Hey guys
By now you've probably seen some of my threads about fixing, repainting, etc. I figure it's best perhaps to start from square 1 and ask for more comprehensive advice on maybe what things we really should be focusing on most. To give some background, our condo unit was built in 1989 and a lot of the original furnishings are still in place... off the top of my head: tile floors, fireplace tiling, kitchen cabinets, dated appliances (not stainless), all carpet except tiled floors and kitchen, original style baseboards, original limited recessed lighting (first generation cans), original vanities/mirrors/lightning/tubs/wall tiling in the bathrooms...
Currently we have just started undertaking repainting of the cabinets to all white. Hopefully this is a good move that opens the kitchen up a little more.
I also went around and patched up as many superficial cracks that I could find, but still need to do more of that around the place.
Are there any other things you guys would recommend? Or of the items I listed, are there certain ones I absolutely *should* do, like pulling all the carpet out and installing flooring? And are there certain things better left to a contractor or handyman to do if we don't quite have the capacity as DIYers?
