In this show, we’ll share ways to keep animals from feasting on your garden, how to store leftover paint to make it last, and tips for inspecting your gutters to prevent leaks and water damage. Plus, we’ve got answers for DIY callers on more home improvement questions!

- Wildlife: Wildlife-proof your garden to keep animals from damaging your plants.

- Storing Paint: Extend the life of leftover paint with smart storage tips.

- Gutters: Prevent leaks and floods by prepping your gutters for spring rains.

Q & A:

- Heating: Ralph says the heat just isn’t reaching upstairs in his home. We suggest installing

registers in the floor to redirect the heat or adding a mini-split ductless system.

- Mold: Contractors have given Karen different advice about mold on the basement walls. She needs a professional mold mitigator to test it and recommend the best plan.

- Siding: What are the pros and cons of Hardie board siding? Steve learns about the durability and update of that and other good options for siding.

- HVAC: Is it worth having your air ducts cleaned? Sherry should start by getting good-quality filters and changing them regularly.

- Countertops: John wants to update his Formica countertops. Good budget options are either adding a new layer of laminate or using paint to refinish the countertop surface.
