When done properly, a job you have done yourself can provide a sense of satisfaction and pride. The job might be as "small" as a sand pit or as "big" as a house. Plans, quantities and instructions for smaller "standard" type projects are often available from hardware stores and trade associations.
If you intend to do part or all of any repair, renovation or building work in your home, you need to be aware of any regulations, requirements or potential hazards which may relate to the disturbance, handling or disposal of materials such as lead, asbestos, treated timber, volatile organic compounds and powdered materials.
