READING LANES
Three ways into the handbook
Pick the lane that matches where you are. New to a subject, working on a job this weekend, or weighing up options you already understand. Each lane reads differently, and that’s on purpose.
START HERE
Beginner guides, read in order
For first-timers who don’t know the vocabulary yet. These guides assume no prior knowledge, cover the basics people tend to skip, and finish with a sensible next step.
HANDS-ON
How-tos with numbered steps
Concrete walkthroughs with checklists, updated regularly. State and season differences are flagged up front. If a job needs a licensed tradesperson or professional advice, we’ll say so rather than pretend otherwise.
IN DEPTH
Longer reads on the trade-offs
For confident readers choosing between options. We show the reasoning in full, and when the honest answer is ‘it depends on your situation’, we say that and explain what it depends on.

HOW WE CHECK
Why the date on a page means something
01 Checked before publishing. Nothing goes live until it’s been checked. We’d rather publish one useful guide than several rushed ones.
02 Reviewed in quarterly batches. Explainers are reviewed in batches each quarter. If something changed, the update is noted in the opening lines, and the URL stays the same so your bookmarks keep working.
03 Corrections invited. Spotted a mistake or a rule that’s changed in your state? Tell us. A real person reads every message, and corrections help us keep the handbook accurate.
