I watched 'Love it or List it' last night and Kirsty said everyone should spend about £1500 to £2000 pa on upkeep of their home. She didn't say if that includes labour costs. We've spent about £800 so far this year on redecorating a room and replacing a garden fence - both DIY jobs. No idea how much more labour would have cost us.
What does everyone else think about that estimate, and do you budget for it or take it as it comes?
