Tenants in one Queens building are dealing without heat as temperatures stay cold in the city. NY1's Michael Herzenberg filed the following report.

"Its very cold in here, you have to go to bed with robes and socks. Thats crazy because there's no heat, said Woodside resident Earlene Jenkins.

Jenkins says her heat doesn't work.

It's not cold in her Woodside Public Houses apartment, but she says that's because she constantly boils water on her stove which fire officials say is unsafe and she uses a space heater.

The pipe in the bathroom is hot to the touch, but the rest of the radiators aren't.

It's much the same scene from the first floor to the sixth floor of her building and Jenkins says she's worried about her 91-year-old father who lives with her.

"How dare they not give my father, 91 years old, heat. How dare they. He has to walk around with robes, she said.

"There's no heat, it's terrible, said her father.

"They said they would come and fix it and nothing has been about it, said resident Luis Bernal. They did come but they said everything would be fine and they're still no heat at all.

NYCHA says building 31-49 was experience gas pressure problem that has been fixed. Officials say they will continue to check on the apartments but residents are skeptical of any real improvements.

Wall Water Features Make a Dramatic Statement in Any Room! Call 1-888-881-4668 for our current promotions on water walls! Add Interior or Exterior Style

Wall water features are a great addition to any home, office or garden. A beautiful focal point in any room or outdoor living space, a wall fountain becomes an elegant blend of art and atmosphere. An additional benefit is the ability to provide soothing water sounds without giving up valuable floor space. Gently cascading water caresses marble, granite, slate, or artistic backdrops, mingling their elegance with rippling sounds and subtly lighted surfaces.

Our wall mounted fountains are available in horizontal or vertical designs, in both interior and exterior models. Materials range from lightweight featherstone slate to heavier slates, marbles, and granites, or reflective surfaces such as stainless steel and mirrors. Others are constructed from waterproof resin or fiberglass, that resembles the concrete, copper andstone relics of by-gone eras.

Wall fountains are neither difficult to mount, nor maintain. Heavier pieces should, of course, be mounted on studs. Lighter pieces can be mounted with the assistance of anchor bolts. Informative manufacturer instructions walk you through the steps for mounting them on any surface.

If youre looking for more ideas, check out our water walls.

Not only are wall waterfalls perfect for your home as a unique piece of art and to aid in stress relief and relaxation, they are great for the commercial setting as well. Many salons, massage therapists, chiropractors, dentists and doctors place commercial water walls in their public spaces for all to enjoy. They can also be used to reinforce branding when they are customized with the business logo.

Bushes and trees have their own personality, character and look. They have to fit in the plans you have for your garden design. Pruning, trimming, cutting and sawing become a major part of their development with careful planning and regular care they will define how your garden looks.

Hedges frame the garden. These living walls are ideal for dividing property or adding visual accents through artistic shapes. Trimming is vital for healthy and dense hedges and can be done manually or by help of electric or battery-driven hedge trimmers.

Cutting flowers or pruning bushes or trees is essential for the vitality of the plants. Pruning helps the plants to use their energy in a more productive way. Depending on the branches that need to be cut, different cutting tools can be helpful: Secateurs for flowers and thin branches, loppers and branch pruners for bushes and trees.

If pruning loppers are not strong enough to get your trees in shape, GARDENA's hand saws are the right choice. They can even be used in great heights using one of the GARDENA combisystem handles. For even more demanding tasks such as making fire wood, GARDENA chainsaws are the right products.

Each year, thousands of Arizona residents email or call Rosie Romeros radio show with questions about everything from preventing fires in their chimneys to getting rid of tree roots invading their sewer system. His goal is to provide answers that suit the specific lifestyle wherever someone lives in Arizona. Here are questions about home maintenance and improvement from the Southern Arizona area.

Q: I have just remodeled my bathroom; the work was finished this week. Some people have advised me to seal the travertine tile shower; others say no, I dont have to do it. Is it necessary?

A: Yes, you do have to seal it, because travertine is a porous stone that can be etched by acidic substances. But first, you have to let the grout dry out completely after the travertine has been put on by the remodeler. Its probably going to do that in three to five days, but waiting two weeks would be better.

Once you are ready to seal the stone, brush a thin layer of epoxy resin over the surface to fill any holes in the top layer. Allow it to dry thoroughly and then brush on another layer. Then mix the stone sealer and apply it with an applicator brush, moving in one direction. Check to make sure that you dont miss any areas or add too much or too little sealer. Allow to dry thoroughly before taking another shower.

Q: I have a problem with my flat roof; I have to paint it every year to keep it sealed. What can I put on top that would give more protection and reflect heat as well?

A: A white elastomeric roof coating could work well for you. It can be used on metal, foam or concrete tiles. But before you put it on, you need to thoroughly clean the roofs surface. Preparation is 90 percent of the job. Start by cleaning up any dirt or debris. Then use a pressure washer to finish the cleaning. Youll also want to repair any cracks or problem areas. The coating can be applied with a roller, brush or sprayer. Once the coating is on, it should last several years and help cool the interior of your house.

Q: I recently had a glass-enclosed porch added onto the back of my house. The builder seems to have done a good job, including adding extra flashing, but now there are four places inside on the ceiling of the porch that leak when it rains. I inspected the stucco parapet on the roof that is just above the porch and the stucco is pitted all over with tiny holes. Could those holes be the problem?

A: If you are sure the builder installed the porch properly, then that stucco parapet could indeed be the problem. If you have woodpeckers living in the area, they most likely have done the damage. You need to have a competent painter come in to fill those holes with elastomeric caulk and maybe even re-stucco the parapet. Then you can repaint.

Q: I have a townhouse where the tile flooring has cracked inside my kitchenette. The crack is near where the floor meets the outside wall, and when it rains, water comes up through that crack in the tiles. There is also a drainpipe right outside the wall. How can this problem be fixed?

A: Someone will probably need to excavate outside the townhouse down to the footing at the bottom. Then the concrete foundation area will need to be thoroughly cleaned and sealed. You may also need to redirect the water from the downspout to eliminate a source of water affecting this problem.
