All right, welcome now our numbertwo at Home with Gary Sullivan. Uh,
it's gonna be a great day,gonna be in the mid fifties.
The sun is out, so enjoy. Maybe get out and do a little
decorating. What do you say?Here's our phone number as we talk home
improvements five one, three, seven, nine fifty five hundred. Uh lines

(00:25):

station. Well, it's weekend.Welcome at Home with Gary Salvans. That

minute holiday season project. Check itout at ta mender dot com. All
Right, talking home improvement, youcan grab a line. It's eight hundred

(00:47):
eight two three eight two five fiveand back to back to will we go?
Okay, will a follow up questionyou have? Yeah, as far
as Jenny, Well, I'm gonnadig that out for French train along it
so that the mud to the journalone side, it's it's uh goos down
to the arm it's open on theother side. But going back to your

(01:08):
question or going back to your thehydraulic cement. I got a course that
probably using trialing it down there,or making it more of a slurry so
it goes down fills all the cracks. I mean, does that hydrog cement
expand on its own a degree?To a degree it does, I don't

(01:30):
know to what. I've used ithundreds of times. What you mix,
it'll be a stiff mix. Itwon't be a slurry, and it'll harden
within probably a couple of minutes.I mean when you mix it, you've
got to be ready to apply it. And and you know it's used in

(01:52):
foundation walls, you know, eliminateleak and stuff like that. But yeah,
i'd have a margin where you canstuff that in there. Wear gloves,
wear goggles. It's hot stuff.I mean, it warms and it
it does expand. It's minimal expansion, but it does expand. It'll be

(02:13):
a hard fix. How about puttinga bonding agent down there. I've done
that, red pair concrete painted abonding agent for a bonding Yeah. The
water stop itself, at least theones that I'm familiar with, It's called
a lot of things water stop,water plug, leak, leak stopper,
Those normally have a bonding agent inthem, and so it wouldn't be required.

(02:38):
Like if you took just like straightmortar and made a mortar mixture,
then a bonding agent would need tobe added. But a lot of your
specialty crack products, like the vinylconcrete patcher, the anchoring cement, the
hydraulic cements, those usually have bondingagents that are already added. All right,

(03:00):
all right, well, good luck, thanks for the call, appreciate
it. All right, then,uh, let's go to Carol. Carol,
welcome. H Yes, advice.I'm trying to replace eight bulbs with

(03:25):
LED and I'm hoping to do itwithout replacing your fixtures. You're four of
them. You're gonna have to replacethat fixture. Mm okay, yeah,
I'll get that answer that. Yeah, and some of those are not that
difficult quite honestly. I mean,you know, you've got a couple of

(03:46):
lead wires, m and you gota little patching you might have to do
on the ceiling. You're probably gonnaneed an extra set of hands. And
then just pay attention to when you'rebuying them, they'll talk a lot about
kelvin units and lumens. Kelvin unitsis the brightness, Well, it's not

(04:11):
really the brightness, it's the colorof the brightness. You know, like
in the old days we had softwhite daylight, and so you probably want
to kelvin unit probably around three thousand, which should be close to a soft
white. And then just how manylumens you're going to get. There's usually
a conversion chart there. I justwent through this every place, like six

(04:32):
of them and trying to get thesame amount. You know, like if
it's a four bulb eight foot long, it'll tell you you know what type
of la it was one and watch. Yeah, I understand that. Yeah
that. Yeah. When I researched, it's on the internet showed there's deal

(05:00):
where you just take the ballast outof the old fixture. Well yeah,
okay, so you can do that, but I'm here to tell you it's
just easier to replace the fixture.Okay, it really is. All right,
that sounds like what I need.You're quite welcome, Carl, Thanks

(05:23):
all right. Uh yeah, theyman, they make a difference too.
We just did them. I've beentelling you about our painting project, but
we also got into uh you know, since we're going to paint the closets,
and everything. It's like, well, let's update that we had a
couple of four foot four bulb fixturesof fluorescence and put in the LED fluorescent

(05:46):
fixtures. Oh my gosh, brightercleaner, uh, a thinner profile and
covered up you know, we hadto we painted the ceiling anyway. I
don't think we really had to patchanything. Most of was hidden. It
was a nice enhancement, it reallywas. Let's go to Steve. Steve,

