No not for me, probably wouldn't help, but for the house that is almost as old as I. We bought it around 10 years ago and really haven't done much to it. Now is time to get some work done and the first of many project planned. I started with putting handrail on steps and around the porch. I copied the rails that I saw at Home Depot but made them myself as they didn't have the sizes I needed. Before I did that I had to jack up that corner of the house and replace a sill and some floor joist that had begun to rot making the porch a little weak. Now that that's done I will do a complete repaint of the house. The color will be grey like the sample behind the mailbox on the wall. The trim will be white like the rails. The porch floor and the steps will be coated with that new stuff they make for decks to eliminate splinters and will probably be a wood color of brown. After that I need to do some landscaping to bring out the best of the house. That should keep me busy almost all summer so probably not too many fishing trip until it's finished.
