Has the Covid-19 lockdown highlighted home maintenance and repairs that have been worrying you for longer than you care to admit?
Before trying to DIY or guilt-nagging a family member into doing those jobs, consider the three chief reasons for contacting an affordable total home maintenance company.
Three Reasons To Avoid DIY
1: Safety At all times, and especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, it’s important to avoid arriving in hospital emergency rooms with cuts, breaks and concussions incurred while tackling repairs that should be done by an professional.
2: Skill The key to a quick, clean and successful repair or maintenance job is experience. Qualified, experienced tradespeople and handymen know the best ways to save you money while getting your jobs done quickly, without fuss.
3: Savings in time and money Employ a home maintenance company whose tradespeople and handymen have all the specialist tools needed, work on an affordable fixed price as quoted, and who provide a guarantee. This overcomes the frustration of hunting for quotes from multiple trades.
Servicing Perth and Fremantle, NexGen Tradies and Handymen can save you money with fixed quotes at affordable rates, materials at cost and a 12-month guarantee.
Quotes are obligation-free and are conducted under Covid-19 protocols of social distancing, using protective personal equipment.
Aside from bigger jobs, such as mending leaky roofs or storm-damaged fences, the company quotes on your small jobs and any ‘outside the box’ jobs. All the ‘around-the-home fix-ups’, including garden work, are within the company’s scope, allowing for integrated care of your home. Free Annual Property Inspection

Do – It -‘Yourselfers’ At Risk
Possibly the most important factor in using a home maintenance company is safety.
The Injury Control Council of WA has warned that do-it-yourselfers put themselves at risk through not knowing how to operate tools with safety.
It is on record that home owners tend to do maintenance jobs during long weekends or annual leave, or any time they have to be at home for extended periods. This is when most in-home injuries occur.
Contributing factors include: alcohol consumption; lack of protective equipment; removing safety measures; and disregarding safety instructions.
Statistics show chainsaws, circular saws, lawn mowers, nail guns and grinders cause the most serious of the DIY injuries. Falls from ladders while cleaning gutters, repairing roofs and pruning trees account for the highest number of DIY injuries. Power tools cause a high number of injuries to limbs, eyes, necks and heads.
Basically, the authorities know an untrained and inexperienced do-it-yourselfer should not work with specialised tools.
