I loved this book. I did not know anything about how to fix things around the house and what tools to use etc. This book helped a lot in understanding types of jobs, what tools to use, time and process and materials required.
I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get his hands dirty doing some work around the house and dont know where to start.

This was a gift to us from my father-in-law after we bought our home almost six years ago. We've used this guide to design and execute such projects as refinishing walls, paver patios, small masonry projects, basic electrical work, insulation installation, tile floor installation, and much more - and many sections (plumbing) we have yet to use. This is our first reference and first go-to-guide for any and all home improvement projects and has become our absolute MUST gift for a first-time home owner.

I bought this book for my brother-in-law, a fix-it man. I did give it to him. However, when I saw how beautiful the book and its illustrations were, I wanted it for myself. Who doesn't need to know how to do things around home?

A friend lent me the 1980 edition of this book when I start remodeling my house. I liked it so much that I bought that new updated version. It's full of details and very accurate.

The book that I ordered through Amagon was received timely and in new condition, as stated. I would order from this seller again.
