Making repairs: A little know-how goes a long way

A

By Tim McKeough

New York Times

s the pandemic forces us to spend our days hunkered down, our homes face far more strain than usual. Faucets bear the brunt of increased hand-washing, toilets get flushed with greater regularity and appliances experience more frequent use. If you have children at home, it’s also possible that your living room now suffers as much abuse as a gym. Under such increased demands, it’s natural for the home to experience more wear and tear. Plastic and rubber components begin to break down, drains get clogged and boisterous children and pets may damage drywall and window screens. The good news, especially at a time when you might prefer to limit in-person visits from service professionals, is that many common home repairs are relatively easy to complete, with a few tools and a little know-how. As the pandemic forces us to spend our days hunkered down, our homes face far more strain than usual. (MELANIE LAMBRICK / THE NEW YORK TIMES)

that can be loosened with an Allen key. Underneath each handle will be different parts depending on the type of valve the faucet uses: cartridge, ceramic disc or ball. Regardless, Macfarlane said, remove the top nut with an adjustable wrench and use

needle nose pliers to pull out the parts. Take the parts to a home improvement store, he suggested, and ask for help finding replacements that are a perfect match. Then, reassemble the faucet with the new parts in the reverse order and test the repair by gradually opening up the shut-off

Repair a window screen When your new pandemic puppy puts a tear in your window screen, it doesn’t have to be an open invitation for flies and mosquitoes. To fix it, remove the screen, which is usually held in place by small clips or tension springs. Then locate the spline, a thin cord that runs around the outer edge of the screen on one side. Place the screen on a flat surface with the spline facing up. Find the end of the spline and pry it up with a screwdriver or utility knife, then pull the rest of the spline out of the frame to release the old screen. “Once you get it started, you can usually peel it out with your hands,” said Chris Janiak, the service delivery manager at Hippo Home Care. Buy a roll of screening material to match the old screen and cut a piece slightly larger than the frame. Place it over the frame, and begin securing it by pushing the spline back into the channels with a screen rolling tool (if the spline was damaged

during removal, buy a new one). Keep the screen taut as you work, “as if you were installing carpet,” Janiak said, “because you don’t want a saggy screen.” Once the spline is in place, trim off the excess screening material with a utility knife and reinstall the screen in the window Tools and supplies: utility knife, screen rolling tool, roll of replacement window screen. Fix a toilet Although reaching into the innards of a toilet might seem daunting, most repairs are straightforward. “The great thing about toilets is that they haven’t changed too much over the years — it’s pretty simple,” said Anne Sebestyen, a plumbing repair merchant at the Home Depot. If the toilet won’t flush, remove the lid from the tank to inspect the chain that runs from the flush lever to the flapper, the circular plug at the bottom of the tank. If the toilet won’t stop filling, or it sounds like it occasionally flushes itself, the culprit is usually a leaky flapper, Sebestyen said. To fix it, turn off the water shut-off valve behind the toilet and flush the toilet to remove SEE REPAIRS, PAGE F4

Stop a leaky faucet Whether it’s a steady dribble or a rhythmic drip, a leaky faucet is annoying and wasteful. Fixing the problem usually involves replacing parts inside the handles. But before disassembling the faucet, the first and most important step is shutting off the water, said Hunter Macfarlane, a project expert at Lowe’s, in order to avoid room-soaking geysers. Locate the two shut-off valves under the sink for hot and cold water and turn them off. Then, turn on hot and cold water at the faucet. “If nothing comes out, you’re golden — you can proceed,” Macfarlane said. If water is trickling out, however, there’s a problem with the shut-off valves. If that happens, he said, “stop and call a plumber.” With the water shut off, remove the handles (or handle, on a single-lever model) from the faucet. Usually, they have caps that can be pried off to reveal screws or are held in place by a small set of screws

valves. Tools and supplies: flathead screwdriver, Allen keys, adjustable wrench, needle nose pliers, replacement parts.

