The following description comes from the event organizer.

Leaky faucets, running toilets, dripping drains... these things happen all the time and can waste water, waste money, and cause damage. Learn how to identify and fix common plumbing problems without having to hire a plumber. 

Whether you're a homeowner, renter, or remodeler, come learn some great DIY ins-and-outs that will add skills to your tool belt, save water, and save you money! 

Water-saving kits for each student are generously provided by the Portland Water Bureau. 

This is a skills-based class where you will learn how to use tools and make repairs, but you will not build a project to take home.

Though no water will be flowing, in this hands-on class you will learn:
Understanding your water meter
Identifying and fixing common leaks
How to use several water conservation devices
Bathroom faucets and supply lines
Simple ways to clear drain clogs
How to change a showerhead
Toilet basics (for more in-depth info on toilets, check out our Toilet Repair and Replacement class)
How to take advantage of rebates and incentives from Portland Water Bureau

Skill level: This class is ideal for beginners ages 18 and over as well as 16 and 17 year-olds with parent or guardian permission.
Class Schedule: Class will run for 2.5 hours and no breaks are planned.