(06:06):
welcome, good morning. How areyou today doing fine? Sir?
Thank you? Okay. The personthat called about the chimney fire, Yes,
that's a big problem. People don'tknow about it until their neighbor calls
them and says, I see firecoming out of your chimney. Most chimney

(06:28):
fires. I just read a statisticthe other day, Steve, and you're
exactly correct. If homeowners that havehad a chimney fire, over half of
them are totally una where there wasever a problem. Right, Well,
I have a solution for him,call their homeowner's insurance. That should be
covered. Hmm. Okay, that'swell, if they had a fire from

(06:51):
the chimney, it would be covered, wouldn't it, I would guess,
so Okay, Well, that's aprevent. I have a measure and insurance
companies will take care of it.That's awesome, that's awesome. Didn't even
think of it. Yeah, wellit happened to me. My insurance company

(07:12):
covered it, and it was noteven a question asked as long as they
had proof, as long as theyhad proof, as long as they had
prooved that there was a crack init. Yeah. Well, you know
that's a good point too. Thatfella said something which is very very important.
He said he had a chimney comingout, and they came in and
they had a video, and I'mhere to tell you. Yeah, if

(07:34):
anybody, yeah, good for you. If anybody tells you you need twenty
six thousand dollars worth of repair andcan't show you what the problem is,
I'll definitely get another, you know, another quote and have another inspection done,
because that technology is pretty much prettycommonplace nowadays. And they should also

(07:55):
make sure that that chimney person willwork with the insurance company and provide them
with the proof. And I'm surethe insurance company also even recommend a few
people to work with, right,right, Well, very good, that's
been very helpful. Steve I appreciateit. Okay, have a good day.
You do the same. Thank you. I did not think of that,

(08:18):

(11:22):
Nineteen minutes after the top. Theyare talking a little home improvement together,
and let's go to Jay Jay.Welcome, Hey Gary, Hell are you
yes, sir? Fine? Thanks? Good good? Hey. A couple
of things. My cousin had aJimmy fire burned half his house down so
that I should take it very,very seriously. Yes, sir, I
agree, just nearly destroyed the house. I also had all of my canlights

(11:46):
replaced in the house with sealed cans, and then still put additional sealers over
and before I did the installation inthe attic and made a world of difference.
So it is amazing how much airleaks around the ceiling. Yeah,
it really is totally amazing. Youcould see the black, like the other
gentleman described, from the air filtrationcoming up through there. The question I

(12:09):
have for years. I have askylight in my kitchen, and under the
skylight above the tunnel is decorative metalwork that butts up against the skylight itself.
It's not calked between the wall ofthe tunnel and the skylight, and
I'm wondering if I should get outthere and calk it or if I leave

(12:31):
it alone. I don't want totrap any Well, that's the Yeah,
without seeing it, that would bemy first concern. That was what I
was going to address is and Ihave a little difficulty visualizing it, but
sometimes we can, you know,calk and seal the moisture or water inside
the walls. I think You're goingto have to make that determination because I'm

(12:56):
I can't really visualize on the insidewhere that gap is that you could be
actually sealing water in. Has itbeen any issues with moisture. It's just
cold air. Yeah, it's justcold air. I'm afraid with the warm
air that rises up because it goesa good ten feet above the kitchen to

(13:16):
that skylight that if I do that, the warm air will create its own
condensation between that metal and the coldair and the attic. I insulated around
the tunnel that leads down into thekitchen from the skylight from the attic,
but it's still there's still cold airthere. So I think I'm going to
seal everything except the bottoms. Yeah, but that air breathed. It's kind

(13:41):
of like they say not to sealthe bottom of an entry door door jam
exactly. We preach that a lotbecause the leaks are always from above and
then it can't get out. Thatwould be the only concern that I would
have, would be just trapping itif there was a flashing issue outside.
Is that its pathway? Yeah,that's a good question, and I'm even

(14:05):
more they did a magnificent job,but I'm more concerned about the radiating heat
causing its own condensation, so I'lllet it go. Yeah. Yeah,
So when we're there, obviously it'sgoing to rise, it's going to get
into that area. Where's the metalthat you're concerned about on the inside picture

(14:26):
of skylight with a tunnel going downto the actual ceiling. So there's an
eight foot by six foot space inmy kitchen right above my head that goes
up about another eight feet and that'sall dry walled in Okay, And that's
when the skylight comes down. There'smetal work on the inside. It's not

