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 Jeffโ€™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 โ€œrightโ€ 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 expertโ€™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! Iโ€™ve done some tile backsplashes, but not a shower. I was intimidated. Thanks to Jeffโ€™s Courses we were able to tackle what we thought was a very daunting project! Itโ€™s complete, and Iโ€™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!”
