"The first thing you need to consider is whether you're capable of doing the job, and whether you've got the time," says David Doughty, a DIY instructor. Indeed, if you've only got a couple of weeks up your sleeve, the last thing you want to do is create a monster. With most tradesmen shutting up shop over Christmas, you may find yourself up the proverbial very quickly, and nothing stinks more than kicking off the working year without a functioning toilet. For this http://superrr.hostzi.com reason, David recommends taking on small projects rather than major works. Think simple maintenance and repair jobs that won't cause too much disruption to the household, like the three Ps: painting, plastering and polishing. "The most popular DIY class we have at this time of year is how to sand and polish a timber floor," says David.
