“If you’ve not much DIY experience, written lists of instructions can sometimes make a task seem more daunting”, explains Sadolin marketing manager Julie Olsson.  “Twenty years ago, you’d have got your dad or best mate to give you the benefit of their experience with a few hints and tips – but these days, they’ll probably have got someone in as well!”

“So, we’ve used these podcasts to get back to basics and just chat DIY-novices through what they need to know.  Each one starts with a shopping list and is committed to being a jargon-free zone – just pop them on your IPod and be talked through the job as you’re doing it.”
