4.0 out of 5 stars
A good reference for planning DIY projects.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Do-it-Yourself...Or Not? (Paperback)
This book lists a number of potential do-it-yourself (DIY) home-improvement and repair projects. Each project has a short description of the labor and materials involved, along with a comparison of the costs and time for DIY versus hiring a professional. It offers a realistic approach to what it takes to do the project yourself, and it warns you of projects where your inexperience can lead to costly damage (for example, marring your hardwood floor during a refinish job). This book is not really a manual for exactly how to do a project, but it does offer some helpful hints. My only complaints are that the book could be a little more broad in scope and that it have a logical order how the projects are listed. Overall, it is worth reading if you are trying to decide whether to undertake home improvements yourself or hire a contractor.
