Ok. Do we need a separate forum? I can see these questions having multiple inputs. My first one will be on tiling a bathroom floor and fixing a basin on a pedestal, please !

Interesting. I have worked as a carpenter for close to 30 years. Mind if I read along?

I moved to another country, with complete different building style and standards, I am completly lost in how to proper msntain my current house XD.
In Brazil, houses are made to resist heavy rain and to be fresh and aired. In Norway, the objective is warm and insulated

Please do! I live in an 1840s railway masters house with no straight lines and lots of crumbly bits. OH has no head for what we term 'bricolage'. You would seriously take queries? I so need that. Everyone here wants to quote for a job, not tell you how to do it.

I do most of my own home repairs, but admit to watching several home improvement YouTube videos first, to make sure I understand what I'm doing. None of them mention God, so that's good. Thanks for offering your advice for those of us who might need it.

This is a great idea !

Thanks I might take ya up on that. I've been restoring my childhood home n I've still got a lot to do. In lieu of a group about home improvement in general I know we have a group about restoring particularly old houses here. If you don't want to start a group I suggest maybe we can post in there about it? Called these old houses I think.

If you do want to start a group I suggest it be broad, for all sorts of repairs, country living and homesteading tips, n everyone with a specialty could pitch in. Home improvement, plumbing, electrical, garden, talk about tools n materials. We might be able to create a lowes of information lol. Id also really like to get into and talk about wood working and fabrication with metal, like caste smelting and hammer forging knives n steel bladed tools. I gotta finish gettin this garage cleaned out and restore/improvise some tools before I can get into all that though.

Are you starting a group?

Smart to recognize what your areas of expertise are (and aren’t!) ?