(14:48):
flashings. It's more decorative to coverup the construction of the skylight. And
then there of course is flashing onthe outside they do. So just just
try and how big is that cat? How big is that called fingernail?
Yeah? If it's just that,I I mean, I would think you

(15:11):
could still put like an acrylic latexsilkn iced calking around it. It kind
of guess hard a picture, I'msure, Yeah it is. It is.
I am struggling with it, there'sno question about it. I think
I'm gonna leave well enough to learninsulate all the scenes, but not Yeah,
that would be a safe bet.That'd be a safe bet. And

(15:33):
then maybe you can even do likeone side of that scene after you have
done the others. Uh, maybeone side by that metal and just see
if there's any ramifications there on thatone side. Okay, I'll give it
a shot. Thank you, youbet, take care away. Let's go
to Mary. Mary Welcome, Hey, Mary, Oh, Mary, Mary,

(16:03):
Mary Mary. I don't think Mary'sthere. Let's go to Jeff.
Jeff welcome, Hey, good morning, Gary. How are you yes,
sir? Fine? Thanks? Questionfor you. I've got an old house,
we're talking one hundred plus years old, and some of the floor joins
in there. They're rough cut lumber, so they're full, full dimension,

(16:26):
and where they're joined, they're noton Joyce Hagers. It's almost I guess
I'll describe it as like a lapjoint that went in to the side like
keat in there. And now withit being so old, the one has
dried out and shrunk, and we'regetting some bounce in the floor, and
I'm just wondering, is it bestto maybe sister those or what would be
the best way to bring that floorback up to level? How much of

(16:48):
it is it off. I'm guessingprobably around a quarter inch or so.
Okay, is there any way toshim it? Driving shims in there?
There it's a possibility, I wouldsay, and the one the one side
that it's on a sandstone foundation inthe one area. All right, Well,

(17:11):
shimming would be one issue or oneway. The integrity of that Joyce
you say, it's it's is itdry rot or it shrinking or you know,
is it it's this is joy arestructurally sound. It's just that they've
they've dried out and shrunk in dimension. Okay, I would try. I

(17:33):
would go two different ways. Iwould try shimming first, I really would,
And then if you can't get thatdone, maybe just doing a sister
Joyce and and going from there andyou know, taking up that other quarter
inch, but shimming it up theremight not be a bad idea at all.
Okay. And as far as shims, what would you recommend just a

(17:55):
big box from there or but forsomething better? I think I would just
shim it, even at the topof it, right up against the floor
and just use the standard shims.Okay, Yeah, and see if that
doesn't take that bounce out, itprobably will. And then if you are
a little concerned on the on thejoyce themselves. You might just get a

(18:18):
little tongue oil and just kind ofrejuvenate, you know, allow them to
suck that tongue oil in there,kind of rejuvenate. That would Okay,
it's good idea. All right,Thank you for everything you do. Gary,
You're quite welcome. Thank you.All right. It was a couple
of weeks ago we had a littlesegment on cleaning up during the holidays,

November thirtieth. Odor exit dot com. Best way to wake up in the
morning A hot cup of coffee ydBrian Thomas tomorrow from five till nine am
on fifty five krc D Talk station. Well, throughout the course of the
show, you hear me always talkingabout the different Jaws cleaners, and this

(22:15):
time of year, I know we'redoing a lot of clean up with all
the cooking and decreasing and cleaning upthe TV screen. Well, I invited
Bruce from Jaws to come in andtalk a little bit about the cleaners,
and Bruce, thanks for joining ustoday. I appreciate it. Oh,
good morning, Gary, good totalk to you. And can't believe this

(22:36):
November and thanksgivings around the corner andthe holiday season upon us. No question
here going fast, Yeah, thatsure does. The first thing I want
to talk about, Bruce, ifyou don't mind, is again giving us
a little history of the Jaws products, because you know, when you walk
into the big grocery stores, hardwarestores, discount stores, the one thing

(22:56):
you're guaranteed to find is probably atLEAs twenty four to forty eight feet of
cleaning products, but yours are unique. They are gary. You know,
we decided to introduce a line ofhighly concentrated, super concentrated cleaners that are
all Safer Choice certified, which providesan economical and ecological way to do your

