We either have one at home, or know of one. You know, that hubby who thinks he is Mr. Fix Everything. And, while we do appreciate their skills and their go-get-’em attitude, we all know that there are certain things that they should leave to the professionals … so behold, the Honey-Don’t list. (Disclaimer: Share with a cold drink and a kiss on the cheek.)
Anything that has to do with the MAIN electrical system
This should be left to a certified electrician for their safety and the safety of the house!
Detailed plumbing
There’s no reason he needs to be opening valves and moving anything that has to do with the water going in and out of your home!
Large tree removal
Just picture a ladder and a chainsaw. Need I say more?
Knocking down walls
If one of those walls is a weight-bearing wall, you will end up with the second floor on the first. Not a good move!
Anything that has to do with the gas line in the home
If the gas line is left open even a bit, gas will expel and deadly carbon monoxide will fill up the home. Your husband definitely will not want this one on his conscience.
Roof repair
Husband + Being on the roof + Large gust of unpredictable Florida wind = Possible disaster.
Air conditioning repair
With the summer temperatures already climbing, do not risk it! One night in the heat and your marriage may be on the line.
Building furniture
Although he may start with good intentions, it is cheaper in the long run to buy that rocking chair for your nursery. Work smarter, not harder!
Sewage line repair
The word “sewage” should stop him in his tracks.