Add drywall repair clips to the edges of the hole to hold the patch in place and secure it with screws. Apply mesh drywall tape over the seams.

ing or watching the vanity basin fill up when washing hands can be disconcerting. Usually, slow bathroom drains are caused by a buildup of hair and soap scum. The easiest way to try to unclog them is to pour in a chemical drain cleaner, said Sebestyen. However, results may be disappointing, and the chemicals can be dangerous. A more surefire, and safer, way of unclogging drains is to use a plastic hair snake, an inexpensive tool that resembles a large serrated zip tie, to pull out the gunk. For access to a shower drain, remove the drain cover. For access to a sink, remove the drain stopper. Most stoppers

are controlled by a vertical rod and a horizontal rod connected behind the sink by a clip. To release the stopper, disconnect the rods, then unscrew the nut where the horizontal rod enters the drainpipe. Slide the horizontal rod out of the pipe, then simply lift the stopper out of the sink. Once you have access, pull out as much material as you can with the hair snake and collect it in a bag or on paper towels for disposal, while trying not to get too grossed out. “You’re fishing,” Sebestyen said. “But what you’re coming back with is not as pretty as a fish.” Tools and supplies: hair snake.

Resolve to learn more about ‘biotech’

SUGGESTION FOR a New Year’s resolution: Spend more time in the garden. The reasons are familiar enough and include getting fresh air, exercise and sunshine, along with fresh vegetables, fruits and flowers. Those are the usual reasons for gardening; new ones have surfaced in recent years. Genetic engineering, biotechnology, and gene splicing are some names for new technology that is now and will increasingly be putting tailor-made food on supermarket shelves. “Biotech” has already created such wonders as corn plants that kill corn borer insects rather than the other way around, and tomato plants that are able to laugh off cold. The way that these wonders are wrought is by splicing into the plants special genes that never could have gotten there naturally. Clever ways had to be devised to do this, such as by having them piggyback into cells on viruses. Genes, then, could be taken from almost anywhere, such as a flounder in the example

of the frost resistant tomato, or a bacterium in the case of the borer-killing corn. These genes can go about their work without our hardly knowing it; even on supermarket shelves, biotech foods need not be labeled as such. Knowing this may make you feel like tearing open your seed packets of regular old corn and tomato seeds and sowing them right now, in winter. Yes, biotech is eerie. Sort of makes your always delectable home-grown tomatoes, which lack that fish gene, even more appealing — whether or not you enjoy eating fish. More tangible concerns have been raised about foreign proteins increasing allergies as well as disrupting function of other genes. Biotech has been touted as being good for the environment. After all, borer-killing corn does not need to be sprayed with pesticides. But let’s look at the bigger picture. Dowsing whole areas — whether by sprays or, more thoroughly, via the plants themselves — with a pesticide is the surest way to breed insects resistant to

unknown hazards? No. A few overturned flowerpots have always seen my tomato plants through freak late frosts in spring. And corn borers have never taken more than a nibble from a few ears of each years’ crop of Golden Bantam, a delectable variety of sweet corn that originated in 1906. The beauty of the backyard garden, as well as the small, diversified farm, is that a crop failure spells no great calamity. I still ate plenty of tomatoes, lettuce, corn, and other vegetables the year sparrows pecked away almost all my Concern for genetically engineered foods is one of many reapea plants. sons to have a home garden, letting you know what goes into Globally, about 400 million the food that’s on your plate.

F YOU’RE LIKE MOST do-it-yourselfers, your garage probably creates a dilemma around the house. The problem is that while you think of it as an ideal workshop, everyone else thinks of it as a place to park. Have no fear— now there’s a neat, do-it-yourself solution. Complete with all the bells and whistles, this full-size workbench project folds up into a tidy, wall-mounted package just 13 inches deep. Inexpensive and easy to build, the project includes a generous worktop, integral storage shelves and space for a built-in light. The workbench is made primarily from plywood, 2-by4 lumber and some common hardware. To build, simply cut out the pieces and assemble using glue, nails and screws. Next, install the hardware. Finally, bolt the unit to the wall and add a fluorescent light fixture. Once installed, the project is as easy to use as it is to build. To close, fold the lightbox down, remove the cross braces from the legs and lift and latch the benchtop into place. Fold the legs into the bottom of the benchtop, shoot the bolt and slide the cross braces in behind the legs. To open, simply reverse the steps.

