    Any tips on how to remove a stuck G9 bulb?

    At my wits end - have a burnt out G9 bulb in a fixture and I cannot pull it out for the life of me. I’ve tried wiggling, I’ve tried with rubber gloves and can’t get it to come out no matter how hard I pull. Does anyone have any tips for getting it out? It’s the only bulb in a fairly dark...

    Apparent waste leak from under toilet

    Thanks, guys. I’ve had another look again today and it looks like there is a leak from one of the wingnuts. It must have dried by the time I had a look yesterday.

    Removing a toilet siliconed to the wall?

    The flush valve in one of our toilets has broken and I need to replace it. I've done it before and it's not a huge job. Unfortunately, however, the cowboy who installed the toilet has siliconed it to the wall instead of using screws. They also appear to have caulked the gap between the cistern...
