I recently bought a home and have not done much work to protect, preserve, or enhance my home.
A couple of issues that I have run into:
1.changing light bulbs- Halgon vs CFL vs LED do you think changing majority of the heavy used light bulbs to LED will save money on up front costs? LED lights are very expensive but they say in the long term you will save money. Difference in lumens?
2.What do you guys use to clean and protect hardwood floors?
3. Need to replace a shutter that was fallen off. I received a couple of quotes to replace one shutter near the roof. 1st quote was around 450 second quote 2 is for 150. I feel like I can replace it myself, i just need to research how to install the shutter and keep it put.
What other improvements do you guys recommend that can be done.
