Hello everyone,
Just joined and introducing myself.
My name is Dave and I'm a self-trained (google and youtube) Handyman.
2 years ago I bought a 112 year old house that needed just a little work. Mostly all aesthetics. fundamentals were all good.
just a couple projects I've done:
-laid a 25x25 SF paver patio (had some help)
-removed 25x25 SF concrete patio and replaced with sod
-removed carpet and refinished ~900 SF of hardwood floors and stairwell
-installed custom windowsills
-installed a couple ceiling fans and chandeliers
-rewired 1rst floor electric
-converted house electric from 60
amp fuses to 220 circuit breaker (had help on that one)
-built and installed custom wainscoting panels
-skim coated LR, DR and entryway walls
-built an additional bedroom
-built a window seat
-built a new front porch (had some help)
-custom made several pieces of furniture
I have a few other projects in the works, which is why I joined this forum. I'm always asking questions and I think most of my pros at work are getting tired of it.
I want to redo some ductwork and at least prep for installing central air. Add a walk-in closet in the master bedroom. Would love to add dormers and remodel the attic as livable space. And convert the upstairs kitchen into a laundry room
Anyway...that's just a little about me.
thanks,
Dave
