home projects

Weekend fix-up tasks

Home projects are tasks undertaken to improve, repair, or maintain one's living space—painting rooms, building shelves, fixing leaky faucets, landscaping the yard.

The term implies do-it-yourself work rather than hiring professionals: I spent the weekend on home projects.

Home projects range from quick fixes to ambitious renovations that stretch across months.
