Book Description

June 1, 2008 Black & Decker Complete Guide
Inspiration and information to build the bathroom of your dreams

This is the first bathroom remodeling book to fully address every phase of the process, including inspiration, design and execution. Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Dream Bathrooms features luscious photos of on-trend baths containing the fixtures, colors and special touches that are in demand right now. But unlike most inspirational books, it doesn't stop there. This book ventures a step further to show readers precisely how to translate their dreams into a concrete plan that makes sense. Finally, more than half of the book is devoted to giving shape to those plans with tools, materials and sweat equity. Packed with step-by-step color photos, the book tackles dozens of common bathroom remodeling projects that just about any do-it-yourself can accomplish.

This revision of Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Bathrooms retains the hardworking and highly detailed information that made the original version one of the all-time top-selling bathroom books for DIYers. The book also puts a fresh focus on subjects and products that are on the cutting edge of bathroom design, such as installing low-flow fixtures, bidets, jetted bathtubs, and even how to install a water-saving urinal.

2.0 out of 5 stars Pretty bad..., December 23, 2009

This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Dream Bathrooms: Design Yourself & Save - Features New Products & Materials - Step-by-Step Instructions (Black & Decker Complete Guide) (Paperback)
I have returned this item to Amazon. It was pretty useless for a DIY beginner. It showed more of the end result rather than how to get there with very minimal instruction. I was extremely disappointed in this purchase. The only reason I gave it 2 stars were for the "final" photos.
