Depending on the person, attempting do-it-yourself home improvement projects might be one of the best—or most dreaded—aspects of owning a home. Although completing something on your own is personally rewarding and can save you significant money, it can also yield amateurish results. Furthermore, it's easy for DIYers to undertake a project with lofty ambitions, only to realize that they are in over their heads; these situations can cost them time, money, and even safety. In order to better understand the pitfalls associated with various projects, home improvement website ImproveNet conducted a survey in 2019 of 2,000 DIYers to determine which DIY home projects are most popular—and which ones leave homeowners filled with regret. Although this survey was conducted a couple of years ago there are many aspects that are quite similar to today's DIYers. With a lot of people stuck at home in 2021 and of course most of 2020 a lot of people have decided that their living situation needs to change and they are the person to make that change. Find out if your project made one of these lists!
