and everything you do.

I wonder how / I wonder why / Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky / And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree

I am looking for clean wood chips in Cape Town, I got a great price of R200 rand per Cube, but only need 3 cubes and the transport is R1200. Anyone know of a place to get woodchips a little more local than Worcester?

Greywater system that was installed by Water Rhapsody. Collects from 3 bathrooms, kitchen and 2 student suites that I am renting out. 2 day installation. Asked for a meter so that I can monitor my Greywater recovery vs total usage. Very amped about this installation. The guys did an amazing job.

This is more of a home maintenance than improvement question....who knows how to waterproof IBR roofing?

 

I have IBR roofing on the garage. 3° slope so basically flat and during these heavy storms water leaks through and down the garage wall.

 

Think the leak is along the overlapping sections as well as the screws into the support beams.

 

What products should I be buying? What are the tips and tricks?

Hi everyone

 

I'm looking for any recommendations of a reliable / reputable home

maintenance / handy man (a hot woman will be better!) for some minor work around the house - window glass replacement, part(s) toilet cistern be

replaced, etc. I'm technically challenged.

 

I'm in the southern suburbs of Cape Town (Plumstead)

This sounds more like the script to a porn movie.

I was once told that with IBR you must be very careful of what products you use as the IBR expands a lot more than tiles. Not sure if there is any truth in this but its something to think about. Hope you come right, I had tiles leaking from all the rain.
