I want a sort of wiki with examples for different home maintenance jobs. It must have good, reputable information and high-quality videos. I would pay a monthly sub for this kind of service.
I'd be interested to hear what projects you couldn't find helpful information for.
I want to find out how to install a deadbolt on my door which only has a keyed knob. I'd like to install one on two of the three exterior doors. The doors are steel, and I with my zero-knowledge of home improvement, don't know how, or if I even could, drill holes through them. Because I needed to change the locks right away, I just bought some new doorknobs and changed them all out.
Of course, I didn't realize I got locks that have different keys for each of the three exterior doors. Ugh. They will only have to be temporary.
I _really_ don't want to replace the door from messing up a drilling job. I've spent 20 minutes now researching and only now I'm kind of confident that have the resources to figure out exactly what I need to do.
The best one-stop-shop site for learning I've found is doityourself.com. It has basically all the features I'm looking for - howtos, forums, user-submitted projects, but the site is bloated(just open up dev tools and watch the ocean of requests on pageload). The site is also not responsive.
I already feel overwhelmed at how much I'm going to have to learn to keep my house in good shape for my family. The lack of a good web resource is frustrating. I'm considering attacking this problem as well. Feel free to email me.
