Here's the whole journey through a repair with Chamfer, from the moment something drips to the moment you put your tools away.
Point your camera at the drippy valve or the mystery switch and Chamfer identifies it. Prefer typing? "My toilet won't stop running" works just as well. You can also browse the guide library by room or category.
That drip at the stem usually means a worn packing washer.
Before you commit, every guide shows the difficulty, the time it really takes, and the tools and parts you'll need — so there are no surprise hardware-store runs at step 5. If the job's beyond DIY, it says so here, up front.
Each step is short, specific, and written for someone doing it for the first time. Finish one, tap done, get the next. Life happens — put the phone down and your spot is saved for later.
Unclip the chain from the flush lever arm, then slide the flapper's ears off the pegs on the overflow tube.
Water should already be off at the supply valve. If the tank refills on its own, stop and re-check step 2.
"Which way do I turn this?" "Mine looks different." The AI helper sees which guide and step you're on, so answers fit your actual situation — not a generic forum thread from 2014.
Anything involving gas, mains electricity, or structure gets an intercept: Chamfer stops, explains the risk in plain English, and makes you confirm before continuing. And when a job genuinely calls for a licensed pro, it says exactly that.
Switch off the breaker for this room, then test the fixture wires with a non-contact voltage tester. No tester? Don't guess — get one, or get a pro.
Every finished repair shows what a service call would have cost. Chamfer keeps a record of what you've fixed and quietly reminds you about the seasonal upkeep that prevents the expensive stuff.
vs. a typical plumber visit in your area.
Test smoke detectors (monthly) · Flush the water heater (before winter). We'll nudge you when it's time.
That split is deliberate — you get the speed of AI without trusting your house to generated instructions.
The repair guides are the rescue. These are the habits that mean you need rescuing less often.
A quick setup quiz tells Chamfer what you've got — furnace, gutters, water heater — and builds a seasonal reminder schedule around it. Subscribe once and it lives in your phone's calendar.
One number that tells you how your home is doing, weighted so safety counts double. Check things off and watch it climb — plus a logbook of everything you've done.
Every guide you save, every repair you finish, and a running total of what you've saved doing it yourself. Put the phone down mid-job and pick up where you left off.
Join the waitlist and be first in line when Chamfer opens up.
