About the Author, Melissa Young

To begin, it’s important to clarify that I am not a certified professional. I am a homeowner sharing an approach for you to tackle tasks independently.

When my husband and I purchased our first home 18 years ago, we invested our entire savings into the acquisition, leaving us with no funds for furnishing or improvements (we literally had empty rooms for years!). Despite realizing that our first home was a “flipped” property, we underestimated its condition until issues arose after our move-in. Faced with the challenge of fixing and rectifying numerous aspects, we swiftly had to learn how to address these issues ourselves, given our financial constraints. This marked the inception of my passion for home renovation and maintenance.

Growing up in a family of carpenters and handymen provided me with invaluable skills, and I’m excited to share the insights gained over the years. Here, I aim to impart knowledge and instill confidence in you, empowering you to embark on your own DIY journey.
