Home maintenance courses - London North or Central

Hi,

Does anyone know of "Home Maintenance" courses in central or North London? I am thinking along the lines of:

How to change a water tap washer Paper a wall with anaglypta Wall and floor tiling Putting up gutters

I know how to do very trivial "maintenance tasks" such as change a plug fuse or unblock a sink.

Any pointers most gratefully received.

Read uk.d-i-y.=20 We get round to most things eventually and its free when you have a computer and email access. Unblocking sinks is a FAQ here.

Presumably the reason he wants a course is that it gives some real practice.

If you read the manual and use the recommended tools, it's surprisingly hard to screw most things up. For the last year I've been too far from home to call Dad, but have managed with no previous experience to paint, lay tile and laminate flooring, and even change faucets and shower heads without disaster. Honestly, if it were THAT hard, would we entrust it to the builder's bum brigade? :-) And no course is going to cover everything. Just grab your toolbox and wade in! At worst, you'll pay someone to do something you would have paid them to do anyway.
