Home repair hacks everyone could use around the house

Some projects have you drilling into the ceiling, in order to hang a hook or a light fixture, for example. There’s only one problem – it’s an unbelievable hassle. The drilling part isn’t too bad if you have a high enough ladder. The real problem starts when you have to completely cover that particular room in sheets, making it look like you live in a haunted house.

Use a plastic bottle to save you from an overhead mess

If you don’t, everything will be covered in a layer of debris you’ll never be able to get rid of. What’s the solution? Simply cut off the top of a plastic bottle and put it over the drill. Anything that falls off will pool in there, and just empty it when it gets full.
