5.0 out of 5 stars Tiler for many Years--- BUILDING a SHOWER PAN, December 4, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I have tiled for about 30 years... BUT I have never built a shower pan from ground up. Excellent instructions and photographs... the book is worth it for this alone. I've enjoyed the entire book.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL, March 18, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Decorating with Ceramic Tile: Innovative Techniques & Patterns for Floors, Walls, Backsplashes & Accents (Black & Decker Complete Guide) (Paperback)
We were about to remodel our home when I bought this book from Amazon. This has the most awesome pictures and instructions. It is very beautifully done and it was quite helpful. There is one project in here that I love so much that my hubby keeps telling me "it will get done, sometime, I promise"!!! He is a man of his word!
