I know we're less handy than we used to be, but this still seems low...
Someone asked 2,000 homeowners about various type of tools, and if they're comfortable using them or not.
And only 52% of people are confident using a screwdriver.
The weirdest part is that's also the tool we're MOST confident with. Pliers are next at 47%, followed by a wrench at 46%.
I guess it makes sense then that the repairs we're most comfortable doing ourselves DON'T require tools. Number one is replacing a lightbulb.
The top five D.I.Y. things we can do ourselves are replacing a lightbulb, cleaning our dryer vent, swapping out filters in a furnace or air conditioner, testing a smoke alarm, and tightening the hinge on a door.
One in three people also think they could unclog a sink, 31% can fix a running toilet, 29% can locate a stud in their wall, and 27% could replace a light switch if they needed to.
