Honey do list for home repairs, room by room with a done log

This honey do list gathers all the small repairs and fix-it jobs around your house, sorted by room, with a priority and the person who will do each one. It has 25 undated pages, including a walk-through of the whole house, fix-it lists for 6 areas, a master list, a weekend plan, pages for tools, supplies and parts to buy, quotes for larger jobs, a done log with date and cost, seasonal lists of small jobs and project notes.

It comes as a US Letter PDF and an A4 PDF. Download it right away and print at home. Nothing is mailed.

How the honey do list gets jobs finished

Do a single lap of the house with the 16 room walk-through, then move each job onto its room list with an A, B or C priority and a who column for me, us, a helper or a pro. The weekend plan keeps things realistic: choose two to four jobs, do one trip to the store before Saturday, and split the work into morning and afternoon.

The parts list has room for sizes, model numbers and colors, while the page of home sizes and specs keeps filter sizes, bulb types and paint codes handy for the hardware store. Each finished job goes into the done log with the date, the time it took and the cost, so over time the pages turn into a simple repair history for your home.

Who this home repair list is for

• Couples and families who would rather share one list of house jobs than a trail of sticky notes
• New homeowners and renters still finding out what their home needs and when
• Weekend DIYers who like to plan the job, the tools and the parts before they begin
• Busy homes that want to see what is finished, what it cost and what is next

Design and printing

• Elegant, minimalist look: white pages and soft blush pink touches that use very little ink
• Generous margins all around, so a home printer will not clip anything
• Two portrait sizes: US Letter (8.5 x 11 in) and A4 (210 x 297 mm)
• Undated, so it suits any year
• Every fix-it list has A, B and C priority circles and a column for who does it
• Use it in a binder or on a clipboard, or have a print shop spiral bind it
