About us

At DIY Brighton, we provide high-quality training to individuals who have little or no knowledge or experience.

We understand that tackling a home improvement project can be daunting for those who are new to DIY.  Providing accessible, hands-on training that helps our customers develop the skills and confidence they need to complete those projects. Our workshops are designed to be engaging and interactive, and our instructors take the time to explain each step of the process in simple, easy-to-understand terms and asking questions is a big part of that process.

From basic and beginners' skills to advanced sessions, we walk you through your DIY journey from beginning to end

How it Started

“I believe the challenges I have overcome with my hands have helped the challenges I have faced in my head.”

Hi I’m Jamie, the founder of Do It Yourself Brighton

Since 2012 I have been working as a builder, roofer, handyman, cabinet maker and furniture maker. I have made, fitted, and fixed a large number of projects from repairing boats in greece to building kitchens and making repairs to my home. 

With some formal and some informal education on all of the elements of my skillset, I am often asked how I know so much, and my answer is always the same, “because I have a go and learn from my mistakes”

I decided to start teaching DIY and practical skills in 2021 and have spent the time since then designing my courses. For me being practical and skilful are so much more than just getting things done. They are about feeling empowered and building self-esteem and self-respect.

I want basic skills to be something that everyone can learn, use, and benefit from. So now I want to pass on some of the skills and confidence I have learned to others.
