This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Patios: Plan, Build and Maintain (Black & Decker Complete Guide) (Paperback)
I bought this book because of the pictures, I am the owner of [..] and I am always looking for new and creative ideas to bounce off of. I thought I could also use this book for training material for our crews but it was to simple. It makes the whole process seem easier than it is. In the end this book is just good for the pictures.

Complete deck building book,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Patios: Plan, Build and Maintain (Black & Decker Complete Guide) (Paperback)
Before I start any major project, I always purchase a manual to make sure I understand all the requirements and see if there are any new ideas. This is my second Black & Decker building book and it is excellent. The manual covers almost all aspects of the subject from design to building and maintaining a deck. I especially like the step by step construction details for laying out the deck, digging and pouring the piers, constructing the framing, and all other aspects of the project. Building codes are also covered. Of course, local codes variations are not addressed.
I highly recommend this book for any DIYer wanting to build a deck. |
