I don't want to come across as ungrateful to him as he does always get on with the things I want doing round the house but her never does things properly.
We need the kitchen repainting as when we moved in a lot of it had plaster in areas, looks like something like a splashback had been removed above oven leaving a lot of uneven wall texture.
I ordered a wall sander and he went over the walls last week with it for maybe 30 mins.
I thought he was just doing a test run of it/light sand to start.
I've just come in to him painting.
He's not moved any of the small appliances out of the room.
The top of the cupboard units are filthy with dust/kitchen greasyness and absolutely needed cleaning before painting started so when he cuts in next to them the dust doesn't mix in.
The walls definitely need more sanding, especially above the oven as its very potmarked, it probably needs sanding, filling then resanding.
He's not covered any of the large appliances to protect from paint drips from ceiling.
I had no idea he was going to start painting. I suggested we get 'some stuff' done in there once I got back from nipping out but I meant prep work to get ready for paint tomorrow.
I know he will see his arse if I go in to point this out, not because he's a meanie but because he will think Im just being critical
He really is enthusiastic and has the ability to do a lot of DIY jobs but he always does this, just goes straight in without doing the small things which make a job gonfrom DIy to a little more professional looking.
And we cannot afford pay anyone to do it before anyone suggests that and again he is physically capable of doing everything properly, he just doesn't think to. He is autistic, maybe thats part of it. Who knows.
