HOW TO OBTAIN

eo

Isn't there some way to keep ‘the outside of the tank from becoming so wet all the time

ANSWER: There are, in fact, several ways. The trouble is the cold water entering the tank, makes it so cold that when~ the warm, humid bathroom air strikes it, the humidity conden- ses. If you can either-make the tank itself warm, or if you can insulate it from the air,. the sweating will stop.

A plumber can install a simple Y-shaped valve which will ad- mit a little warm water with

LEAKY LAUNDRY TUB

QUESTION: — My. basement laun tub of concrete has de- veloped a leak through a crack in the bottom. Can this be fixed at home -

ANSWER: This may sound a bit uiiorthodox, but*it’s as ef- fective as it is simple: Mix up enough of that epoky adhesive which comes in two tubes to fill generously the entire length of the crack, - Once this hardens in there, this crack won’t even leak again. At least, that’s what my experience with this adhesive would lead me to believe. First, however, thoroughly scour off all traces of grease ‘or soap. Otherwise, the’ adhesive won't

NOT.FIRM FLOOR | QUESTION: Last summer we bought a cottage up in the moun-

weekends. We have notic- ed that the living room floor -seems to give a little every one of us walks on #. How can this be strengthened There is a three-foot crawl space under the entire building.

ANSWER: It’s quite possible that all it needs. is additional bracing between floor beams (also known as_cross-bridging). This is merely fastening diagon- al lengths of 2 by 4’s at inter- vals between tre beams, This will add: great rigidity; possibly all that’s needed. At least don’t go to the trouble and ex-

pense of adjustable metal pos or adding. more beams un you see if cross-bridging

Regardless of what type . paint we -put on, it cracks. Someone suggested that it might be be- cause. the paint was put on over calcimine. Another thought it might be v ibration from near- 7 heavy traffic. ee

I don’t care what it is: I just want to know how to keep those ceilings from looking | like a maze of cracks. ;

ANSWER: If you don't want to go to the trouble of sremov- ing all coats of paint and what- ever else may be on the plaster, and I don’t blame you! Let me suggest that great crack-rider, called ‘painter’s cloth. It’s ‘a

very light canvas. Applied like wallpaper, availabe where wall- paper is sod, It can be painted, or even papered. (Note:._ All correspondence relating to home maintenance should be addressed to: Ro-
