[catta12]

Just curious, what is your LEAST favorite thing to do (thinking general handyman or shop type jobs)?

Dry wall
Electrical
Sanding
Painting
Plumbing
Cleaning in General
Other horrific task

Anything related to yard work. If I have to do it, WATCH OUT!!!! If the riding mower can get over it, it's fair game!!!

[Hellrazor]

Drywall by far...

[balzac.thegreat]

Cleaning up after yourself!

[JR]

Drywall's the nastiest.

Plumbing's the craziest. Who knows what will happen after the first turn of the wrench?

One thing that I am bad at is tidying up the shop. As I do a project I get tools out and then just put them on my big bench. Pretty soon I cant see the surface. It takes me far tool long to end up putting everything away in its proper place....

Plumbing (the repairs variety) got my vote. Can't do it without making a hellacious mess, and at least two extra trips to Lowe's Depot.

Painting would run a close second, though. I don't mind rolling out the big areas but trim, and cutting in corners ... grrrr. Not for me.

[Uncle Cracker]

I had to vote "other" because my two least favorite tasks are not up there...

1) Roofing... It's a really bad place to die...

2) Septic cleaning/repair... 'Nuff said...

Plumbing hands down.

The supply side doesn't bother me too much, you get to play with fire and it's kind of like legos or tinker-toys. It's the return side that's no fun! I know what's in those pipes and frankly it's not stuff I want to spend any quality time with...

Drywall and painting can be messy but at least it's a clean mess

I hate washing pots and pans. I hate putting away laundry. I wish they would invent a dryer that automatically does it for you. Oh and more recently changing poopy diapers specially the stinky ones.

[pelligrini]

Cleaning it all up and putting the tools away comes in first.

Plumbing is second, but it's not really the actual plumbing part. It the multiple, multiple trips to the hardware store returning the almost right part, for the about right part, that replaced the 'this looks like it' part.

Another anti drywall man here. I ran power from my house panel to the garage for a sub panel and in the process cut a 6" wide access and an inside run of about 20'. It only took about an hour to get a patch in and then two messy weekends doing what a good drywall person could have done in 20 minutes.

Drywall. Never can get the mud smooth enough not to have sand, sand, and more sand.
I hired out the drywall on my "DIY" bathroom remodel.

[Tom Slick]

I HATE drywall. small patches are ok, hanging sheets is ok. taping and mudding I hire out, it is the only task that I refused to do while remodeling my house.

House painting is ok but near drywall. I do enjoy the results though. I like project painting/finishing

I kinda like plumbing but I hate how many trips to the store it usually takes.

I really enjoy electrical.
