Failed Quarantine Projects

A few weeks ago, we heard an interesting report about the goings-on in folks' homes during Covid Quarantine.  It turns out that many families have been trying their hands at DIY home-renovations and repairs during lock down. Now, this didn't come as a complete shock, as many of our recent customers seem to have caught the "home-renovation bug" during shelter-in-place orders. What surprised us, were the RESULTS of a recent survey done about these DIY projects. It read,

"Unfortunately, 7 out of 10 people said that these [diy] projects didn’t turn out the way they imagined..." and "One in 10, unfortunately, admitted that the finished project actually looked worse than before the work was started."  

That is a huge majority of disappointed folks and for that, we couldn't help but feel frustrated on their behalfs. Here are the Top 3 things that went wrong with those projects, according to the poll:

1. Incorrect Assembly - Mistakes made in the installation or building process
2. Incorrect pieces or parts purchased - An underestimation of necessary supplies or mistakes made in purchasing.
3. Injuries suffered as a result of the project - Likely due to inexperience using equipment or improper safety materials (Ouch!!)

We noticed that kitchen counter top updates were on the list of these failed projects, which is definitely something our team is equipped to help with.
