Here are some of the highlights from the October 3, 2015, Today’s Homeowner with Danny Lipford radio show.

Pam in GA
Can I install peel & stick tile over wallpaper? How would I prep the wall?

Margie in OH
I recently had my porch replaced. There is about a 1/4 -1/2 inch gap between the bottom of the threshold and floor boards. Cold air is coming into the house. Is it necessary to fill the area with insulation and with what kind of molding to I put around the outside of the threshold. This is an open porch attached to the front of the house.

Ann in VA
We recently had a new AC system put in about a year ago and now my wood floors are cupping. Would this be due to anything with the new AC?

Esther in CO
I installed a sump pump in the crawl space. I have another one outside in the back yard. Can I remove the outside one?

Leslie in WA
Our washer & dryer are in an interior room, no exterior common walls, and I’ve been fighting a lot of mildew even though the dryer is vented down to the crawl space. What else can I do?

Greg
I made a couple of rain barrels from those blue plastic barrels that industrial cleaner comes in. I want to paint them to look like real barrels, so how do I do that?
