#HandymanTips Hey DIY’ers! DO NOT do this if you want to save your house and sanity… #Handyguy Says Do not live in the stress-shadow of an indefinite Honey-Do List, give up your valuable personal time, or create a more expensive mess trying to DIY it yourself… again! #WouldYouRather Let’s play! Would you rather… A) Take a hot bath or a dip into the hot tub? B) Or reseal that moldy bathtub caulk!? Best Answer: “A”, duh! #HandyguyTips: Whether you hire Handyguy to ease your workload or do it yourself, when resealing your tub or sinks, completely remove all the old caulk and clean off with mold killer. Then reseal carefully with waterproof, mold-resistant caulking. #ProTips: When applying caulk, maintain a smooth, even motion with a steady squeeze. Practice with an extra tube on a disposable surface before making a mess of your area. For a precise clean line, try masking the area with quality painter’s tape. #LifeHack Living with the stress of a gross, moldy tub or sink, let alone an unfinished To-Do-List, is not good for your health, sanity, or your relationships. Life is short, call the Handyguy! #Confessions: Ever have a touch-up job turn into a full-blown renovation? I have ;P I want to hear your stories!

DO NOT do this if you want to save your house and sanity… #Handyguy Says Do not live in the stress-shadow of an indefinite Honey-Do List, give up your valuable personal time, or create a more expensive mess trying to DIY it yourself… again! #WouldYouRather Let’s play! Would you rather… A) Throw a Toga Party? B) Or install a light fixture with instructions in ancient Greek!? Best Answer: “A”, duh! Maybe. Let’s make it a dinner party. Toga parties are lame ;P #HandyguyTips: Whether you hire Handyguy to ease your workload or do it yourself, when working on anything electrical in your home, always double check that the electricity is shut off at the breakers and use an electrical voltage tester. Don’t have one, don’t risk it. Call a pro. Wireless voltage testers are inexpensive and a great option. #ProTips: When it comes to electrical work, the best idea is not to do it yourself. Call a pro. If you do take on the project, always double check that all the breakers are off before working. Shut the master off last. Remember to match the wires. If the colors don’t align, which is common, call a pro. Also, don’t overtighten screws and damage the wires or fixtures. Use plenty of electrical tape to secure wire nuts. #LifeHack Living with the stress of broken electrical devices or exposed wiring, let alone an unfinished To-Do-List, is not good for your health, sanity, or your relationships.

#HandymanTips Hey DIY’ers! DO NOT do this if you want to save your house and sanity… #Handyguy Says Do not live in the stress-shadow of an indefinite Honey-Do List, give up your valuable personal time, or create a more expensive mess trying to DIY it yourself… again! #WouldYouRather Let’s play! Would you rather… A) Hang with the buds? B) Or attempt a tile job that ends in a YouTube Fail video!? Best Answer: “A”, duh! #HandyguyTips: Whether you hire Handyguy to ease your workload or do it yourself, when choosing grout, color coordinate by matching one of the subtle colors in your tile, and always use tile spacers for a uniform and professional appearance. Using epoxy-based grout is more difficult to apply, but it will last much longer and save you endless hours of grout cleaning. #ProTips: To avoid the dreaded chipping of the tile edges when cutting, try scoring the tile first and cutting from the back. Always use a wet circular saw (outside, messy!) with a diamond blade and mask the cut line with masking tape. #LifeHack Living with the stress of broken or unfinished tiles, let alone an unfinished To-Do-List, is not good for your health, sanity, or your relationships.

#HandymanTips Hey DIY’ers! DO NOT do this if you want to save your house and sanity… #Handyguy Says Do not live in the stress-shadow of an indefinite Honey-Do List, give up your valuable personal time, or create a more expensive mess trying to DIY it yourself… again! #WouldYouRather Let’s play! Would you rather… A) Hit the open road? B) Or repaint the guest room that looked fine until the in-laws said something!? Best Answer: “A”, duh! #HandyguyTips: Whether you hire Handyguy to ease your workload or do it yourself, don’t be afraid to be bold and choose colors that personally impact you in a positive way. But, remember to keep the color choices desaturated to keep the results looking professional and to avoid the dreaded paint regret. Use high-quality matte paint for a professional look and reduce the number of coats you have to do. Saves money and time in the end. #ProTips: Strategically painted accent walls and matching ceilings can make a space feel larger and create a specific mood. Light and muted colors can also make a space feel larger. #LifeHack Living with the stress of an unfinished or drab room, let alone an unfinished To-Do-List, is not good for your health, sanity, or your relationships.

Would you rather… A) Hang with the fam? B) Or crawl under the sink with a flashlight and a prayer!? Best Answer: “A”, duh! #HandyguyTips: Whether you hire Handyguy to ease your workload or do it yourself, tighten all the plumbing washers and fixtures. Be very careful not to overtighten! And consider replacing all the washers, including the rubber ones in the pipes, hoses, and faucets. #ProTips: Disassemble plumbing and remove all the limescale (that chalky looking stuff caused by hard water), and reassemble with fresh plumbing putty or thread tape. Use commercial limescale remover for the fastest results. Don’t over-tighten slip nuts! #LifeHack Living with the stress of dripping plumbing, let alone an unfinished To-Do-List, is not good for your health, sanity, or your relationships.

Would you rather… A) Binge-watch Netflix? B) Or patch that wall hole that’s been “temporary” for 9 months!? Best Answer: “A”, duh! #HandyguyTips: Whether you hire Handyguy to ease your workload, or spend your time doing it yourself, fill holes smaller than a Quarter with quick-drying spackle. No need to mess with joint compound. Do it in thin, multiple layers, letting it dry thoroughly between layers. #ProTips: Turn your random hole into a rectangle, and reinforce it with another piece of drywall. Reinforce larger holes with mesh tape and coat with a tidy layer of joint compound. Let dry, and sand smooth. Repeat if necessary. #LifeHack Living with the stress of damaged walls, let alone an unfinished To-Do-List, is not good for your health, sanity, or your relationships.

Would you rather… A) Watch the Big Game? B) Or WD-40 that freakin’ squeaky door… again!? Best Answer: “A”, duh! #HandyguyTips: Whether you hire Handyguy to ease your workload, or spend your time doing it yourself, it is a smart idea to lube all your door hinges every 6 months. #ProTips: Use silicone spray lubrication instead of gunky grease that creates gooey dust lumps. It is less expensive, easier to use, and less messy. #LifeHack Living with the stress of constant squeaking, let alone an unfinished To-Do-List, is not good for your health, sanity, or your relationships.
