Do It Yourself
Ask a Question
Today I received my shoe rack parcel. It took 2 hours to complete the assembly. Generally I am not a DIY person.
Are you? Which took more time to assemble and which took less time?
as a single parent i do all my DIY not easy and does take time, wardrobes are the worse take hours, little things not so much time.
I do nearly all DIY myself, as my parents have done. My wife would probably pay for someone to come and hand a picture
I love building flat pack furniture and love doing DIY, I find seeing the fruits of my labour is really worthwhile
I tend to do it all myself, flat packs for the most part don't read instructions and rarely goes wrong, as for fixing things again I do it but I won't vouch for the quality of my work
I generally will have a go at anything... not saying everything i try and do turns out great but at least i tried painting wallpapering general maintenance I’m not too bad at.
Sort of.
Today I cleaned a pipe which was completely blocked with small rocks, soil, etc, and one decently big rock that somehow got in there. I figured I'd better clean that before it starts raining heavily and with the water now going through, it's much better.
I do what I know and can, and am happy to try new things, too.
I do all our DIY, I'm quite handy and can do most jobs, I'm self taught as well, wallpapering is my favourite job to do, hate painting though, especially glossing
I do all the diy myself I'm no expert but I try if my other half does it i can promise you it will get broken
I’m not great with flat pack furniture. I buy stuff from ikea, spend hours assembling and swear never to buy from there again. A few years later i forget how much of a hassle it was and the cycle starts again.
I’m happy for my husband to do DIY. Years ago I asked for a different sized drill bit to put a picture up, he couldn’t have done it any quicker. Admittedly I didn’t check for any electric cables in the wall.
