Have you ever done any renovations or other household work with your partner? What was the project?

I have always loved doing that, I feel it strengthens the relationship and teaches me things I didn't know before 😊

Yes! We're both Architects and have a 'severe' passion for design and layout. We both have pinterest boards dedicated to projects we want to do on the house. He is very knowledgeable about plumbing and electrical work, and I have a passion for furniture making, wood working and interior design. So our combined knowledge works really well hand-in-hand. We also share the same interest in design styles, which is helpful. A few of the projects include: kitchen remodel, adding a second storey to the house, adding a garage/wood working studio/craft room. Bathroom remodel, making furniture for the livingroom and other areas around the house. We redid the landscaping, etc. We like being crafty :)

I did but to be honest, we are just not as good as men. We tend to stand in their way instead 🥱

When I was married very long time ago and we were going to have a child we both did the nursery together or his room   But when we divorced , I gave her the house , I give her everything and I bought another house after
The death settled And I am totally into buying something fixing it up and selling it Right now I have just about everything. I need to remodel my kitchen and living room  If I just had a girlfriend
I doubt she would help me not unless you absolutely wanted to But i'm just about ready to do it , and I have a plan , I'll get in and get out of there can work on another project if one comes up

Yes, plenty. There's always an argument half way through any big project though lol. I stare at code and numbers all day, so working with my hands is refreshing. I enjoy DIY projects. We installed slate walls in our home. Crown molding. Built some furniture. Installed hardwood floors. Have redone a kitchen. My wife and I own some rental properties so we've learned how to do a lot of these things through experience.

My aim on GAG is to help you decode love, spot red flags, and build real connection… with a little spice on top 😏

Love that you see it that way. My wife and I redid our tiny kitchen together: painting cabinets, tiling backsplash, assembling furniture. We argued over colors, laughed at our mistakes, got covered in paint, then ordered pizza and collapsed together. Perfect mix of teamwork, mild chaos, and bonding 🧡

Yes. Though we map out the vision together, some stuff he takes over and some stuff I take over. It would always turn out nice, but aside from the occasional check-in to make sure we’re on track for the repair/renovation project.

We completely remodeled our condo, including creating a great room from two smaller rooms. We had a contractor do the physical work. We did the research and specified cabinetry, flooring, appliances, furniture and other things.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

No, but I've helped my parents on quite a few things: new ceiling tile in the dining room, new ceiling in the kitchen, completely new kitchen, new powder room next to the kitchen, refurbished bathroom, practically rebuilt the entire 3rd floor, added a screenhouse onto the garage, helped build the swimming pool, built new sidewalk all around the pool and from the back porch to the gate and the "pad" where the heater and filter sat, helped build the addition to the back fence, helped expand the area the fence covered, helped build the new steps on the front porch and the entire back porch, helped install the new cellar doors, helped build the brick fireplace in the living room, helped install the wall-to-wall carpet on the 2nd floor, did TONS of painting in and outside the house. Probably a few other things I've completely forgotten about.

I did remodeling for a living. I had a girlfriend who helped me sometimes. I didn't own a house then so she never helped with my own home.

I have a female friend staying with me for ten days next month. She might be helping remodel the bathroom. She also wants to help plant this year's garden if the weather cooperates. And yea, I think doing projects together is a way to get closer.

exitseven · Answer

yes, we had a water leak upstairs that ruined the kitchen ceiling. I replaced the drywall and did the skim coat. My wife did the textured ceiling part. If you did not know there was a big hole there you would never notice it.

I am pretty much trying to do it all myself.
