Irrigation (sprinklers)
I spent more money last year on remodeling than you went into student loan debt for academis including the Beko (Bosch couldn't come through) dishwasher.BennyBeaver said:I’ve done all of them except Tile and Baze’s specialty.

But money doesn't grow on trees, and sometimes a man's gotta do some things around the house to make ends meet. Also, sometimes it's hard to find trades people who are worth a shit and don't want to charge through the Moon.
When I moved to the High Desert I had to become an sprinkler whisperer out of necessity. The irrigation guysm are always backed up and I can't be relying upon them every time a head breaks or needs adjustment. The only thing I can't do is the fall system block out.
Electrical scares the shit out of me though and I suck at plumbing. -
OtherUsing my cell phone to call a plumber, landscaper, carpenter, electrician who won't fuck things up.
The Throbber doesn't sound poor.

OtherI done flooring in two houses, landscaping in three, built add-ons to a barn, shop, and a general wood storage shed - that holds 8 cords of wood.
Good choice in Plumbling - I have friends that are electricians so they do that. Concrete work I have done small jobs and save the big ones for the folks that know what they are doing.
I did all the design work and submitted the plans for a major remodel and also a 20 x 15 deck complete with iron gate and lattice work. almost forgot in a previous marriage another remodel design for an addition and decking
Edit: Fencing
Now you know why I bought a trailer and travel. -
