PLEASE Use Caution When Watching Home Building And Repair Videos
This video is about the potential problems of following home improvement videos without due diligence. The speaker starts the video with his experience of pulling out a planter filled with dirt, which is a common problem caused by people following bad advice online.
He then goes on to give several examples of such bad advice, including building a planter over a driveway, sanding a wooden floor too much, and installing a water heater without proper support.
The speaker emphasizes that just because a video has a lot of views and likes, it doesn't mean that the information is correct. He also warns viewers to be aware of the potential long-term problems of following DIY videos without considering factors like climate and building codes.
Bonus tips:
Do your research and consult with professionals before starting any home improvement project.
Be aware of the potential long-term problems of DIY projects, and factor those into your decision-making.
Don't just rely on online videos for information. Look for reputable sources such as books, magazines, and websites.
If you're not sure about something, ask a professional for help.
Be patient and allow yourself time to learn new skills.
