We are looking to buy a home where these items will need to be replaced. My husband says he and his father can do this.
My objection is that these two replaced his mom’s about 15 years ago, and it looks pretty rough these days. I want to know if that’s a reasonable lifespan for these products or if these two gentlemen think their skills are better than they really are.
