  • What product is good to silence noise?

    My youngest son is neurodivergent and is very sensitive to loud noises. Do you know of any good products that he could use to silence the noise, perhaps good noise-cancelling headphones? Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    Strange smell in gutters

    There is a strange smelling excrement in my gutters. How can I safely remove this? Or should I ask a professional to come by and deal with it? I don’t mean because it’s disgusting but because I don’t know if it’s safe too as I’ve no idea what animal it has come from.

    Cost of plumbing in a washing machine

    I've just bought a reconditioned washing machine. How much would it cost to have someone plumb it in for me? I assume a handyman can do it rather needing a plumber? I have mobility issues, so I can't do it myself but I'm scared of being ripped off.
