Since 2019 Get Handy have been delivering hands on training opportunities in the field of DIY and home repairs, working towards a vision of easy access to learning the appropriate skills regardless of gender or age, and with successful programs elsewhere have now brought their introductory DIY course to Brisbane.

Beginners and Home Repairs is the most basic of the training course that Get Handy deliver and is aimed at introducing students with no experience at all to the world of the most common hand and power tools, instilling not only the skills but confidence to be able to approach small projects around the home with certainty and assurance.

The one day handyman course is 9am-3pm, a hands on experience where students will soon be actively interacting with common tools, understanding their uses, learning about different types of timber and appropriate fixings, resulting in the ability to undertake tasks such as hanging shelves, that previously may have been completed by a local tradie, complete with their charges and costs.

Everyone is welcome at Get Handy courses and if you are looking for DIY workshops for women that provide learning in safe and small groups, with an engaging female tutor with considerable experience in the field, then the Beginners and Home Repairs course is going to be ideal for you.
