Garage Office Realtor says have Duct Tape when getting ready to sell

By

Garage Office Realtor says you should have some Duct Tape when you get ready to sell your home.  So many times something breaks, a box splits out, a plastic cover has a crack, the microwave vent needs sealed, the insulation on the HVAC needs replaced, and the list goes on and on.....

 

Duct tape now comes in a variety of colors and they also have a tin foil tape which is really handy for HVAC work.  Maybe your duct work has a tear in it and that needs to be corrected, so what do you use?  That is correct, get the duct tape and make the repair.  If you get the real cheap brand then you will have a problem tearing the tape so go ahead and spend the additional $1.00 and purchase the "good stuff".

Folks, don't use Duct Tape for electrical repairs it is not designed for those issues, use electrical tape.

 I love your garage office, Jim.  Duct tape is one of the wonders of the modern world but some people do take it a bit far. I saw a toilet bowl that someone had duct taped. Just a bit too far, don't you think?

I agree, taping the toilet is a little beyond the intended use, and I noticed, St. Thomas, what a beautiful place.
