Considering a home improvement project so you can get top dollar when selling your home? Some projects are easy to do yourself, but for safety purposes, leave these jobs to the professionals:
Plumbing/gas [which could lead to leaks and flooding]
Wall demolition [pipes and wiring may be behind the wall or it could be load bearing]
Electricity [which can cause electrocution or electrical fires]
Roofing and decking [injuries from falls]
Landscaping [improper draining/flooding]
