10 year old Ceramic Tile floor popping up..Help!
Comments (11)Ceramic tile is known to do stuff like this (tenting) because it is slightly porous. Porcelain tile has LESS chance of tenting because its porosity is extremely low - almost impervious to moisture. It is much lower than ceramic. And yes, it can take as much as 10 years for a "bad" install to show itself in wet conditions. It can take that long to get the tile so wet that it's expansion is so great it breaks the bond of the adhesive. And yes...cut back adhesive is a poor substrate to bond to (for the Original Poster). Both of these photos (OP and andreadell79) are complete redos. Once a section starts to tent, you have to assume the WHOLE THING is going to go to he!! in a hand basket. Sorry but these are complete redos....See MoreNeed help pruning and repotting 10+ year old Jade Plant
Comments (16)They are, I think, called "bulb" pots - or somehing similar. I have some plastic ones too, I buy them if I see any as they are not sold as often as regular pots. There are many others made of resin, plasic and similar materials - I prefer those since they are not as heavy...that may not bother you :) I bought pot in the photo just week ago in Rona for just under $6 (in Canada). I have seen even nicer pots in Garden centre, but they are more expensive if that is important to you. They had many different types, just do not buy one with recurved top (like a fish bowl) - it is difficult to remove plants from those. If there are no drainage holes, I always drill some. I never used BJ mix, but some ppl mentioned that it was still bit water-retaining. Easy way to solve that is to add sifted perlite, or pumice if you have some. Old soil could be caked on, but you mentioned plant was in drainless pot and wet. Dry soil (or mostly dry) usually crumbles off; if it contains lots of peat it could be more hard. You may loose some roots when removing soil, but it shouldn't be much of problem. Better fewer healhy roots than many mushy. And jade will root very easy and fast, as long as they are not kept too wet....See MoreFinishing touches to a 10 year old’s bedroom
Comments (43)@Olychick- I tried it over there but bc the desk is higher than the other nightstand , it looked weird to have the higher piece closer to the door Where you walk in and the lower piece farther away...so I switched it . Its a small room so I feel like the desk should go back to its original position. High Shelves in place of the desk will put way too much furniture in a small room . But honestly - design isnt my thing...See MoreHELP! Sharing a room with my 13 & 10 year old daughters!!!
Comments (4)can you sketch up a rough floorplan? we can't make many suggestions without that. off the top of my head: I would turn the bunkbed so it's against the TV wall. then switch where your bed and desk are. after that, squeeze all of the smaller furniture in wherever it makes sense. then declutter, which will majorly help you just feel better in the space. it looks like there's some stuff that doesn't necessarily need to be in a bedroom. such as that small table with first aid (or vitamins)? and the skates and cleaning supplies? can any of that stuff go somewhere else in the house? is there stuff being stored under the bunkbed that belongs to your parents? move it out so your kids stuff can be stored there. for privacy, is there any way you can DIY a privacy curtain or get somebody to help you with that? it could be accomplished with curtain wires like this, plus some cheap bedsheets or cheap curtains found on amazon. just make sure they're not too heavy. if it's pretty long, you might need to add a support in the middle of the wire with a hook screwed into the ceiling. or check amazon for privacy screens. some of them are really cheap. not beautiful and they don't get stellar reviews, but could work as a temporary solution.this one is only $57:...See Moreamygdala
