The Houses 101 workshop is designed to teach new homeowners, prospective homeowners, and veteran homeowners alike about the many layers and systems that make up a house along with some basic home maintenance recommendations. Workshop participants will walk around our Casa Colina house tracking the different components of the house, learning about their functions, key safety tips, and how to tell if anything is awry. Class topics will include, but not limited to:
- Plumbing systems
- HVAC systems
- Electrical systems
- Natural gas
- Roof and gutter systems
- Interior finish wall assemblies and framing
- Foundations
- Windows and Doors
Lead Poisoning Hazard Disclaimer: All home renovation 
work can create a significant lead hazard if completed in a pre-1978 home. DIYD will provide Lead Poisoning Prevention resources to any workshop attendee living in a pre-1978 home. DIYD also hosts  a lead safety class twice a year - we highly recommend that you sign up for the lead safety class before you complete these projects in your home if your home was built before 1978 and you have young children living in your home. 
About the teacher: 
Rhett Harkins (he/him) has been a Price Hill resident for 15 years.  He and his wife purchased their current home, built in 1886, in 2010 for $5,600 and thus were thrust into the expansive world of home renovations.  In 2013 he and his long-time friend and business partner began Red Door Management in hopes to improve historic homes in the neighborhood and provide spaces for Cincinnati residents to be proud of.  As the mission became a reality, "RDM Services" was born as a division of Red Door to help homeowners see the full potential of their living spaces and continues to operate today.  Rhett believes that our living spaces can be a reflection of both the individuals that inhabit them, and the community of which they are a part.
