I would love to give you the courage to take on a repair and for you to feel the same pride and satisfaction that I do when you get something fixed.
I have lots of good videos around home maintenance that have helped thousands of people so far, and a new tutorial video each fortnight.

Samsung dishwasher fault 4E error water inlet valve problem
What if you followed all the rules and cleaned the windows better than how to came from the factory. However the film is still bubbling at the edges, in some areas.
Thank you for the clear and concise instructions! Made the adjustments and now my cupboard door is closing. 😊
What if i dont have baby shampoo
You are indeed a good bloke for putting pailings on the neighbors side 😅
Awesome!!!
Thank you so much!
Using the tape to seperate the film from the backing is a god-saver... So simple, idk how I've never thought to do that before.
perfection
Thank you so so much for this to-the-point video. Saved me hours of frustration trying to figure out how the mechanism works
Cannot thank you enough for this video.
Thank you!!!!!!
Ripper video. Thank you very kindly 👍
Does anyone know if this home made solution is okay to use on marble tile? My installer used gray grout but the marble that has white sections has a haze.
helpful thank you
I have a 2008 Jeep with a soft-top. Over time the nylon mesh straps have torn off. They are attached to the aluminum spreaders with pop rivets. Drill out the old rivet; measure, cut and double back the new mesh, new pop rivet and bob's your uncle.
Can you come over and install a peep hole?! He made it look easy but I’m not quite getting it.
great video
Do you spray the windows with the shampoo and water to stick it down? Sorry if it sounds dumb just keeping myself right and wondering if it leaves streaky marks. Great video.Thanks in advance.
Very helpful video thank you
Very good ideas. Thanks for sharing.
I'm in Oz, and I'm not sure if i have Blum hinges, but i can't figure how to get the "flappy door part" to open to get the hinge out of the door. Is there a secret?
Awesome!!! 🎉Please make one about replacing the bathroom sink faucet.
Thank you so much for your video! We changed our kitchen tap without any issues following your video!! 🎉
Mate, I can't thankyou enough for such a brilliant tutorial on fixing the kitchen cabinetry. One of my kitchen cabinet door top hinge came off and no amount of Bunnings explanation text helped me, but this video helped me fix my door straight away. Cheers, -Ram
hey there. if i were to use sandpaper alone prior to water paint for indoor pvc trunking, you reckon the paint would stick?
I have a Kohler kitchen faucet and I need to replace the cartridge inside it. It has no screws and I will have to use channel lock plyers and a towel. I can scratch up the old one since Kohler sent me a new handle and cartridge as part of a warranty claim. I believe there are special tools for this job that have a rubberized surface to remove the part.
really great video. definitely will subscribe. Can I ask, is it possible to grout in the drain or do you have to use silicone? Our shower is leaking and was a prior diy job. They have grouted in an infinity drain. To clarify, there is about a 2cm space along both the front and back of the infinity drain that is just grout (i.e they didn't tile up to the edge of the drain and just used grout). The grout now has small cracks in it that i assume are the source of the leak.
WD40 is actually not a lubricant as most people think. It's actually a lubricant remover/degreaser so it has the opposite effect to lubricant in the medium-long term.
What a tremendously helpful video - concise and detailed at the same time. Thank you so much.
You did a great job. I'm really DREADING getting started. I have to use 2 pieces of tint for an extra wide window. AHHH!
This was very helpful today. I was attaching blinds to an aluminum gazebo. I decided to rivet the attachments the wrong way round initially so that I could practice how to drill out rivets (OK, maybe I didn’t decide that in advance). Excellent instructions, thank you from Canada!
Thumbs up mate!!! thank you its really helpful.
will a hair dryer help tame the curl in the tint from being rolled up?

So you didn’t like my intro Max😉 ..don’t blame you, I don’t wanna look at my ugly mug either. good on you mate, Kent
This and all your other videos have helped me heaps. So sorry I didnt find the channel sooner and note you haven’t posted anything for quite a well. so well explained and presented. Thank you and all the best.
Oh thanks Bob for that lovely comment 🙂 glad to have you here mate. I have taken a hiatus, but glad it’s still helping y’all out. Kent
Fantastically helpful video. I would have ripped the door off the cabinet if I had not first watched this video. Door fixed in about 5 minutes! Thanks a lot!
Just stumbled across your channel mate. Real good info. I'll have a crack at my shower this weekend. Cheers 👍
that would cost siiixty-siiix dollars in Australia bro
This only works if you have that type of hinges.
I HAVE OLD FASHION OUTSIDE HINGES....DOORS TO TIGHT TO CLOSE AND I JUST WANT TO TAKE OFF A BIT OF WOOD____IS IT BETTER TO SAND OR FILE OR WHAT? IF SAND WHAT TYPE OF SANDER WOULD YOU USE FOR THAT THIN WOOD SURFACE?
The best flyscreen removal & reinstall for my window! Thank you so much for posting this video 😉
Good on you mate! Awesome job👍
Great video mate. Very informative and explained well. 👍
Thanks Choppa👍 Kent
Have a cabinet with these type euro hinges... doors will not close. Stay open about two inches at the middle. Loosening the back screw definitelt lets them close, but the slot the screw is in is not a closed hole like the ones you show here. It is a horizontal slot open at the back. If the screw is loosened enough to let the doors close, the doors are no longer connected to the cabinet and fall off when opened. Cannot tell you how much I hate this style of hinges.
Hey Daz, I’ve had this happen before too.. it turned out to be a worn out/damaged hinge (x2) and needed replacement. Best of luck 👍Kent
Even my deep socket is not deep enough to unscrew. Really struggling
Hey Judah, that’s a shame🙄 It may be time to invest in one of these.. amzn.to/4e9sOjW Best of luck mate, Kent
Aha that will solve the problem. Unfortunately it’s out of stock on amazon at the moment. Other option I have is to remove the whole sink. Remove the old tap and replace with new before reattaching the sink.
installing 3 today. Yeah 2 people is essential for a good job. I had so much trouble getting the back film off.. never thought of using 2 bits of tape.. thanks for the assist :)
Glad I could help Gavin, cheers for the comment mate 🤙Kent
THANKYOU! I was not sure why my cabinet door was not closing fully you saved my sanity!
Sanity still intact, well done mate👍 Kent
Obviously an Australian (great) lucky you, poly pipe, unfortunately for me, old steel pipe, but what a great episode, love the safety and the can do attitude.
Thanks for the great comment Camden! Cheers mate, 🤙 Kent
What % VLT film did you get from PolyTint? They range from 5% - 30% and im not sure what will be best
Hey Kate, 15-30% VLT from memory - reducing glare but still allows light. there is a link to the product I used here.. www.polyfilm.com.au/home-and-office-window-tinting The higher VLT percentage = more light transmission . Best of luck, Kent
🙏🏼🌺🌹🙏🏼
Cute comment, thanks for the flowers 😉 Kent
