We are hoping to move to a new house in the next few months and we are not planning to move again unless something major comes up. The house doesn't need too much doing to it but does need redecoration throughout. I want to do the best I can to make it look amazing and we have a reasonable budget to get most things done as soon as we move in.
One of my huge annoyances about previous houses we have lived in is badly painted gloss woodwork where the paint has aged to a horrible off white and some of the doors don't close properly because of all the layers of paint!
We've never had the money or time to sort it out before but this time I really want to have beautifully painted white woodwork. We will need to replace all the flooring throughout as well including having a wooden floor downstairs.
My question is, how easy is it to remove all the woodwork in the house and start again?! Including removing skirting boards, door frames, architraves, room doors and cupboard doors. Will it be really expensive? Does anyone have experience of doing it themselves??
