Where you unhooked the hose from the pipe is where you are going to put the new shutoff valve. If those fittings are 1/2 inch you get a valve with 1/2 inch ends remembering that one end screws onto the pipe and the other end the hose screws onto it. You should probably go to the nearest Home-depot ect,,as you will probably go back to get the right part so when you take the first part out of the packaging be carefull not to ruin it too bad cuz you want to take it back and have it look half way decent. Good luck
Lets try and talk him outta having a hot water heater and then it should be an easy fix!! Hook-er up and go
It would seem to me that the lines that have been empty for the last three years have toi fill with water before you get any water out of your upstairs faucet. The new water comming in when you turn back on the water has to push out the air in the lines. Just turn on your faucets and turn on the water main. You should hear air being pushed out of the lines by the following water..Three years of nonuse you may have rust and junk built up in your lines blcoking flow of water at the little screen at your faucets too.
About all you can do is position the headboard so the leg ends rest on the floor when you tighten the bolts down.
The very first thing I would do is turn off the water to the bathroom and then clean up the hallway. Then I would go turn on the water to the bathroom and wait awhile to see if puddle came back. If it didn’t I would run the bath for a while and check floor again –no water –try running the sink. Ill bet you will find a broken pipe fitting or leak in drain. Good luck
I can just see Grandpa going to get the yardstick to use for shimms. he would cut strips of yardstick to fit…and ya know maybe ol grandpa wasn’t so dumb afterall!!!!
cut the repair pcs of carpet to fit with the grain going the same way. You may have to go to a carpet store and rent a carpet iron and buy some carpet seam tape. Cut the tape to fit the seams and heat the iron and glide the iron alnog the tape between the tape and carpet Sa the cglue on the tape melts position the carpet in place. The people at the carpet store will tell you and show you how to do it. Good luck.but just take your time to get a good fit and seam that no-one will see
clean the connections to the starter,and make sure they are tight also you may find a blown fuse somewhere along the line.. Might wanna make sure the mower blade isnt in gear as that won’t let it start. My neighbor guy called the serviceman for his mower just for that hahaha.
I would use the “knee banger”as you say total is 300 sq ft and half is secure so that leaves half or maybe a strech 10 by 15. I certainly wouldnt get out the old carpet streacher for that job.
i keep a flex magnet in my tool box..aIt is a small mag hooked to a two foot flwx cord. Just for those things….but ya I wouldnt think it would cause too much trtoube as most things you flush will be alot bigger than that!!!!hehehhe
You can probably take a broadknife used in drywall and just scrape it off. Alot of times it was put on to hide imperfections in the celing so be prepared to maybe even drywall over it anyway.
If its anykind of duraflake or melamene you may kiss it good-by.. I work with that crap at work and its the cheapest of the cheap but they sell a ton of it. You may sell it once but most people won’t buy it again. Too bad managment doesn’t see the light!!but oh-well. They still can’t figure why sales are down..See there you gave me a big mad on now –hahah
