Managing Your Home Improvement To Do List |

Don't get overwhelmed- start a list

This is the last week for National Home Improvement month. What projects did you get completed? Just because the month is ending and you may not have gotten all of the tasks you wanted done, doesn?t mean you should give up.? Use this last week to create a plan of attack to get those chores completed.

Start your plan by creating a list of projects. It doesn?t matter how big or small, just brainstorm all of the things you need to get done. If you noticed your house losing heat in the winter add installing new windows.? Is your driveway looking spotty from car leaks?? Add power wash the driveway to the list.? By taking the time to see what all needs to be done we can move to the next step to organize the tasks. Remember you don?t have to get everything done this summer and you definitely don?t have to do it all yourself.

Next we organize the list. Create two columns and add all of the things that you can do yourself, like power washing the driveway.? In the second column add the items that you will need help with or may need to hire a professional. If you plan on building a retaining wall, you?ll want big strong helpers. If you plan on building a patio cover you may want to add electrical channeling, this should be left to the professionals unless you are a contractor or electrician.

At this point you have a pretty good idea of what projects you will be able to get accomplished. You can add an estimated time of completion to each project. Washing your driveway can be done in a few hours, at most, so you could get a second project done that day.? For the second half of your list you need to decide which tasks are the most important to you and if you have the funds to complete them. Many companies offer financing, so that should help.? Pick one or two items from this list and start saving your money.? It may take longer to get this side done, but the confidence that comes with using a licensed reputable company will be well worth the money spent.

Hopefully you feel much less overwhelmed now that you have organized your to do list for the summer.?? Just remember you don?t have to do everything this summer or do everything by yourself. ?And don?t forget the most important part, have some fun in between all of this work.
