We recently had Danielle out to do a Home Maintenance "Check-Up" -- the peace of mind we got was worth more than the cost of the inspection. She uncovered a few problems we could fix easily now that would have been expensive repairs if they hadn't been caught early (insect and drainage pipe issue). She also helped us sort out the "must do" projects vs the "can wait awhile" projects, with helpful suggestions for things we could do ourselves. My partner and I both felt so much more confident and good about our home afterward. Thank you , Danielle!

I learned so much from the “Basic Plumbing” and the “Basic Carpentry” classes I attended!! The best part of each class, for me, was the hands-on experience of actually taking apart faucets and putting them back together again and getting the tactile experience of working with tools and wood.

Your classes were fun and informative, and, they gave me the needed confidence to tackle my own home projects--like fixing the upstairs bathroom faucet that, formerly, was making a weird screaming sound, and building a handy-dandy wooden ramp for my older dog to use to get into the car.

Thank you for your expertise, your classes, AND my newly-found confidence!!

Jan. 19-20, 2008 I attended the JOAT basic electrical workshop, and I couldn't be happier with the results. There was a ton of hands on experience, loads of personal attention and great attention paid to safety and code. I highly recommend it to anyone...and have already to several of my friends. The instructor, Cheri, is a licensed electrical contractor, was very patient with us novices, and did a thorough job of teaching us how to do several common, practical wiring projects that would come up in any household. I came right home and installed electrical outlets in my house!
