Simple painting project - beware :-)

What started out many months ago as 'painting' naturally evolved into a lot of other projects. Experienced DIYers know this well!

My 'painting' project spanned painting, flooring, electrical, plumbing, trim, etc etc. While home projects never end, at least I feel I'm gaining.

The 'simple' matter of moving the fireplace blower switch closer to the fireplace entailed sheetrocking and adding recessed lights!

Thanks to the moderators here for the help and suggestions.

Water Damage Repair

Hi All, When I came home today I walked into the house to have water dripping on my head. Yay. The tank on the upstairs toilet cracked. Strange, since it hasn't been used in a few years. Anyway, I got the water turned off and cleaned up but on the main floor I have some damage on the ceiling. Just wondering how you would go about fixing something like this? [ATTACH]84592[/ATTACH]

Hello, I have a room I'd like to paint and I've decided on the colours the only thing is the one wall is pink and it is making the colour look different to the other wall see the picture. Then there's the wooden skirting that I'd paint with a pva paint but it peels right of if you scrape it also see picture. It also is not settling smoothly. How do I make sure the grey colours are all the same after painting and how do I get the red paint smooth and. stop peeling.
