Side note: Do you also think this would have an effect on an individual level? Services such as in-house painting, furniture moving, plumbing work, food delivery etc from outside sources, the fear of contracting a virus could lead more people to take a more Do It Yourself approach and what impact would this have on home delivered services?

DIY is already quite popular for the reason that in the era of super accessibility and information noise, people are increasingly choosing some creative activities as a hobby. It's unlikely that COVID will have much of an impact on this. Streams are also unlikely to rise because many who are looking for DIY content want to then repeat what they saw and the stream format is a lot of inconvenience for this (Yes, I know that then there are records but many who delete them).
