Anyone here attempted services/repairs/modifications on your own car, without hiring a mechanic?

Don’t know anything myself about mechanics tbh but these days with all the books/you tube videos available, is it worth getting a decent tool set and attempting certain jobs myself?

Or is it best to hire a mechanic for everything

What for? Driveway, patios that kind of thing?

The missus bought a Stanley one that we have used on the driveway and some decking and it works ok. Wouldn't say the build quality was amazing though and wouldn't recommend if you wanted something industrial.

I bought a B & Q own make 6 years ago and it still works fine. When I needed one for work I checked out the reviews on Screwfix and bought this one. Much cheaper than a Karcher and it works very well: https://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-ttb669 ... /5014j#_=p

£90 cheaper than the same spec Karcher

You will be buying a new one whilst the Karcher keeps going, always remember to put a service kit into a water blaster when they fail is as expensive as buying a new one once you factor time into it.

Except I won’t! The Macallister version has been used a lot for six years and still works perfectly.
