The crummy economy hasn’t entirely squelched Americans’ enthusiasm for home-improvement projects. In a poll last month among members of This Old House‘s audience panel (with responses weighted to reflect home-improvement-media consumers in general), just 3 percent said they’re “holding off on all projects until the housing market recovers.”

Twenty-three percent said they’re “doing fewer home-improvement projects overall,” and 29 percent said the majority of the fewer projects they’re doing “are for general maintenance/repair.” But an undaunted 32 percent are “still doing or going to do all the projects I planned to do.”
