Jubilee Homes is thrilled to introduce its Home Maintenance Workshop Series, designed to empower homeowners with vital skills for effective home maintenance.
Workshop Overview
The Home Maintenance Workshop Series includes four interactive sessions, each focused on a different aspect of home maintenance. Whether you're just starting out or looking to sharpen your skills, these workshops will provide clear, step-by-step instructions to help you feel more confident about managing various home projects.
Workshop Schedule
October 15: Tools 101: Safety, Skills & Measuring Right
October 22: Building + Repairing Walls
October 29: DIY Upgrades: Outlets, Fixtures & Quick Fixes
November 5: Finishing Touches: Panels, Wallpaper, Tile & More
Each workshop will be held from 6–8 PM at 416 West Onondaga Street. Participants can opt to attend individual classes for $15 each or sign up for the entire series for a discounted total of $50.
Tools 101: Safety, Skills & Measuring Right
The first workshop, "Tools 101," is essential for anyone starting their DIY journey. Participants will learn about different tools and how to use them safely. You will discover why correct measurements are crucial. According to a survey, nearly 50% of DIY enthusiasts reported that incorrect measurements led to project delays and increased costs.
This session covers everything from screwdrivers to power drills, making sure you feel comfortable while working on your next project. You will practice using basic hand tools like hammers and levels, which will set a solid foundation for your future tasks.
Building + Repairing Walls
The second workshop dives deep into wall construction and repair. Whether you are patching a hole or building a new wall, this session gives you the essential skills needed to do it right.
Participants will learn about different wall materials such as drywall and plywood, how to evaluate damage, and step-by-step processes for repairs. Some estimates suggest that DIY repairs can save homeowners over 60% compared to hiring professionals. This knowledge is invaluable for maintaining your home’s structural integrity.
DIY Upgrades: Outlets, Fixtures & Quick Fixes
The third workshop focuses on practical upgrades that enhance your home both functionally and aesthetically. You will learn to replace light fixtures, install new electrical outlets, and make other quick fixes requiring minimal tools and effort.
These simple upgrades can go a long way, increasing the overall value of your home. For instance, updating light fixtures alone can potentially increase your home’s market value by about 3-5%. With these skills, you can avoid paying professionals for straightforward tasks.
Finishing Touches: Panels, Wallpaper, Tile & More
The final workshop will center on the finishing details that can dramatically change a room’s appearance. Participants will learn to install wall panels, apply wallpaper, and lay tile. These skills are ideal for those seeking to add personal flair or wrap up a renovation project.
Finishing touches are often the most rewarding parts of any DIY project as they truly bring your ideas to life. This workshop includes techniques to ensure that your finishes look polished and professional.
