Many homeowners are attracted to do-it-yourself home projects. In fact, homeowners report that they felt even happier when they DIY compared to when they hire a professional to handle a project. However we were shocked to learn how many people get hurt while performing DIY projects especially when it comes to ladders. Accidents involving ladders landed nearly 200,000 people in the emergency room last year! We certainly don’t want to discourage people from working on their homes as one of the pleasures of homeownership is the ability to take on projects yourself and customize your home in a way that truly makes it your own. Just make sure you are being careful and using your tools properly. And you might want to bone up on ladder safety by clicking the link below:
