Diagnose the likely cause before buying another product.
Understand where a method works, and where it should not be used.
Use the Manual to decide, then the Pack to organise records and follow-up work.
Open any sample to page through it. These are pages from the actual files.
93 entries in 8 sections. Every one starts from an everyday problem and ends with a plain verdict.
Every entry carries one verdict:
USE ITIMPROVE ITONLY HERESKIP ITVERIFY FIRSTNEVER DO THIS
Plus a Problem finder ("wet windows", "ants in the kitchen"), 25 Cheap Wins for when you have ten minutes, and the free 27-page Printable Toolkit of worksheets, records and cards.
The Manual and its 27-page Toolkit come with both offers. These eight companions come with the Complete Pack only, because many of their pages point to Manual entries by number.
Illustrative example values in the tools are marked as examples. They are not customer results.
Eight practical tools for just $20 more than the Manual: the Complete Pack is $49, the Manual alone is $29.
Standards bodies, safety and government agencies, manufacturer documentation and published research, not social-media trends. The Manual also says where a method has limits, and when to stop and call a professional.
MrPointCheck is an independent household-advice project and YouTube channel. The idea is simple: most household tips are either free and fine, cheap and useful, or an expensive way to damage something. We test the claim against the source, then give you the verdict.
Written for English-speaking homes: the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland and Australia. Many methods apply broadly; country-specific prices, standards and rules are identified where they are given.
Choose the Manual for the knowledge, or the Complete Pack for the knowledge and eight practical tools that help you put it to work.
The Manual and Toolkit plus all 8 companions. Only $20 more.
No. This is a digital collection. The Manual and the printables are PDFs; the Complete Pack also includes an Excel workbook. Nothing is shipped.
Not necessarily. Choose the Manual if you want practical advice and a reference. Choose the Pack if you also want the planning, tracking and record-keeping tools.
It is written for English-speaking homes (US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia). Many methods apply broadly, while country-specific prices, standards and legal points are identified where they are given. Always check your local requirements for safety and legal matters.
Yes. Every entry starts from an everyday problem, gives the verdict first, then shows the steps. No tools or trade knowledge needed beyond what each entry lists.
Yes. The Toolkit, the logs, checklists and emergency cards are designed to print for your own household use. The companions are print-first PDFs, not fillable forms.
Any PDF reader for the Manual, the Toolkit and the printable companions. The Savings Dashboard is an Excel workbook (.xlsx) and needs Microsoft Excel or a compatible spreadsheet app. Money figures in it are labels only: it never converts currencies.
The Manual ($29) is the knowledge: 168 pages with a plain verdict on every entry, plus the free 27-page Printable Toolkit. The Complete Pack ($49) adds the 8 companion tools that turn it into action: planner, calendar, tracker, diagnostic guide, safety card, inventory vault, repair logbook and the Excel Savings Dashboard. That is $20 more than the Manual.
Yes. Each companion is also sold on its own: $12 each, and $15 for the Excel Savings Dashboard. See the companions page. Many of their pages point to entries in the Manual by number, so they work best alongside it; the Complete Pack ($49) includes the Manual, the free Toolkit and all eight companions.
Yes. The 27-page Printable Toolkit comes with the Manual at no extra cost, and it is also part of the Complete Pack.
