My Blog Intro

Posted by Jean-Simon Plouffe on Jun 11 2010 under   

 Hi everyone,

I’m happy to join the BetterHomePortal.com team as resident handyman and blogger. I’ve been interested and involved in home improvement and renovation for over 10 years. It’s been more of a passion and pastime than anything else, so I’m not a professional my any means. I’ve worked on renovation jobs with a contractor in the past but the bulk of my experience has come from my own home projects. I’ve learned to research, plan and ask the necessary questions before starting or sub-contracting any project and I think that those are key in getting things done right.

In the last few years I’ve been inspired by Mike Holmes of HGTV’s ”Holmes on Homes” and “Holmes Inspection” (www.makeitright.ca) and I truly believe that if you do something in your home or for someone else for that matter, you should or have someone “do it right the first time”. That can of course be a challenge with all the do it yourself (DIY) or contractor horror stories. The purpose of this Blog is to share my passion and experiences as a home owner and handyman, hopefully sharing best practices that will help you on your home improvement projects! Again I’m not a professional and I don’t have all the answers but all I do is based on research and done with the utmost attention to detail. I welcome and encourage your feedback so please tell me what you think and share your ideas.

 

My 1st blog is coming soon,

 

Stay tuned!  :)  jeansimon