(23:19):
cleaning in the home. They're hardperforming, but it's all about reusing that
bottle. So we have an elegant, beautiful bottle that you'll fill with your
water, insert that child resistant cartridgethat's filled with that super concentrate, and
when you tighten down on the spray, releases the concentrate into the water and
you've made your first bottle of Jaws. And so it's a far more modern

(23:42):
way of going about it. Wehave billions of bottles and landfills. We
throw them away or recycle them afterone use. It doesn't make sense.
So it's all about reusing the bottle, having a super concentrate in a cartridge
about the size of a roll ofnickels that you can use to clean basically
every surface in your home with greatvariety, without streaking and fuming and some

(24:03):
of the other things that you seein most cleaning products. On that shelf
that you're talking about. So wereduce ways and we're always talking and have
been talking, you know, aboutVOC's and a house and how chemicals linger
in the house as the homes gettighter. And you said something about a
safer certification. Can you explain that? Sure, Well, we were actually

(24:26):
Safer Choice the EPA Safer Choice Partnerof the Year this year, which is
a very very distinctive honor. Alot of companies trying to get that.
But basically what it does is SaferChoice says in this an EPA program that
if your product isn't safer in termsof design, and it's not only the
ingredients that we show on the label, but it's also the way those ingredients

(24:49):
are developed, and it doesn't alsomeet a very high performance criteria, they
will not give you certification that youcan use their mark on your labeled products.
And so it's a huge, hugewar wind for us and really excited
about that, and so congratulations,that's great. I had a caller.

(25:11):
I had a caller just about ahalf hour ago and recommended your disinfectant product,
and maybe I'd like to talk aboutthat first. He had I guess
a company out that had a blockagenhis waistline, so we know that can
be kind of a yucky job.They got the waistline cleaned out, but

(25:33):
some of the waists ended up onthe basement floor, creating, you know,
kind of a hazardous situation and alsoreally strong odors. And I had
talked to him about your disinfectant,is that something it could tackle? Well,
Gary, the beauty of our disinfectantis that if it wasn't a disinfectant,
you'd love to use it in yourhome because you can use it on

(25:56):
a thousand different hard surfaces in yourhome and it'll do a great job cleaning
that and not leaving streaks behind.So you know that be number one.
Number two. It's a hospital gradedisaffectant, which means it's been tested against
a thousand different kinds of organisms thatyou have, from funguses to bacteria.
You know, certainly all the thingsthat we hear about with COVID and all

(26:17):
the other stuff certainly has been testedagainst and approved for. But at the
end of the day, it doesa just a great job at cleaning,
deodorizing. It's got a nice lemonfragrance to it, but at the end
of the day, it will kill. I mean, I need a bottle
one hundred feet tall to put allthe different claims and all the time thing
that's been done by the EPA asa third party test, supporting all the

(26:38):
work that we've done to make surethat it performs to the level that we
expect. Okay, all right,that was a lot of what I said,
So thank you for confirming that.I'm sure he'll be relieved. I
said, this is the next sixto eight weeks is a lot of cleaning
goes on. We have a lotof guests in our homes and we find

(27:00):
ourselves staying on top of the wholeprocess. You've got a holiday caddy pack,
and we've had this caddy pack mentioneda couple times in our conversations.
Tell me about the new holiday caddypack. Sure. Absolutely, and really
appreciate the support of all your listeners. Gary. We've sold thousands and thousands

(27:21):
of thousands of these kits to peoplewho have come back with really great comments.
You know, rather than giving somebodya pair of socks that they're going
to lose one sock in a weekor whatever, it's just a great way
to provide a cleaning system for notonly your own home to clean all the
different surfaces into your home. Doit in the safe way, do it
so that you don't have the fumesand destroying the surfaces in the home.

