Do It Yourself Repair

rickmeister asked:


My girlfriend…is living in a house from her divorced husband…She is looking to me for home improvments such as building a new deck on the back of the house..a new porch on the front of the house…a new gable? Also put in a bay window…put in windows around the whole house..Carpet the stairs..carpet the upstairs..paint the whole house and drywall the basement, put up new closet doors…put up shelving..remove and reinstall kitchen cabinets…Tile and grout both bathrooms and the kitchen..make a wall down in the basement put in a drop ceiling with lights..do trim work…put a fence aroung the front of the yard with mortar and rock field stone post..build retaining walls…do brick paving..put in new doorwalls….Etc…I am not really a home repair guy…but am willing to try and save money on labor cost…she says if we do all this the home will sell better…understandable. I just want to make her happy!! Is there a ways to learn and succesfully meet all these projects? Im lost?
