DIY home projects can lead to big savings — but it’s better to leave some tasks to the pros. Here are some of the best and worst projects to tackle yourself.

Best DIYs:

🖌️ Painting. Interior painting is manageable for many people with patience and the right supplies.

💡 Replacing simple fixtures. Light fixtures, shower heads, and doorknobs are often simple to swap out.

📱 Installing smart gadgets. Wireless doorbells, locks, and more often come with easy-to-follow instructions.

Worst DIYs:

🔌 Electrical work. The risk of fire from faulty wiring far outweighs any cost savings.

🛀 Adding a bath or shower. Leaks from poor plumbing can seriously damage your home.

🔨 Installing carpet or flooring. You might end up with an uneven floor or gaps that let in drafts and moisture.
