Are you more of a Do-it-yourself or “hire someone to do it” kind of person?

On simple things, I mostly try to do it myself. But for household repairs and other stuff I don’t know much of, I don’t attempt to do it myself. I’m afraid instead of fixing the problem, I might just end messing it up. I’d rather hire someone for anything major or for house repairs. And speaking of house repairs, I just called the plumber to fix the leaking faucet outside in the garden.

I am also do it myself person. And same like you I am not good with such repairing thing. Husband is hands on with those things or else I call for a professional help.

I once tried fixing that garden faucet, I had water everywhere and the faucet is still leaking! Now the plumber will fix what I ‘fixed’.

@pitsipeahie I call for some serious matters, but I try to do the most I can myself.

That is good! If you can and know how then why not. Saves the expenses of having someone else do the job.

Depends on what needs to be done.
Sometimes, doing it yourself costs more.

At first, I like to try to do things myself. And if I can't do it than ask for help. But certain things you have to hire a pro right away.

Yes, that’s true. Though it can be a trial and error thing.

Normally hire someone. It's done quicker and much more nicer than if I do it myself.

If it small issues I do my self, but for higher repairs, I call a plumber, electrician according to the needs