Wheeling in a new year with this baby buggy

T

HE “NEW YEAR” IS celebrated in many ways, but in the United States, there are always midnight celebrations with pictures of an old man representing the past and a baby, the new year. The other popular symbol is a clock of almost any style with the hands at midnight. The early Greek idea of Baby New Year was a baby paraded around in a basket to welcome the new year. Then it became pictures of the Baby Jesus or a Baby New Year. But pictures were created for publications, and each year from 1907 to 1943, Joseph Leyendecker drew a different, humorous illustration of a Baby New Year for the Saturday Evening Post. Those illustrations influenced all that followed. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was searching for the missing Baby New Year in a cartoon in the 1970s. Modern celebrations give gifts to the first newborn baby of the year at hospitals. We think the 19th-century baby buggy would be a nice gift for this year’s first born.

Q. What is Burger King’s

“Magical Burger King” doll worth? It was made by Knickerbocker Toy Co. in 1980. The doll is about 20 inches tall and has a cloth

body and plastic head and hands. The king is wearing a red outfit, yellow cape and boots, and has a crown on his head.

CURRENT PRICES Current prices are recorded from antiques shows, flea markets, sales and auctions throughout the United States. Prices vary in different locations because of local economic conditions.

A. The “Magical Burger

King” doll came in a box with a plastic official Burger King ring and magician’s props, a scarf that changed color, and a disappearing sponge “hamburger.” The doll alone sells for about $10. Dolls in good condition with the original box and all the parts included sell for $25 to $50.

lina Island. She had some dishes marked “Catalina Pottery made in the U.S.A.” It is no longer made. What can you tell me? Is it valuable?

A. Catalina Island and

its town, Avalon, were still recovering from a fire when, in 1915, it was bought by William Wrigley Jr. as a place for spring training for his baseball team, the Chicago Cubs. He learned about red clay there that could be used to make pottery. So in 1927, he built a factory to make bricks to use in the buildings that replaced fire-damaged ones. By 1937, the factory was making decorative tiles and pottery

using the name Catalina. The best pieces were designed by artists who hand-painted plates and vases and even signed their names on the bottom of the piece. The red clay gave special qualities to the glazes, so although other companies used the name Catalina, their pottery was less desirable. Unfortunately, sometimes pieces today are attributed to the wrong Catalina pottery. The Wrigley pottery was sold to Gladding McBean and Co. in 1937, and the wares were made on the mainland with the Catalina mark. Gladding McBean is now part of the Wedgwood Group.

WASHINGTON

Long-term US mortgage rates sink down to 2.66% By Kathy Orton

Washington Post

Fixed mortgage rates didn’t move much this week, but they declined enough to reach another record low, marking the third time this month and the 16th time this year they have hit historic lows. The 30-year fixed-rate average, the most popular mortgage product, sank to 2.66% with an average 0.7 point,

according to the latest data released Thursday by Freddie Mac. (Points are fees paid to a lender equal to 1% of the loan amount and are in addition to the interest rate.) It was 2.67% a week ago and 3.74% a year ago. The 30-year fixed rate has never been this low since Freddie Mac began tracking mortgage rates in 1971. It surpassed the previous low of 2.67% set last week. Since the start of 2020, the 30-year

rate has fallen more than a percentage point, going from 3.72% in January to 2.66% this week. Freddie Mac, the federally chartered mortgage investor, aggregates rates from around 80 lenders across the country to come up with weekly national average mortgage rates. It uses rates for high-quality borrowers with strong credit scores and large down payments. These rates are not available to every

borrower. Because the survey is based on home purchase mortgages, rates for refinances may be different. This is especially true since the price adjustment for refinance transactions went into effect earlier this month. The adjustment is 0.5% of the loan amount (e.g., it is $1,500 on a $300,000 loan) and applies to all Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac refinances.
