Two things I don’t fuck with in my house. Electricity and Water. I’m good with the other shit. Painting, drywall, crown moulding, Landscaping, I got it. Electricity and water is above my pay grade.


^^^^^^^^

some things I'll do but I know enough to know what I don't know and water is a motherfucker. You never know until your floors collapse from water seepage.

Same here, and Alex in the video said the same..... I do minor electrical, lights, fans, outlets etc....... it's better to get a plumber for heavy plumbing jobs and an electrician that knows the current building codes..... I don't like fucking with tubs and sweating pipes

Easier said than done. The garage door spring on my garage broke. I watched YouTube and fucked my shit up even more. The repair man came over , looked at it and laughed. I’d rather just pay somebody
That spring might be a lil more than I want to fuck with now, don't want to get popped with it by accident trying to repair one, but I installed both my garage door openers myself when I bought my crib.... just took my time doing it and followed the instructions.... it was 2003 and no one was really talking YouTube videos :dunno:

Spring on my garage door snapped once. Shit sounded like a bomb hit my house. It was all good until metal parts started flying in the enclosed space and the garage door met gravity…

I'm the oppsite. Electricy and water, I'll do it myself. It will be code compliant too. Painting, drywall, etc I'll pay someone else because I want a perfect, professional finish.
