Ok. I have done a little bit of research, but I wanted to see if anyone could help me further. I live in an apartment complex and the management there does a very poor job. It snowed a few weeks back and because they never cleared off the origional snow it has since melted and turned into ice on both the sidewalk and the parking lot. I have slipped on the ice as well as have gotten my vehichle stuck more than once there. I have gone to the management, but they have done nothing but ignore my complaint. Is there anything that I can do to Make them clear the situation? It has gotten way out of hand. Thanks for any help you can provide.

I have been using an upright kerosene heater. Due to the warm weather here in NC, I have not had a chance to crank it up. But I have recently purchased a new flat top kerosene heater. I have some left over kerosene from last winter and was wondering if it would alright to use the kerosene that I have on hand or would it be prudent to go and get some new or have some new mixed in with the old?

I would like some answers ASAP for a winter storm warning is in effect for tomorrow in my area. Thank you all.

We moved into my house a little over a year ago (without a home inspection) and we have never used my fireplace. Do we need to have it professionally inspected or should it be safe to use?

I recently took down a small half wall that had 2 outlets. I capped the wires to the one outlet and pushed it down into the crawlspace since we didn't need it. The other outlet was moved to the outer wall. This setup only had one black, one white and one copper wire. It seems to work fine, but I noticed that the other outlets in my house have 2 black and 2 white. Do I have a problem? Also, what about the outlet that I am not using? Is it okay that I just capped the wires with wire screws? Thanks, Karie

We recently painted our concrete porch floor with a tinted Epoxy paint that was meant for high traffic garage floors. I then painted the ceiling with a flat latex ceiling paint. I wasn't being very careful and there is now white ceiling paint all over my blue porch floor.
I assumed I could scrub the white paint off with regular soap and water, but it's not working!
What can I use to remove the white paint without scuffing, scratching, or removing the porch floor paint?

This morning it was 8 degrees outside and the room with the water heater was warm and we had plenty of hot water. Last week it was 40 in the morning and the room with the water heater was warm and there wasn't much hot water. What gives?

I think I need to contact a foundation repair company to do this but I"m just curious what is the band sill and what function does it perform. A few contractors I called were ready to come out and then I said it was the band sill and they said oh no we won't do that. So what's the deal is it a risky repair?

The problem has occurred with increased frequency over the last 2-3 weeks, and seems to coincide with either someone taking a shower in one of the upstairs bathrooms, or when the washing machine is used. The washing machine is on the same level as the toilet in question, about 10-15 feet away. Only one of the upstairs showers seems to trigger the over-flowing. Please help!
