Given that most of us around the world are working remotely, the amount of time we spend at home has increased. Use and wear & tear of home appliances and services have also increased. It seems to be worthwhile to learn how to do some of the home projects in a DIY (Do It Yourself) mode.
There are so many appliances and services we seem to be using while all of us are staying at home for double or triple the time compared to 2019 or earlier! Calling a Handyman for almost every single task can be quite expensive – and also these days, experts and licensed professionals seem to be mandated for many more home projects. Listing some of them below that can be useful to learn – if not as an additional source of income – but just to save a few hundred dollars (during the pandemic).
