I just put wallpaper in one room of my house because it was an easy way to hide the cracks in the 100-year-old plaster walls. I can't really imagine choosing it over paint if the walls are new, though. I used this 3d pattern, which is pretty cool-looking in person, but I am afraid it's going to damage easily.

The Wonder Weapon posted:Sorry to distract from Vermont House chat. Quick note though: Heady Topper is from Stowe. It's not my favorite IPA, and I'd consider it overrated at this point, but it's unlikely you'll ever be upset to crack one of those open. My wife's cousin lives in Vermont and I ask her to bring me some every time she comes down. I'm just across the border, and you can definitely have gardens here that don't require more maintenance than a lawn. Native plants, or things like sedums or hostas, do fine without much watering once they've gotten established. If they're densely planted, they'll squeeze out most weeds once they fill in. Lots of easy-care perennials can be acquired cheaply or free, too.

Jaded Burnout posted:Perhaps there's a difference in market, but if a "tankless heater" is what we'd call a "combi boiler" then you don't have to worry about airflow because it draws air in from the same flue it exhausts from (but, you know, safely). Combi boilers are pretty rare in North America. I have one and it's really hard to get it repaired because a lot of HVAC guys have never seen one before.

Wallet posted:You can't prevent weeds, not entirely. If there's unoccupied real estate on the ground where the sun shines and it isn't covered in something impenetrable plants are going to show up. If you want no weeds you're going to have to do some weeding now and then (you really want to get weeds out of the ground before they flower and make more of themselves, though if they're in your lawn anyway it matters less). This is all good advice. I have easy-care perennials around my trees, and for me weeding is basically an early spring activity. Once my plants are up, the weeds are squeezed out. Just be careful around the tree roots when you plant. If you do consider herbicides definitely do not use the one linked above.
