1. Easy - although hate them
2. Easy
3. Easy - although not always my first choice for sorting walls out
4. Easy - Once i've made the floor perfect, otherwise can take me forever as I don't do enough of it
5. Easy
6. Hard - wouldn't consider taking on a job like that to do myself, never take on enough of that sort of work for me to become skilled at it, although I would quite like the challange in my own home when time isn't a factor
7. Hard - but enjoyable
8. Easy
9. Easy
10. Hard - But enjoyable
