You finally have a place of your own. Now what happens when something breaks?

This class is for anyone who’s ever stood in a hardware store feeling clueless — or worse, bought a 172-piece tool set that still didn’t have what they actually needed.

In this hands-on mini class, you’ll get familiar with the essential tools every homeowner should own — no fluff, no gimmicks. We’ll show you what works, when to use it, and how to avoid wasting money on junk you don’t need.

You’ll handle and learn about:

• Cordless drill and driver (and when not to use it)

• Screwdrivers (flat, Phillips, hex — and when to use each)

• Stud finder, level, and tape measure (so you can finally hang pictures straight)

• Pliers, adjustable wrench, and utility knife (the unsung heroes of quick fixes)

• Wire strippers and outlet tester (for when you’re ready to change a switch or outlet down the road)

We won’t be replacing, fixing or wiring anything in this class, but we’ll show you what tools you’ll need when you are — and how to walk into your local big box home improvement story with confidence and a no-nonsense shopping list.

• No experience needed

• Tools provided for in-class use

• Take home our “No-Fluff Starter Toolkit” checklist

Pairs great with: “Fix That Drip,” “Mount a TV Without Wrecking the Wall,” or “Change Your Door Locks”

Water & Electric Emergencies for First-Time Homeowners and Renters

You hear it before you see it—drip… drip… drip.

Water’s pooling under the fridge, or maybe the toilet’s overflowing thanks to a toddler’s plastic log. The power just went out, and you’re not sure if it’s the whole house or just the kitchen.

Panic sets in. What do you do first?

This class is your calm in the chaos.

In this hands-on micro class, you’ll learn how to shut off water and electricity in an emergency—fast—and how to safely turn it back on once the crisis is under control.

We’ll show you:

• How to locate and operate key shut-off valves behind toilets, under sinks, and near appliances

• What a GFCI outlet is, where to find it, and how to reset it

• When and how to check the breaker panel for a tripped circuit

• How to safely slide out appliances (like dishwashers and washers) to access hidden shut-offs

• What tools (if any) you may need—usually just a flashlight and your hands (we’ll provide them)

This class is a 60/40 mix of hands-on practice and demonstration, designed for anyone who’s never dealt with water or power issues on their own.

No experience? No tools? No problem.

You’ll leave knowing how to stop a small disaster before it becomes a big one—and how to walk your home with confidence, not confusion.

Tools provided for in-class use.

Includes our “Emergency Shut-Off Checklist” to take home.
