Do It Herself! Are you sick and tired of meeting with home improvement contractors about your home projects and they never show up, don't provide estimates, start projects and then disappear halfway through the project? Meet other ladies in the PG area who want to discuss, share ideas or collaborate on home and garden projects. Let's help each other get some basic home improvement projects done and learn some new skills.
Disclaimer - The "Do It Herself" (DIH) Meetup Group consists of unlicensed and, at times, unskilled members. DIH members make no guarantees and/or warranties on any home improvement projects. We are volunteers and will not be held liable for damage due to the workmanship, damage to any home, or accidents by members or homeowners while working on projects. Accepting assistance from the DIH meetup is done at one's own risk.
RULES ABOUT "Yes" RSVPs - Only RSVP "Yes" if you intend to attend an activity/event. If you RSVP "Yes" and something comes up, please change your RSVP to "No" at least 1 hour prior to the activity/event. Because of the effort to put activities in place, those who RSVP "Yes" on 3 occasions but do not show will be removed from the group.

A very important part of any successful home improvement project is a well-developed project plan. Miki has asked for assistance in planning her backyard landscaping project in detail so that she/we can do some of the work in the future and determine what may need to be contracted out. She also plans to tile her basement floor, so we will help her plan out that the project also and to determine what is DIY and what needs to be contracted out.
