You can handle repainting your porch on your own. Make sure the paint you choose is of good quality. Make sure you use the same paint type as the existing paint. Oil-based paints make good trims due to their longevity but are bad ideas outside on decks or flooring, since snow makes them slippery.
Be certain to dust all accent decor often. Dust bunnies can start creeping up after a few days, and that encourages allergens to interfere with your life. When you dust your accessories, you clear away dirt and check for fleas, spiders and ants.
Use a sponge on your drywall. Rather than sanding the seams in your drywall, sponge them. A wet sponge can smooth the seams of drywall just as well as sandpaper. This also alleviates dust production caused by sanding.
Connecting PVC pipes is easy and only requires you to use PVC primer and cement. Without these items, the pipes won’t stay together and liquids may leak from them. Make sure the pipes have no water on their surfaces.
