Additionally, some of these repairs can be very expensive, so here is a list of costly repairs that you need to consider. One of the worst home repairs you can be faced with is problems with the foundation of your home, which will need to be fixed instantly and can cost up to $20,000. Another regrettable home repair is a roof replacement and while you may only have to do this once in your lifetime, it can set you back up to $10,000. You’ll most likely experience some sort of water damage in your home, which can lead to widespread repairs to your walls, floors and other appliances.
