Is your FH/DH handy?

Mine is...NOT!! And I just go down into the basement, after being away for 4 days and there is a leak.

Time to call a friggen plumber

So sorry!

My DH is very handy. His dad built there house when he was little and taught him a lot about fixing things. He even patched our roof last year, I was very impressed. I'm lucky he can cook and do handy work...

He tries to be, he's pretty good, but he usually brings in reinforcements when it's major. I have discovers I am pretty handy myself lately!

My FH is handy sometimes. A lot of times he will do his best but do it wrong! Like he might try to fix a leak with duct tape.

My DH is sooo handy. He also learned to do alot since we got our house. He just helped his cousin with our new kitchen, now He's even starting to side our house with a few friends. He always finds a project. We just had a leak under our sink the other day, and DH fixed it himself. Sorry to hear you have to call a plumber.

Re: Is your FH/DH handy?

My hubby is very handy. He can put anything together and basically figure out house issues just by looking at it. Although when it comes to fixing anything up high we have to call someone. He is really afraid of heights!!

Re: Is your FH/DH handy?

oh gosh, FH is SO NOT HANDY...

my parents literally laugh at him (they are extremely handy, i can handle the basics), but he takes it in stride and always asks questions in order to learn...

Re: Is your FH/DH handy?

Mine is very handy and very anal when it comes to fixing things. His dad taught him, they own a Contracting Co.

Re: Is your FH/DH handy?

MY FH is pathetic. He needs mt to kill a fly for him. He's good with computers and electronics, by manual labor? No way! His hands are softer than mine!
