Home Improvement Riddle?

Friday, May 23rd, 2008
Woody asked:


I have a wiring issue to resolve. There is a bank of 3 light switches in my garage- one turns on a single light inside the shed out back. The problem is the shed has no windows and the door faces away from the house so there is no way of knowing if the light is on or off without walking all the way down there to see. I have time to run down there once- is there a way I can walk down there and know which switch is the right one upon returning to the garage? If so, how?
2 of the 3 switches do absolutely nothing (did I mention this was a fixer-upper?)

Home improvement unlicensed contractor?

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008
tigger13015 asked:


When we hired a contractor to do our work he said they were licensed and fully insured. Everytime I ask them to do something I’m being challenged or it doesn;t get done. It’s been difficult to deal with the contractor. I was pissed that I researched and found out they are not licensed. The work’s almost complete except for 1 thing and probably 2 other minor things. What should I do?
btw im from ny. you think telling them to leave and the problem would go away? they want to collect.
addition: we paid some but not final payment because they are not finished. We signed a contract under the impression they are licensed and they are not. I called the city and they said the contractor should not be working. He has applied for license but not official yet. The thing is this, they were sloppy, we have roof bits around the perimeter of the house because they couldn’t be bothered to use tarp. Then they argued with us when we asked to fix a step that was not leveled. They just recently fixed it. This what I mean when I say they challenge us.

A few random home improvement questions involving doorbells, mailboxes, etc?

Saturday, May 3rd, 2008
afraidtoland asked:


I’m building a stucco security fence in front of my house and I need a doorbell that can be put at the fence entry and ring inside the house? Any recommendations?

Does anyone know of a mailbox that can be built into the fence that can hold large packages? I’m thinking of something where the postman would open the mailbox door (outside the fence) and drop a package/mail inside, and it would fall into a container or something that I could access from inside the fence…

Also, is it terribly complex/difficult to get a keypad entry to the gate?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

OK Home improvement enthusiasts, I’ve stripped the wallpaper?

Friday, May 2nd, 2008
locofoco asked:


scrubbed the walls with DIF and I’m ready to start spackling the walls. What is the easiest thing to use on the walls to cover holes, damage to drywall, etc.? Should I use a sealer on the wall before painting? I’m painting the dining area/living room; is it ok to paint it a celery green when the adjoining kitchen is cranberry and cream colored? The kitchen has been remodled. Should I use latex or enamel on DR/LR walls. Should I leave windows and trim natural or paint them? Phew..that’s enough questions for now…

Question about TV show Home Improvement?

Thursday, May 1st, 2008
filthyfish_17 asked:


OK this is completely dumb seeing as how this is just a show but anyhow. I’m looking to see if this makes sense to anyone, as far as the house layout goes, I was watching this and then for whatever reason it popped in my head, but does the floor plan make sense at all? In order for this to work, they use the garage and the front door when they are complete opposite sides of the house. Which is plausible but if they have a straight driveway, and the bus always came for the kids in the very front of the house it doesn’t connect. That means their house in the suburbs is surrounded by two streets? Then even the back yard where the play equipment was is next to their front door technically, I have to watch more to see outside shots but it still seems not right, anyone else notice this?
I like your answer Stern, but the garage opened to the opposite direction of the front door, but I didn’t really think of the corner, but then Wilson is still technically next over not in the back, I have to watch more episodes… I watch too much TV too
