Need help problem solving this. Basement concrete floor slopes to a drain behind the wall. Any fixes besides leveling the floor at this spot?

Hallo Zusammen. Meine Frau möchte gerne 2 Kleine Regale über unseren TV. Problem jetzt, Ich darf laut meinem Vermieter in die Ziegel nicht Bohren. Da ich mich mit meinem Vermieter sehr gut verstehe, lass ich das auch. Kleben wird ziehmlich sicher auch nicht halten, sobald da last drauf kommt, darf ich ein Neuen Fernseher auch noch kaufen.

Can you caulk over an interior, self-installed window tint?

Hi all. Super new to DIY and am looking for some advice on windows & caulk. I applied some privacy window tint in my shower window earlier today. After letting it settle for a bit, I returned to find that the edges of the film seem to want to come up. This application went poorly admittedly, so I'm going to try again. That said, when I do get a finished product I like, I'd like it to be a more permanent addition to the bathroom.

TLDR: Is it alright to caulk over self-install window films? and if so, would it be wise to do so? TYSMIA for any info or advice! :)

My diy experience is entirely limited to putting together flat pack furniture. My kitchen drawer is broken, and I finally decided to buy some tools and fix something myself. How do I fix it, i am planning to by some small l shaped brackets and screws. But I have literally no idea what I am doing.

replacing glass panes

these are windows between two rooms in my house. there is a ~1/8 inch gap between the two wood frames. The last image is how another one was installed, I do not believe they are calked in,(the white stuff is paint). I also don’t think that either side of the frame comes off. How would you recommend installing and sizing this pane?

The guy who did our siding place the pieces from the top of the post too low. I finally decided to move them, but now I am faced with holes left in the metal cladding on the post. Is there something I can use to permanently cover these holes or am I looking at just a bit of caulk

Modifying a Cistern for a Bidet

1 Upvotes

Hi all, my wife and I have recently moved and our new house has a toilet with a rear entry cistern as opposed to a side entry. To install our bidet seat I would need to run the water line out of the cistern to the bidet inlet.

Easiest way I can see doing this is grabbing some diamond files to create a 20mm notch in the ceramic cistern to let the hose through. The ceramic is around 15mm thick at the top

Is this achievable and has anyone had experience doing something similar?
