Edge Repair
What's the best way to repair an IKEA desk's seams?
Wear and tear has damaged the edge closest to me on the desk I use at work. Because of this, my clothes is snagging on the table and damaging my cloths. I would like to find a solution that can repair the desk and make the edge smooth again, but not look unsightly. Duct tape won't work because it doesn't look professional. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Reverse the top and Formica it. You could probably buy a new desk for the price unless you do the work yourself.

Take a bunch of experienced landlords out for drinks away from the office and you'll soon hear tales that will curl (or uncurl) your hair. From loony tenants to total repair disasters, we've seen just about everything. Listen in as we share some of our inner gripes and observations. I may not personally agree with all of them, but most landlords (including yours) have had many of these thoughts more often than they'll ever admit in public.
1. "I've grown to hate your pets." – Yes, we know how crazy you are about little Fluffy or Fifi. And we've heard you tell us how well-mannered and sweet they are. But we've also seen the horror shows. We've had walls and doors scratched to bits by bored or lonely pets. We've received our share of irate calls from neighbors complaining about all-hours barking or aggressive behavior. Perhaps worst of all, we've personally witnessed carpets so badly soaked in pet urine that the smell almost knocks you sideways. Not sweet at all!
The solution is simple: Show your landlord you'll take complete responsibility for your pets from Day One. Provide names, weights and breed types to your landlord prior to move in, preferably with proof of spaying or neutering. Protect yourself (and your landlord) from lawsuits by getting a pet liability rider on your renters insurance policy. And NEVER try to sneak undisclosed pets in – most leases consider that grounds for immediate eviction.
2. "As soon as the market allows it, I'm going to raise your rent." – Every day we read about how much cheaper it is to rent than to own. Some go so far as to suggest that home ownership is for suckers. Don't be fooled. All the recent foreclosure activity has created a huge surge in the number of renters out there. Simple supply and demand suggest that eventually rents will start heading up. For us landlords, that day can't come soon enough.
3. "I play favorites." – As in all other aspects of life, good-natured and reasonable folks usually get treated better than jerks. By all means, be a "squeaky wheel" when necessary, but there's rarely a need to get nasty. We try not to be blatant about it, but when repairs are needed (or perks are available) we'll go the extra mile for our nicest residents.
4. "If your car is nicer than mine, you'd better pay your rent on time." – These are tough financial times for all of us. We get that. Even so, if you fail to pay rent we'll be far more sympathetic to your tale of woe if you're not sporting the latest Lexus or Benz in your driveway. Same goes for the humongous flat-screen TV. We want to be compassionate, but no one likes to be played for a fool.
5. "I'm not really in charge here." – You've got a boss at your job: So do we. Understand that every decision, every expense, every repair has to be approved by someone. So, if we do "cut you a break" on the rent this month, next month we'll be out of a job and someone far meaner will be your new landlord.
6. "If you make me dread dealing with you, I'm going to find ways to make you suffer." – We prefer things nice and quiet. But, when a resident calls up screaming and yelling, it disturbs our whole office and sets everyone on edge. We run a fairly tight ship, so if we missed something you can bet we'll make it right. But if you become habitually abusive, you'll find that everything you need will start taking just a little bit longer than normal.
7. "I might learn to hate your kids, too." – Perhaps pets can be forgiven for the damage they do. However, we see no excuse for unruly children left to run wild at home. Sure, well-behaved children are a joy. But we've seen far too many holes punched through doors, crayon marks up and down walls, and fences destroyed to doubt the destructive power of unsupervised kids. If you aren't prepared to keep your offspring in check, you're going to face serious consequences.
