  1. Paint job. Painting your own walls seems pretty enough - in theory that is. With some patience, preparation, the right tools and the right attitude, you can paint your house by yourself. It make take more than a day to paint your house, and with the materials and other needs, it might cost you more than $2,000. When doing painting, make sure that your floors, light switches and other fixtures are protected. One trick here is to tape the edges if your hands are unsteady or if you are inexperienced.
  2. Electrical work in your house. The first rule of the electrical aspect of your home renovation is to hire licensed electricians. The safety of your home, family and the rest of your neighbours depend on this.
  3. When selecting plumbers for your renovation, again, always choose licensed ones. Improper plumbing connections can be a pain in the future. Imagine clogged drains, seepage of sewage gasses and flooding at the wee hours of the morning.
Remember that there are some things that you have to leave to professional renovation contractors to do. Some jobs such as painting or adding borders may be easy but some definitely require the inputs of experts. Make sure that you know your limits and know what you can do. Furthermore, make sure you hire the right renovation contractors for your home renovation project.
