    Good grief!!

    I often watch in amazement at Property Ladder and wonder about the homeowners taking on the plumbing and electrical work themselves. Plumbing can lead to a mess at worst but electrical could mean bye-bye. I suppose with the money they save, their family could buy a nice burial plot.

    My partner and I love property ladder, selling houses and how to be a property developer. They are great shows to watch. The american reno shows on the how to channel are so scary. Over there is seems anyone can do electrical and plumbing work. The show is like “this is so easy” as they plumb a bathroom or wire up a kitchen!!!!
    Things like tiling and painting is all sweet but that other stuff if you get wrong could damage your house big time or yourself
