It’s that time of the year to make home improvements whether just to make repairs or in preparation for placing a house on the market to sell. It also seems that frugality is at the top of this year’s list, e.g. replacing the front door.
Here is a list in no specific order which can be done by the homeowner(s) or contractor:
- Replace the front door
- Exterior painting (house, fence, detached garage, gazebo, etc.)
- Cleanup of the yard and beds with new plants and beauty bark
- Prune any overhanging or encroaching trees or shrubs
- Interior painting
- Carpet cleaning
- Replacing outlet covers and floor louvres
- Replacing cabinet and closet fixtures
As I said many of these jobs are do-it-yourselfers and can be accomplished in a month of weekends.
