I have a steel exterior (front) door and over the years, it has the equivalent of a couple of door dings similar to those you get on car doors…. Not bad, but my Wife wants to go from white to a dark plum color, which may make the dings more noticeable… Anyway- it’s time for a fresh coat of...

So last Spring, I had some pergo flooring installed in the entrance way. Yesterday, while I was bringing in wood for the fireplace, I accidentally dropped one of the pieces of wood, and it basically dented the floor. Is there any way to repair this? I don’t think I can use wood filler since...

Not sure what’s going on here, but I went to put a battery in a tool, and it was dead. then I noticed the charging light was not on the base of the charger ….. and yes, I did put it on another outlet overnight that I know for sure works, and- nothing. How would I check and see if it’s the...

I have a Regency Fireplace insert - awesome for our Condo - I’ve had it around 12 years. Sometimes, a fire log will shift forward and basically lean against the glass pane. Over time, it has ”etched” (for lack of a better word) a spot in the glass. Is there anything I can do to clear that...

Been working on my garage for a couple of years, doing a little bit each time ... still plenty left to do. Not as fancy as some, but it's mine and it works fine for me ;) Dry wall up and currently just painted the slant wall and ceiling with KILZ because I had a couple of buckets from...

I have a motorized garage door opener I bought from Sears - 16 years ago (geeesh, has it been that long already ?) .... Craftsman model. Besides the hand held remote like you might keep in your car, it also has a battery powered switch to open and close - mounted just outside the door. I'm...

Sorry, this is a little O/T, but it's still kinda sorta a flooring question ... so here goes: My Mother in Law is getting -well- older .... and in her Master Bedroom, she has a 3/4 bathroom (sink / toilet / shower only) She's concerned about slipping in there - I installed a grab bar...

Finishing up some drywall work on the garage walls - and when the times come to paint, I was hoping to have some light kinda textured look Not the "pulled" look, not necessarily the "popcorn" finish - maybe something close to the "orange peel" look. I know you can get different effects from a...

First off I'll say - up to just recently, I've never really worked with drywall at all (ok, a couple of small patches, but that hardly counts) Put sheets of drywall up in the garage, and instead of using mud and tape, then sanding, I found some stuff called "Fibatape" It's roughly the size of...

I could use some brand name ideas for a nice outdoor motion detector light for my driveway. I tried a couple from HD (Defiant was the brand name) and they were total **** .... (cheaply made) Prefer an LED light - must be motion detector kind, I don't want the dusk to dawn kinda setup. What do...

Getting different stories on dry times, so I'll throw out this question here. I'm considering resurfacing the concrete garage floor with some Quikrete self leveling concrete. Here's a couple of questions I have: As far as prep work goes (besides a thorough cleaning), do I need to smooth out...

Im sure plenty of others have tried "Kilz" in the past- I used it today ("Kilz Complete" to be exact), and very happy with the results. They built our place in '79, and the drywall in the garage has never been painted ... like- at all ... Apparently at one time, the roof must have leaked in...

I've been thinking about building my own workbench I'm 6'2", so I'll figure out what height is right for me, but I noticed, if you were to go an buy the top to a workbench, they come in several different sizes, and I was thinking about making my own. Ever come across a project and wish...
