Home-maintenance class is free

PROVO — A free home-maintenance class for first-time homebuyers and other interested community members will be held Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. at Community Action Services, 815 S. Freedom Blvd.

The class is part of a five-session course offered locally by Habitat for Humanity of Utah County and Community Action Services. The topics of this month's class are interior wall repair and leaky roof repair.

Participants are encouraged to attend all five sessions but can attend only the sessions they are interested in. Those completing the entire course will receive a simple, step-by-step manual and a completion certificate.

The course will be offered in its entirety every five months. No registration is required. Participants need only to come to the class. The course is sponsored by the Ashton Family Foundation.
