DIY disasters prove costly
More than half (51 per cent) confess to having at least one unfinished DIY project lingering in their home. With the cost of each job averaging £140.89, a whopping £2,011,480,093 worth of fix-ups are lying in wait across the UK.
Another cost lies in the fact nearly one million women in the UK said they’ve requested their partner buy them a gift to make up for their home-wrecking efforts.
