Why “Grandpa”?
“Grandpa” represents hard-earned, cross-trade wisdom. We bring that spirit into modern learning — tools, materials, safety, all made simple.
Do it Yourself, Safely!
Understand and solve common household issues with confidence. Know what to do first, what to check next, and when to call a specialist — saving you time, money, and frustration.
Gain practical, safety-first skills. Test outlets, shut off water calmly, choose the right anchors, and verify that your fixes are truly safe. Independence is great — safe independence is even better.
You’ll learn to:
• Avoid unnecessary service calls
• Speak the same language as contractors
• Assess quotes and workmanship
• Spend wisely on tools that last

It’s a true digital detox.
Forums, workshops, and community challenges.
Learn side by side, share what you’ve built, and see how others tackled the same problems. Get feedback, find support, get inspired, and keep improving.
