We moved into a house with a dishwasher but hadn't used it for nearly a year and a half. Then, when we gave it a try, the water inside did not drain. Could this be related to our new garbage disposal unit that was installed more recently?

Im in Ireland and am having a new water tank installed in my bathroom. Nothing high powered, just a cylindrical tank. I dont know the first thing about what this should cost. There wont be any lifting of fllorboards or going up into attics or anything. Anybody out there who can give me a realistic estimate? Thanks

The airbed is a few years old and I wonder if it has been over inflated. What can one do with it if not repairable. How would you recycle it?

Hi all Singapore HDB owners: I am staying in a HDB unit with living room and most rooms having windows facing NW. All of the windows are sliding type and knowing that wind usually blow from North or South.

Anyone know or hav experience by changing the sliding windows to casement windows (those push out ones) can help to direct the wind into the rooms?

Or is there other ways to make my unit more windy as the air is very still... (not using fan or aircon thou).

I just set-up a new walk-behind mower and before I could put the pull cord in the guide loop, the cord locked and won't move. I reconnected the brake release lever, but it still wont move.

I'm in trouble! My tank in my bathroom has sprung a leak. Its 4 .15am on Sat morning. My partners at work so cant help me. could a plumber tell me what to do? This is an old house-56 yrs- and the original water tank is still in it. It is a triangular tank in the corner of the bathroom. The water in this is heated by a backboiler in the fire downstairs-there is no immersion heater. I turned on the tap and tried to run the water out of the tank but its being filled by the cold water mains supply. Theres a tap or a key or a faucet, whatever you call it, under the stairs on the water pipe. It wont budge for me so I dont know do I turn it clockwise or anticlockwise? Its so stiff I'll have to hit it with the hammer and if I hit it the wrong way I'll b in worse trouble. Does anyone know which way it should turn? Are these things universal or do they differ from country to country? Im in Ireland. I have the cold tap running downstairs to stop the tank gettin too full or should It b upstar

I need to know how to repair a leaky shower. I have a single handle shower and have recently had it replaced and now the shower leaks worse than ever. My plumber said he needed to tear out the wall and replace something behind the wall. Of course, big bucks. I fear that he looked at me and thought- stupid woman, nice house- big bucks.... help!
