Five quick fixes for common home problems: adjust a loose door latch, seal window drafts, repair a cupboard hinge, stop a scraping door, and flatten raised carpet corners. Each takes minutes and prevents expensive repairs down the line.
If your door is loose like this, it means the latch plate shifted, so do this and it disappears instantly. If cold air leaks through your windows, it's because there are gaps that they escape through. So do this and they disappear. If your cupboard hinge is broken, then do this to make it brand new. If your door scrapes the floor, then do this. Move the door a few times and it will open smoothly. If the corners of your carpet stand up, then do this. Let it melt and then it will lie flat. These are four maintenance hacks you need to know. Send it to your friends and property managers.
