Sian Davies reviewed: Confidence with tools for DIY beginners

"Finally! An introduction to DIY in the most fabulous of workshops with a great instructor. Matt was so welcoming, had the most fantastic day. I only wish I’d done this type of course years ago as would have saved ££££’s in handyman costs for the most simple of tasks. Matt was also patient and understood the nerves of sawing something for the first time! Since that day I’ve fixed my shed using wood filler and put up some shelves. Changed door handles, got my Dyson fixed onto the wall. I got some decorators chalk and sorted out my skirting boards and sealant in my bathroom around the bath and sink. I’ve even been practising drilling holes into old bricks and pieces of wood. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about a day with Matt to get it booked. After some of the disasters I’ve seen some male friends attempt with DIY I think the blokes should get themselves booked in too! Thank you Matt for giving me the confidence boost that I can do house jobs myself. And do them well. "

"Hi Sian Thank you so much for your review, I think I might print it and stick it up on the wall in the workshop to remind me I'm on the right path. I'm thinking seriously about running a more advance course next spring, if I do I'll certainly let you know. Thanks again for your kind words and for being such a big part of what was a great day for all of us. Matt"

"Hi Clare Thank you for the review. I'm glad you had such a good time on the course and especially so that it had such a positive effect. I'm now thinking seriously about a follow up course and will let you know when it comes on line. In the meantime if you're thinking about taking your DIY forwards there are plenty of other options in the area, so go for it and embrace the world of DIY. Cheers/ Matt"

"Had a lovely day in such a beautiful setting. Matt is a great teacher, very knowledgeable and patient! He also kindly tailored some tasks to suit our specific problems. I am a complete beginner but came away feeling confident I could carry out basic tasks. From identifying tools to having a go practically it was a great learning experience in such a lovely place with lovely people."
