Mr. Fix It,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mr Fix-It: 101 Answers to the Most Commonly Asked Questions About Repairing Your Home (Paperback)
I got this book as a gift and I love it! It has really come in handy for those unexpected problems that come up around the house. The book offers clear, easy to understand explanations. I find myself choosing to fix things myself now, instead of having to pay someone or wait for someone else to do it for me. I am going to buy a copy for my mom for Mother's Day (or maybe for my dad for Father's Day).

The Ultimate Homeowner's Guide,
By Jesse B Ellyson (Dale City, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mr Fix-It: 101 Answers to the Most Commonly Asked Questions About Repairing Your Home (Paperback)
Brought to us by the good folks at Ace Hardware this is a must have for any home owner. Mr. Fix-it is, indeed, the man to go to with any home related question. Here in this book you will find the answers to all your home needs. Lou Manfredini tells you how to fix that leaky faucet, how to put in that new over head track lighting, what to do if your walls need some touch up, what kind of caulk to use in that crack along the outside wall and how to take care of just about every other project you may consider. There is even a chapter on how to find a good contractor for those jobs you just can't do on your own. The book is separated into chapters concerning interior repairs, exterior repairs, plumbing jobs, electrical jobs, mechanical system maintenance, and choosing a contractor. Each chapter contains commonly asked questions and Lou's answers to those questions. His writing is short and to the point. Each answer is given in easy to understand language and leaves the reader with no doubt as to how to go about solving the problem at hand. Where needed there are easy to follow diagrams but most of the explanations in this book are so clear the no further information is required. This is, by far, the best do-it-yourself book I've found and I've been working in the hardware and home improvement industry for over ten years. I've read them all and this one stands well above the rest. Simply put, if your questions aren't answered by this book then the task at hand is probably one which you should leave to a professional anyway. Having said that I will still say that 99% of your home related troubles will be solved right between the pages of this book. You wouldn't go sky diving without a parachute and, likewise, you should not own a home without this book.
