    Do I need to change the tyres

    Last year MOT was in July, had advisory that tyres had cracks. Same as told in Dec when I had service. Other parts of the tyres look OK, no wall damage. One mechanic said reason for car vibrating around 65mph could be because of uneven tyres.

    Old internal doors, touching floor

    We have few internal doors that are old and they scratch the floor. I tightened the hinges couple of times to fix the problem temporarily. But after few days they comedown. I see splits near hinges, so do the doors need replacing or is there a way to fix them. Thank you

    Unable to close UPVC window

    I used 3 in 1 lubricant already but it didn't help. If the metal part slots into that green plastic thing I could close it but at the moment it is going outside by few millimeter. This window is upstairs so would need scaffolding to secure the frame? I don't think I can do it from inside.
