Welcome to the Home Improvements Depot, the ongoing tales of an amateur handyman, demonstrating do-it-yourself home projects, showing what to do (and what not to do) and even exploring links and other great home repair sites!

I’ll highlight great home improvement websites, go step-by-step with you through projects I’m working on in my own home, give insight into what works and what does not work and even mix in some humor.

I am not, in any way, a home repair professional. I’m just a guy who owns a fifty year old house that needs some serious updating and work. I enjoy the challenge of teaching myself new repair skills, trying to figure out home repair problems and playing with power tools.

By the same token, all the advice and steps given in here are for information purposes only. You should really consult with a professional (or better yet, hire a professional) before tackling any home improvement project you’re unsure of. I can’t take any responsibility for anything said or shown on these pages. These are just my experiences and may or may not be yours.

Again… Welcome!
