    Textured wall - asbestos risk?

    Hi everyone, I’m a bit paranoid about asbestos, and I’m living in this apartment - looks to be around mid80s - with a texture on most of the walls (although not ceilings) and the built-in cupboards and shelves.

    Need advice around these clicking sounds. I posted last week, but I didn’t get much luck. This I have recorded the sounds. The sound appear to be around my toilet, but I don’t think the toilet is the issue but something behind toilet - in the wall and probably a pipe. Hope you can help me...

    Just bought a Crosswater Fusion 3 hole wall mounted bath tap. Can't for the life of me figure how I can fit and secure it. According to the instructions there are two screwed flanges on the body of the tap that hold the tap. Sounds reasonable except that the length of the tap and hence max...
