wall space not much wider than the heater. Floor is not great from past water heater leaks, and I do not want to replace it right now - though I MUST prevent further damage. Only drip tray (For under the water heater to catch leaks) I can find is HUGE and won't fit in the space. Heater is 19 in in diameter. Can anyone help?

The white paint on the drywall has bubbled up and peeled off over the last 12 months. The paint is probably 4 or 5 coats thick and is above a vent in my house. Has anyone else had a problem like this?
