The above is the only important part of your post. It's HER refrigerator. It doesn't bother
HER. It's not your place to unilaterally decide to fix something that she doesn't perceive as
a problem.

Now please go away, and don't come back unless you have some actual home repair
problems.

Just. Go. Away.

I would assume he'd ask her before doing it. But like his last question,
even if she gives the OK, if it were me, I'd be concerned about being
on the hook if something goes wrong. Like the screws
are rusted, break off, he gets it off, can't get it on the other side,
etc. I guess it comes down to how inconvenient it really is and if
it's worth it.
