About

Houseworthy Guide is a home improvement magazine for people who want their home to work better, look better and cost less to run.

We cover the whole house: room renovations, roofing and siding, heating and plumbing, paint and lighting, and the seasonal maintenance that keeps small problems from turning into big bills. Every project guide answers the three questions homeowners actually have: what does this job involve, what will it cost, and can I do it myself?

What you’ll find here

  • Project guides with a difficulty rating, time estimate, tools list and step-by-step instructions.
  • Cost guides that break down low, average and high prices and what drives them.
  • Fix-it explainers for the noises, leaks and warning signs every home throws at you.
  • Design ideas for kitchens, bathrooms, living spaces and small rooms.
  • Honest product picks for tools, appliances and smart home gear.

How we work

Our writers include renovators, tradespeople and long-time DIYers. We update cost guides regularly, flag when a job needs a licensed professional, and clearly label any article published in partnership with a brand. Read our editorial policy for the details.
