Andrew Bennett

Andrew Bennett approaches home repair the way a patient contractor might, breaking down plumbing leaks, drywall patches and electrical fixes into steps that anyone can follow without special training. He favors long form guides that anticipate the moment a beginner gets stuck, adding warnings and alternate methods when tools or materials vary. His pieces often include a short troubleshooting list at the end so readers can diagnose what went wrong before calling in outside help. When he is not writing, he is usually testing a repair on an old scrap of lumber first.
