The How-To Community features a number of tenured Home Depot store associates from around the country who are ready to help consumers tackle their home repair projects. They are trained and equipped with the latest multi-media technologies so they can bring their knowledge to life in ways that savvy consumers now expect.

“Our How-To Community is a gathering place for homeowners, professional contractors, product manufacturers and weekend DIYers to swap tips and share project knowledge,” said Brad Shaw, vice president of communications, The Home Depot. “In addition to the peer-to-peer support you'd expect in this type of community, we've selected and trained some of our most tenured store associates to serve as product experts on the site a couple of days each week. The other days, they are back in the store answering questions there. Our customers will find the same level of knowledge and support on this site that they receive in our stores.”

Members of the Home Depot How-To Community earn rank and status among their peers by participating in the site on a regular basis and offering their expertise to other users. Visitors to the online community will find discussions organized in categories including Paint, Tools and Hardware, Garden and Yard and Do-it-Yourself and Repair.
