Does anyone have experience with these triple filter reverse osmosis units? ( lemmy.world )

It’s leaking right where the arrow is pointing. It only leaks when it’s refilling the tank after each use. The two outside carbon filters were new in March but the middle (reverse osmosis) filter is probably a year or more older. I’m hoping it just needs a new RO filter and that it’s only leaking because it’s clogged....

Backyard structure fix up ( lemmy.world )

I have a small barn like structure on the back of my property that I have started fixing up. Previous owners have done stuff to it as well and I came across this part in the loft. As can be seen in the pictures this light shining through into the inside from the soffit/facia, if that’s what it would be in this scenario....

Polymeric sand in cold weather! Creative solutions to helping it cure? ( lemmy.world )

Old Wallpaper Matching? ( iusearchlinux.fyi )

Ill include a few pics of the in between in the comments, but this is my kitchen finally completed. I rehabbed some used cabinets and built a good bit of them from scratch as well as the cabinet doors. This is my first...

Need help understanding my situation about vents and ducts ( lemmy.world )

First time home owner here. I stuck these vent deflectors a month ago on one of our vents and I removed it today for some other reason. I noticed these stains that looked like water stains but I think it’s actually something that is growing - maybe unfortunately mold or something. I need help in understanding this situation...

Help repairing crumbling steps ( lemmy.world )

I’m not sure what material or style these steps are, but they’ve started crumbling after water got into a crack and froze during the winter. It seems to be getting worse and I’m wondering how to address it. Is this something that can be patched or do I need to remove all this material and start over?
