MyFixitUpLife talk show: Make a difference in your community

Finalists for Tradesperson of the Year

MyFixitUpLife talks to the pros about how to make a difference at home and in your community.

On this episode of MyFixitUpLife we’re talking about volunteering and how skilled tradespeople make a difference.

DIY Network’s ‘Cool Tools’ host Grundy talks volunteer projects, Rebuilding Together, his newest tool innovation ideas, and the biggest tool he’s ever used when we bolt him down with the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) inside the Remodeling Show in Chicago.

We talk Tradesperson of the Year with Rebuilding Together CEO Charley Shimanski. And we go inside the remodeling industry to talk trends in remodeling when we talk with Lowe’s, National Association of Home Builders’ Bill Shaw and National Association of the Remodeling Industry’s Chris Wright.

Home improvement experts Mike Sloggatt and Peter Heard talk everything from home improvement tips, how to provide excellent customer service, and making a difference.

When you make a difference, it has a funny way of paying back—with interest. And the payback for lots of volunteers is picked up new skills while doing projects and helping people. Plus, the biggest payback is a better world.

It’s time to make something great.
