Huge shout-out and heartfelt thanks to Ted Day for teaching an amazing Home Maintenance 101 Plumbing Basics class! We learned about fixing toilet issues, tackling pesky household leaks, and unclogging those clogged drains!

Your expertise, patience, and knack for simplifying basic plumbing repairs made it such a valuable class for everyone who attended. Now we're feeling confident enough to take on those frustrating leaks and clogs on our own!

Thanks for empowering us with an informative class!

What a class! Thank you Mark from Rebuilding Together South Sound who gave us invaluable lessons on how to prepare our homes for the upcoming Spring and Summer!
Inside our home, we learned about the importance of cleaning our refrigerator coils, installing new batteries in our smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, inspecting caulking in the kitchen and the bathrooms and cleaning our kitchen exhaust hoods. And Wow! I had no idea about the different types of caulk!
With the weather warming up, we are ready to head outside to inspect our outdoor play equipment, check our caulking, repair our damaged screens and inspect our siding.
Mark’s expertise gave us the confidence to tackle our seasonal chores so we can focus on having some fun!

Thanks to Donesha for instructing the Electrical Basics workshop! Participants really enjoyed the hands-on activity of stripping wire and visually learning about how to install socket and light switches. Just wish I remembered to take pictures....
