Success stories

“I became a DIYer out of necessity about 5 years ago. I started with tiling a bathroom myself. Then I did everything but the plumbing on the next bathroom. This is when I discovered Jeff’s tutorials on Instagram. I could tell he not only did quality work himself, but was also a high-quality teacher. I wanted to finally tackle plumbing in this third bathroom, so I decided to subscribe to Home Repair Tutor. I wish I would have signed up 5 years ago! The videos are very well organized and packed full of professional tips. Of course, every project is different, so it was especially helpful to set up a coaching session. Jeff gave me the confidence I needed to do the plumbing. He followed up with me, providing very specific guidance, so I knew exactly what supplies to buy. He definitely saved me time and money! Home Repair Tutor is an invaluable resource that I highly recommend to DIYers and contractors alike.”

“I have always wanted to take on a larger-scale job myself, but was scared of the unknown. Home Repair Tutor gave me the confidence I needed to give it a go. I knew that Jeff was always there to have my back should I ever get into a tough situation. I found that almost every challenge I encountered was covered in various courses with expert detail and guidance. I know there are many interpretations of “right” ways to do things. But I always felt that the way it was explained on Home Repair Tutor was well thought out and truly from an expert’s point of view. Thank you again for empowering me to do this and giving me skill sets that I can use for years to come.”

“A shoutout to the Home Repair Tutor. My husband and I are building a garage apartment on our own, and I knew I wanted to tile the bathroom, the WHOLE bathroom, all the way around! I’ve done some tile backsplashes, but not a shower. I was intimidated. Thanks to Jeff’s Courses we were able to tackle what we thought was a very daunting project! It’s complete, and I’m beyond happy with our finished bathroom, and I learned plenty of new skills along the way. Keep sharing your knowledge, Jeff. We appreciate it!”

FAQs

Who should I join?

Our tutorials and Personal Coaching are perfect for homeowners, contractors, rental property owners, and Airbnb owners. If you’re trying to remodel a bathroom and feel frustrated, our Platinum Membership makes it much easier. You’ll get specific answers to your project that can be hard to find on YouTube or the internet. You’ll save a lot of time, feel more confident, and ultimately get your project done with the results you want.

Is this different than YouTube?

Many things. First, these videos specifically focus on bathroom remodeling based on industry standards and help you avoid costly mistakes and lousy results. Second, you won’t see ads – which is fantastic because ads are annoying when you’re trying to learn. Nobody wants to watch ads while trying to focus on a bathroom remodel. Third, we do our best to provide accurate lessons that follow research-backed and reliable methods by the Tile Council of North America Handbook. Following TCNA-approved techniques increase your skillset and make your tile installations rock solid. Finally, you’ll get Personal Coaching based on your specific project. This means you can send Jeff an email or Instagram direct message and get answers within 24 hours. Imagine talking to a real person about your project.

What will I learn?

You’ll learn how to plan, waterproof, and tile curbed, curbless & tub showers using subway tile and large format tiles from start to finish. You can use all the skills to build any tile shower. In addition, you’ll learn what tools and materials are the best for beginners and essential skills like shower floor templating, tile shower floor installation, planning tile layout, and more. In the end, you’ll be much more confident to tackle any curbed shower installation, not just subway tile.

Why not just search the internet?

We want you to get jaw-dropping results. All the videos in this course are done with the beginner in mind and we made them easy to follow while still following industry standards. Plus, as we all know, not all tutorials show the correct methods. Each tutorial was carefully crafted to share the ‘Why’ behind decisions. Details matter, and that’s why our tutorials are great for any skill level.

Return policy

There’s a 30-day money-back guarantee for all members. This means that if you’re not happy with the course, you can get a 100% refund between day 1 and day 30 of your membership. Simple.
