I'd call someone to come and repair it too. Some men have never learned how to do some things. My son-in-law is a really nice guy, but he was raised by his Mom and by foster care and he never learned how to do things around the house. Whenever my daughter asks him to do things she knows that he gets in a really bad mood over it and they fight. When he does do things they're half done or not done correctly (not always, but most of the time).

If you just call someone to do it you can get this behind you and get everything back to normal. When you call someone ask how long it will take and then figure out if you would be better off at your Mom's for a few days. No need to be stressing out over things that can't get done.
