Handy Mandy I love helping old homes last, yards flourish, and when the people I serve can relax and enjoy their homes.

While I bond with my family (including new twin babies!), I shall live vicariously through your gardens! Landscape designing is bringing me extra joy this summer since I haven’t been as able to get my hands dirty in my own garden ❤️

Soon, I’m going to post about this abominable “professional” planting job done by a local “fancy” nursery. I can’t even begin right now, I’m just so mad about this! So much metal, so many nails, so much rope, so many crossing branches… how dare they take advantage of people like this.

Whew! Yesterday was a windy one! My first client of the day had a spot on the ceiling in the first of a two story home with no water pipes above the first floor.

Weird right? I found a gutter downspout leak that led to water in the basement, tested the ceiling as over 50% waterlogged, windows and siding needing sealed/caulked, and the real culprit… four square feet of missing shingles!

Moral of the story: moisture is the devil. Always check a home roof to basement, gutters to ceilings.

Mystery Monday: it’s a wired alarm system and I have to find out what adapter we need for replacements. Maybe I should message the fire department? I’ll start at Google…

When that one tiny hot mess (washer won’t agitate) turns into finding several hot messes.

No worries, two Lowe’s trips and an ACE trip, wet boots, and a part delivery have this house on its way to new Pex from the ceiling, a new drain line, and a new wash basin! Oh and we are reusing the old cement sink because let’s be real, no one wants to haul that thing up the stairs. All it takes is some TSP and mixed epoxy to make it look new!

And yea, of course the washer works already!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays!Love,Fitz

You know what’s fun? Companies often hide the service manual way up underneath a washer 🙄
