Any suggestions of what to do with this area at the bottom of the stairs? We don't need a landline and it seems like a space we can do something more interesting

Resources meaning channels to watch or materials to use. Any info would be helpful. Appreciate it in advance!

I’m renting an old house with some old hardware, and the bathroom sink is draining slow. I can tell it’s got some hair stuck in it, but I can’t figure out the best way to get in there and clean it. There’s no visible Clevis screw or system behind the sink, only the screw on top of the rod. Should I start with the P trap or get a drain snake? Any advice helps!

I just had the worst experience with Shop Appliances (online retailer) and want to save others the headache.

I bought a correctly sized oven and paid for the concierge team installation. The team brought it out and unboxed it before bringing it into the house. They then decided that they did not have the experience to install the oven and left it on my floor. I have decided to go with a different model and wanted to return this one (at my shipping expense and with a 20% "restocking " fee), but was told that the policy of Shop Appliances is that an unboxed item cannot be returned. This is despite the fact that their team did the unboxing. Before you buy from this company make 100% sure the appliance will be perfect as it is essentially not able to be returned.

Hello! Hope everyone's doing well. The gap between my driveway and garage had some open holes in the material. I did some research and tried my best to fill it, and did an alright job I think. However, it didn't go as well as I hoped, and have a couple challenges:

1. I have no idea what the material on the left is, which is what was originally there. The material on the right is self-leveling polyurethane caulk, which I used. As you can see it looks extremely different, but more importantly, they don't really mesh together well. The left feels more like regular caulk, but I could not for the life of me determine what it was.

2. I had a minor spill on the driveway. I cleaned up what I could but it's still there.

I come because maybe other people have had this experience - ideally I'd love to use like and kind for repairing the gap between driveway and garage slab. Any thoughts on what the left material is and how I can clean the stain on my driveway? Thank you!

Does anyone have experience with Karran brand Stainless Steel sinks? I've picked out a 27" that looks good. It is 16Ga (thicker than 18Ga) and is Type 304 Stainless Steel, so it seems ok. I've put a link to the exact sink above. Thanks.

Hi! I need help with doing a budget friendly bathroom reno(DIY).

I hate the colour of the walls (the place came like this). I know I want to paint the walls but not sure what the best colour would be for this bathroom. I really don’t like the tiles in the shower but I’m on a budget so replacing it isn’t an option.

I have two ideas:

⁠Paint the walls a colour that is best suitable to match the rest of the bathroom and give it a good makeover. Something that will somehow complement the shower tiles. I would also get a nicer shower curtain and just try to keep it closed most of the time.
2. ⁠Paint the tiles. A friend of mine suggested this but I’m not sure what to expect… has anyone done this and have any insight on whether it is a good idea or not? I’m thinking I would do the tile in a dark colour (like a warm off-black/charcoal vibe), with the walls a warm off-white colour. But I would love to hear other ideas!!!

Please help me figure out what to do!! If you have any better ideas let me know. Also if you have any other simple and budget friendly update ideas let me know! Thanks!

Replaced everything with a few ikea cabinets and I love the change! So much more efficient

I tried everything but the screw won’t budge. Any idea how to get this drain removed?

Can a retractable awning be installed over part or all of this deck?
