How to prevent the nails of the plaster panels from appearing
The home of an owner was built in 1954 and is tired of seeing the nails outside the plaster panel.
She asks: “How do I solve this? Can I hit the nails again?
First, hitting the nails is just a temporary solution: eventually they will appear again. But the most important question is this: why does it happen?
In a home, there is a lot of movement: coup doors, people walking, etc. All these movements cause vibrations. And, over time, those vibrations will make a nail of plaster panels be removed.
To solve this problem, you must remove the nails and replace them with screws because the plaster panel screws are the best option.
You will not simply want to remove the nail and replace it with a screw before verifying if the nail is in the center of the bolt or near the center. The stallion could be the reason why it is appearing.
Therefore, we recommend taking a hammer and a final nail and touching the plaster panels until the center of the stallion finds.
Once you find the center and take out the nail, then drive one or two plaster panel screws an inch or two on the old nail hole. This will keep it strong.
After replacing the nail with a plaster panel screw, place joint compound On the heads of the screws and in the old nail hole, let it dry, lite it and do it again. Once you fill it and sand, paint it.
The screws will be very good and, hopefully, you will never have to do this process again!

How to raise an outdoor dryer ventilation
The ventilation of a house owner runs on an outer wall and under the brick sheet. It is installed approximately an inch from the ground instead of 12 or more (the recommendation).
He has problems for rainwater to leave, and now he asks: “Do you have any recommendation for me?”
First, it is rare to find a ventilation of dryer so low to the ground. It is possible that when the ventilation was originally installed, it was the correct height of the ground. However, as time passed, classification and landscaping could have been added, and the vent approached the ground.
So that this ventilation of the dryer works efficiently, will want to have a path as short as possible. Therefore, we do not recommend redirecting the current ducts and passing through the software.
On the other hand, we recommend trying to raise or extend the ventilation existing up, or dig the dirt around the vent to give it more space. You can also add a slight turn and elbow to take it off.
Consult your local center for a device that hits 90 degrees, which will help to raise ventilation abroad. There are many dryer ventilation options.
For safety, do not use PVC pipe for an elbow because you cannot handle the high temperatures found through a dryer ventilation.
In addition, be sure to frequently clean the dryer to avoid house fires and keep its dryer working efficiently.

How to solve toilet laundering problems
An owner is struggling to make his toilet rinses completely. She says she has to hold the handle down until the bowl is rinsed.
She wants to know: “Why does this happen and how can I fix it?”
There are two reasons why she may be having this problem. One, there is not enough water in the tank, which means that the water stops before reaching approximately half inch below the overflow tube. That’s where you want to adjust it.
Then you want to make sure that when you push down the handle, the fin remains open to allow the discharge action and then close. If the chain is too short or too long, that will prevent that from happening.
Another reason is an obstruction in the drain. If there is an obstruction, then you will not obtain that rinse action because it resists water.

How to install a road
An owner wants to put an inch room on a tile floor.
He asks: “Do I need to nail or screw it? What use?
No, you won’t want to nail or screw it. You will have to paste it. Investigate a little and find the correct adhesive you need, depending on the materials you are using. Most likely to be on a bucket, and use a flat booth to install the correct amount.
Be sure to read the instructions to make sure the size of the recommended notch plain. Many people do not realize that the size of the notch plain should be correlated with the adhesive to function well.
To make sure there is no movement when placing the floor, use leftover blocks, bricks or heavy objects to weigh it a little. Leave it during the night to dry and really heal.

Easy access garden storage—Mover the people store their grass and garden tools in the garage or shed simply standing and bowing them in the corner. There is nothing particularly bad in this, except that it is a bit messy, and it is difficult to take a tool without knocking another. So, here there is a super simple solution for that problem: take three concrete blocks and fir them wherever you want to store your tools. What you finish is two deep compartments to store long driving tools. The blocks are heavy enough so that you do not have to worry about falling, regardless of how many tools place there. If you don’t have enough head space, you can use two blocks so you can lift the tools. This will give you an orderly place where your tools are out of the way and easily accessible, and you don’t have to worry about falling.
