MEET MATT BLASHAW FROM DIY'S YARD CRASHERS
|
Licensed contractor Matt Blashaw is everything you want in a versatile handyman and then some.
His home improvement company once used the slogan “One Call Fixes It All” and Matt made a point of always delivering on that promise. So how does a
guy this young get to be this good?
Easy – he grew up in a lumberyard! A native of Orange County, Calif., Matt spent his teen years working at his father’s lumberyard before graduating from Chapman University. He then moved on to a variety of jobs in the construction and entertainment industries. A stint with the technical services group at Disney taught him about show effects and electrical installation.
Today, when he’s not sharing his expertise with DIY Network viewers, Matt works as a Realtor and develops and builds homes in Orange County. Matt takes a fearless approach to home remodeling and says he’s never afraid to make mistakes. After all, that’s often when he learns the most. If you’re thinking about taking on a do-it-yourself project, take his advice and just go for it.
Matt hosts DIY Network’s Yard
Crashers, Money Hunters, Deconstruction and Project Xtreme.
