Homeowners hear rattling from cabinets as floors flex. Lift the beam about three eighths of an inch, gap the post and beam, insert opposing shingles to a quarter inch, then release the jack. This tightens the structure and stops the noise.

Clematis pruning groups guide flowering laterals
Garden writer Lee Reich explains that clematis fall into three pruning groups determined by their flowering habit. Group 1 flowers late on new growth and should be cut back to within a foot of the ground each year. Group 2 flowers early on last year's stems and should be cut nearly to the ground after bloom. Group 3 flowers on both old and new wood and requires selective cutting or staged pruning to preserve later blooms.
