Jeff Devlin, licensed contractor and host of DIY Network's Stone House Revival, shares insider tips and tricks for remodeling like a pro. Jeff began his carpentry career more than 20 years ago as an apprentice for an historic home remodeler, where he honed his skills in the trade and gained a deep appreciation for the character, craftsmanship and beauty of historic dwellings. SchoolHouse Woodworking, LLC, his custom woodworking company, delivers on their promise of excellence.

His passion, dedication and a natural ability to entertain those around him with humor, honesty and a smile, led Jeff to television. He has many years and shows under his belt for HGTV and DIY Network, including "Stone House Revival," "Smart Home," "I Hate My Bath," "Good, Better, Best…," "Spice Up My Kitchen," "Ellen's Design Challenge" and "Most Embarrassing Rooms..." among others, totaling well over 200 episodes. Jeff remains grounded, a true carpenter, passionate about character, integrity and quality. Jeff will present his seminar on Friday and Saturday at 2:00 and 6:00 p.m. and on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. and will be available after each seminar to talk to show attendees and answer questions.
