5.0 out of 5 stars
Great for new homeowners,
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Trouble-Free Home Repair (2nd Edition) (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is great. It talks about tools and techniques for all kinds of home repairs. It recommends what tools everyone needs for basic repairs, and which tools are useful but aren't necessary. If you are a first-time homeowner like I am, and you've never had to deal with this subject before, this is your book.

Home repair book.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Complete Idiot's Guide to Trouble-Free Home Repair, 2E (The Complete Idiot's Guide) (Kindle Edition)
This book was very difficult to navigate on the kindle. You would think for what your paying for it that you could breeze through the chapters instead of going one page at a time.
