Patching a Hole in the Wall

It is always a good idea to keep a small can of paint that you use to paint your rooms. At the very least, you should hold onto the paint sample that you used so that you can reorder it if necessary. Why is this important? Whenever you move a picture, you’re going to create a hole in the wall. That whole can easily be filled with a little spackle paste. Then dab the paint over the paste and your wall is as good as new.

Fixing a Leaky Faucet

Once you fix a leaky faucet, you’ll wonder why you ever called a plumber before! First thing you need to do is shut off the water from under the faucet. You may not know it but there are two valves, one for hot one for cold. Both should be shut off. With an adjustable wrench you can unscrew the faucet remove it and replace the washer. That should do the trick. You may also need to unscrew where the water comes out of the faucet and replace that filter. All of these replacements are universal. Meaning the hardware store will have the part that you need. Once the job is done, screw everything in tight, turn the water on and you’re good to go.

Replacing the showerhead

When you see how easy it is to fix a leaky faucet, you can take those skills to your shower. Using the same adjustable wrench unscrew the showerhead. They should be plumbing tape wrapped around the threads. You’ll want to remove that and replace it with new plumbing tape. This is the white stuff that looks like thread or dental floss. Screw the new shower head on and you’re ready for action.

Replacing Air Vents

Every event in your home that has a filter will need that filter replace at least once a month. The size of that filter is written right on that item. Although you might not have noticed it before stores like Target and Wal-Mart stock these filters.

Taking care of these DIY fixes will give you a great sense of accomplishment. That doesn’t mean you have to take on everything as a DIY task.

Upgrade to Programmable Thermostat

If you haven’t done so already, then you should install a programmable thermostat. This will ensure that you are not running the air-conditioning or heat when nobody is home. You could turn on your HVAC system half an hour before your scheduled to get home from work and your home will be just the way you wanted. It’s also easy to set your temperature at a proper 68° when your home and drop it down to 55° at night. You’ll be amazed at how keeping your temperatures at those levels can have a major impact on your utility bills.

Turn Off Your Electronics

Speaking of utility bills, do you turn off your computer monitor at the end of the day? Do you unplug phone chargers when they’re not in use? Those are the kinds of things that can be a drain on energy. Why pay for electricity that you’re not even using?

Clean Your Refrigerator Coils

Your refrigerator is always running as it should. But is it running efficiently? Take a look at the back of the refrigerator and wipe down those coils with a damp cloth or vacuum. This will help the refrigerator run as it should and not overwork itself.

Carpool

If you have kids in school, then you should definitely be working out a carpool with other parents. Not only will this save you on gas but it can also free up some time when it’s not your turn to pool.

Compost

If you do any kind of gardening, then you should also be composting. This is essentially a container that will be filled with some dirt and all of your kitchen scraps. Into that mix goes some worms who feast on that material. What’s left over is prime fertilizer that you can use throughout the year. Very simple and very green.
