DIY or farm it out? An informal poll.
Hi!
About to start my first diy reno on a property.
My workforce will likely be yours truly plus one hired helper.
What would you tackle on your own vs hiring a pro on?
1. demo of parquet and vinyl flooring in living and kitchen
2. Demo of tile in baths
3. Painting cabinets
4. Interior paint
5. Changing bath vanity
6. Changing light fixtures
I’m pretty handy but not a professional construction background.
Thanks in advance for any tips!

I did demo, paint, flooring, light fixtures, and replaced the toilet. I contracted out roof, siding, gutters, drywall, framing.
While I saved thousands by doing work myself I will say that I am way slower than contractors. Not only that but I made mistakes that wasted time.
