SideQuest 15: Pushing Through the DIY Wall, Four Seasons Gardening, & Secret Command Strips

from How To Handyma’am | A Home Improvement Comedy Podcast · host Samantha Pearl|Lic. Builder, Emily Pearl Reist|Lic. Builder, and Arly Streed

Welcome back to the Side Quest! Today, we are skipping the intro and diving straight into some listener questions, ranging from the highly technical to the completely chaotic.We start by helping Sherry F. figure out how to restore the water-damaged fronts of her sink cabinets without totally replacing them. (And yes, we may have gotten a little distracted by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons along the way...). Then, Julie D. asks a great question: why is her grout cracking, and what can she do to fix it? We break down the structural reasons why you can never use grout where there is a change of plane (like where the wall meets the counter), and what you need to buy to fix it.Finally, Tess M. wants to know if Musselbound is actually a legitimate product. We give our honest, professional review of this "giant double-sided sticky tape" and when you should (and shouldn't) use it in your home.Plus, we share our best tips for what to do when you hit the dreaded "DIY Wall" and feel like abandoning your project entirely.Join The Community!Sign up for the newsletter & submit listener questions: howtohandymaam.comFollow us on social media: @howtohandymaam
