    Turps stain/patch on velvet style wallpaper

    I think I`ll leave over night, see how it goes, if bubbles are still there I may take it off again, but then make incisions with a sharp blade and peel back the dry areas in the lining paper, stick back on with some paste, then put a new strip up of paper (again)

    Washing Machine Draining Into Sink

    factors have appointed a drainage company to check the drainage outside, if the problem still persists ofter they have gone, I think I will consider changing the configuration below the sink then to an anti syphon trap. thanks guys. I`ll keep you posted.