(27:44):
But it also does a great varietyof work. So the caddy pack that
we've designed for this season, certainlywith the lot of cooking and baking going
on through this period through Thanksgiving inthe holidays, we have a great kitchen
degreas here. It does a alot of different jobs in terms of cleaning
any kind of animal or vegetable oilor soils and things like that you find

(28:07):
in the kitchen. Wonderful on yourgranite marbles and cultured marbles and cook tops
and things. It doesn't leave thestreaks behind that you find with other products.
It will your marble's gonna look greatten years from now that it did
today because it has nothing in theirinjury to the stone. On the darker
surfaces, especially, they're hard tomake look good after you clean. And
this kitchen degrease is fabulous there stainlesssteel, you name it, but really

(28:30):
great for across the kitchen. Wealso then have the glass cleaner. You
have TVs and computer screens, iPadsand all of the other kind of stuff.
Certainly can use it for quick countcleaner, count ups, our cleanups
on your counter, refrigerator, stainlesssteel, things along those lines, but
does a great job. And insideoutside glass you're watching Hallmark, you're watching

(28:52):
football, you're watching this, that, and the other thing being able to
clean your big screen TVs efficiently,effectively, and it in a way that
will never hurt that screen because ithas no alcohol butter arimmoni in there,
which you don't choke on, isawesome. We have the bathroom, the
foaming bathroom cleaner, which has becomea very very top performer. Great for

(29:14):
the bathroom area. You don't haveto spray it run for your life.
It has great foaming qualities, soit'll sit on that vertical surface and do
the work that you want throughout thebathroom areas, whether it be a toilet,
countertop, sink, or shower.And then we have the disinfectant in
there, Gary, which we've alreadyspoke of, which gives your great universal
use across the home, doorknobs,phones, things along those lines. And

(29:37):
then we put in your cream cleanser, you run stream cleaner. Oh my
gosh, I love it. Ilove it. Ye yep, that's in
there. It has that oxygenated bleachsthat you like, so you're not wasting
your your your count your you know, clothing and rugs and things like that,
but you're bleaching coffee stains, berrystains, rust removal, things like
that that you have in and aroundthe sink areas. And then we have

(30:02):
one new, cool, new itemthat I've been using for years in the
home, which I'm really really excitedabout. It's a dish spray. You
know, again, you're doing alot of dishes, you're doing a lot
of clean up, you're doing alot of those things. You may be
serving wines and beers, and soyou have certain glasses that are delicate that
need to get cleaned on their own. But rather than wait to have a
whole dishwasher ful of stuff, youknow that it builds out and crodes on

(30:23):
there and gets hard on there andeverything else, go ahead and just spray
the dish, swab it a coupleof times with that brush and rinse it
and you're ready to go, andreally is a fabulous Just spray it off
there and wipe it off and you'refinishing absolutely. You know, we don't
have fifteen different people in the homeanymore. And being able to I use

(30:47):
the coffee cup, I clean it, I use the wine glass, I
clean it. I do the acouple of dishes for dinner and we clean
them, and so you're doing itright away. We did it for people
who have kids, young kids,infants that are cleaning bottles and trying to
sanitize them, and they're doing itat two am the morning, at four
am in the morning, and beingable to quickly clean that bottle, swam

you'd like to grab a line,happy to take your calls. It's eight
hundred eight two three eight two fivefive and Judy, welcome, Hello,
Happy Thanksgiving. Well, you weretalking cleaning when I turned on. And
two things. Number one, thenewer dishwashers that you have. You've got

(41:25):
your I don't know, dogovich callit your filter and down in the bottom
they kind of hold water, geta funky smell. I know they're there
to grab any kind of limp andstuff that comes through. But number one,

(41:45):
is there a way that you canget it that it'll drain more of
the water out of there? Andwhat is the best way to clean that
that you're not getting that stagnant water? So are you talking about the drain
the center of the bottom of thedishwasher? Yes, okay, So that's
a screen just to cut and catchfood particles from clogging up the drain.

(42:10):
And sometimes what will happen is theactual installation of the hose for the dishwasher.
The discharge hose is just a straightconnection into the waistline of the plumbing,
so it's underneath the cabinet. Justmake sure that that's number one.

(42:34):
It should be in a loop.It shouldn't be just a straight line.
A lot of times they are justa straight line. Make sure that that
is in a circle and then intothe waistline. That's one thing I want
you to check. The other thingis a lot of times they don't fully
drain. Again, is because thatscreen can be pulled out and cleaned.

(42:58):
A lot of times those food particlescan get meshed in there, clog up
the holes, which don't allow forgood drainage down the waistline. So check
that also, and then you knowwhatch causing the odor is probably that decaying
food that has you know, becomeclogged inside inside that drain. So there's

(43:20):
a few things for you to check, and I think you're going to solve
your problem fairly easily. All right, Thank you much. Our phone number
