Synopsis

Most of us can solve for X but can’t fix a running toilet, a tripped breaker, or a squeaky door without Googling it in a panic. That ends here.

Written by an industrial maintenance pro who’s spent decades keeping million-dollar machines alive, this book distills those skills into a no-nonsense, funny, and practical survival guide for everyday life. Think of it as home maintenance without the jargon, YouTube rabbit holes, or overpriced “handyman” visits.

Inside you’ll learn how to:

• Reset a breaker without frying yourself.

• Stop a running toilet before it runs your water bill up.

• Master the 10 tools every household actually needs.

• Pull off emergency fixes with duct tape, zip ties, and confidence.

• Know when to call a pro — and how not to get ripped off.

Short, punchy, and packed with real solutions, The Simple Guide to Fixing Anything is for anyone who doesn’t have the time, money, or patience to “call a guy” every time something breaks. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you’ll finally feel in charge of your own house.

Stop panicking. Start fixing.
