Sometimes, you have an idea for improving your home, but you’re not sure about the next steps. This also applies to everyday maintenance.
For instance, you’re sick of looking at dated wallpaper and wonder if you can just paint over it. Or you pull up an area rug and notice that your wood floor is faded.
Maybe you’ve spotted mice in the house and want to place traps, but you’re not sure about the best locations for them. Or you start to walk upstairs and notice the handrail and newel post have loosened.
