If I got one bid that was kinda high, and I knew I could do it myself in an hour, I would just do it. Because hiring a vendor would mean I would spend an hour dealing with them, then have to pay them on top of that. That's the "emotional" component the wife wanted to be freed from. So bottom line, she's pissed that he didn't go down the road of emotional drudgery like she would have chosen for herself and just did the job instead.

The article kind of goes off the rails after that but this complaint seems both fair and easy to understand.
