Most of us are guilty of loving a good DIY project. Not only can it save you a little money, but it can also allow you to take the time to learn a new trade. There are some projects, however, that can be incredibly dangerous if not completed to perfection. Here are a few examples of DIY projects that should be left for the professionals.
To conclude, there are some DIY projects that may be too dangerous to execute as a DIY project. Hiring a professional to make electrical improvements, to remove unwanted foliage, or to update kitchen appliances will not only ensure that the job is done correctly and protect you from injury, but it could also avoid running into legal matters. Of course, if your DIY project does go wrong, you can always rely on SERVPRO of Parker and Northeast Hood Counties to help clean up the mess. We are available 24/7 at 817-596-8714.

Frozen Water Pipes
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!” That means cold weather and high risk of frozen water pipes. If the water pipes in your home run anywhere without electrical heating, or the heating system fails, they are more prone to freeze.
You may be wondering, “why does this matter?”, or “won’t the water in the pipes eventually melt again?” Here’s what you need to know! Frozen pipes are a danger to your home because they can burst from the high amounts of pressure.
If this happens, water could leak into your house, cause damage to your belongings, or mold could start growing. Here are some tips on preventing a frozen pipe.
1) During winter, turn your thermostat up a few degrees.
2) Open some cabinets in your bathrooms to allow warm air circulation to the pipes in the walls.
3) If water pipes run through the garage, keep the garage doors shut.
