I was standing right there beside the door of our home and I felt some kind of draught (draft). I told my husband about it who was busy watching the HGTV about couples who are into business of doing renovation for old houses they purchased and turned them into almost brand new houses and made huge profit. Nice!
My husband knew all about it but he was busy with his work before and because I remind him of such draft now he's there (photo of him) unscrewing the old bottom door sealer. He replaced it with new bottom door seal that doesn't need any screw. This new bottom seal can be installed by sliding it at the bottom of the door. There are three easy steps:
1. Measure the width of the bottom door.
2.Cut the door seal to length with a hacksaw.
3.Slide the door seal under the base of the door with the taller seal-side facing inside.
Easy. Now look at it without screw! It fits perfectly to the bottom of the door and no more draft. That would lessen cold air passing through saving energy during winter.
Next? The house has some dings and spots that need some kind of filling. First, the wall that has been mounted and glued with a mirror left a "scar on the wall" when the mirror was pulled away. Mirror owned by the former tenant. I didn't even photograph the mess on the wall because the mirror got broken.
The wall was already been fixed using this formula. My husband is such a professional when it comes to this kind of work.
Easi-fil Dust Away is the best solution for any problems on your wall. For filling, repair, finishing any dry wall joints, trims and fasteners, EASI-FIL is the right product for such work that needs to be done according to your taste and perfect sense. Holes away from the walls.
Old holes for old blinds spotted on? Holes away from the wall. Easi-fil does it better. Then painted the wall and it's great that the paint color he bought is the same as the original color of the wall. What a spot on! We replaced the blinds with a blackout curtain and bought a new sturdy curtain rod.
My husband is thinking of re-painting the kitchen walls, I don't know when he will start with it. Then the big project of replacing the lino floor into favorable floor tiles and white granite counter tops and gorgeous kitchen cabinets plus the modern design backsplash or moroccan tile backsplash hmmm... Ha ha! I'm dreaming!!!!!
I'm glad my husband is a handyman and a carpenter. To call a carpenter to do this kind of work? You will have to pay $50/hour (contract) (house call, right immediate fixing probably $75) depends on the kind of work imposed and materials to be installed or fixed.
