Hear from our Happy and Proud DIYers!

"I find it difficult to know how to approach certain DIY because of my lack of knowledge or experience… I have had experiences where I messed up the DIY because I didn’t know how to do it properly. Having tradies show me how to DIY remotely would make me feel good!"

“It’s like telehealth for tradies!”

“The Show Me Exchange platform is an awesome idea! If the task isn't complex, I would much prefer someone to remotely show me how to fix it…”

“I really like the idea of people being able to pick up small jobs. I would use this app when I needed to have someone show me because I can't have access to friends who can do that."
