I probably don't save on the parts, since repair companies likely buy at wholesale. In our area, a service call costs about $70 and labor is $50-$100 per hour.<br /><br />An additional benefit is that I don't have to wait around part of the day for the service technician.Super Saverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11172939501208456194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32639162.post-70716059268017517552010-03-02T21:00:30.967-05:002010-03-02T21:00:30.967-05:00Wow, that's awesome that you could fix the wir...Wow, that's awesome that you could fix the wiring in the stove yourself. My garbage disposal has been broken for months. I need to find a handyman! :) How much did you save by doing your own repairs? Ever thought about doing a price comparison to show the savings?TheDebtDarlinghttp://www.thedebtdarling.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32639162.post-12478968023879013172010-03-02T12:47:38.304-05:002010-03-02T12:47:38.304-05:00Saving money on DYI home repairs ROCK ! ! !

I have done commercial/residential/industrial electrical for pay, so am comfortable re-wiring, installing lights, switches, panels etc. Plumbing is good, main thing is to have the water source turned off. I hate painting, drywall is "scary" and my carpentry skills are actually negative on a positive scale . . .sekishinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809260529607865477noreply@blogger.com
