Part of the "Illustrated Home" series,
By "g_clarke" (Toronto, ON) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Structure, Roofing, and the Exterior (Paperback)
With over 500 illustrations, "Structure, Roofing and the Exterior" shows you exactly what the finished job should look like. Alan Carson and Robert Dunlop prove in this easy-to-use book that pictures really are worth a thousand words. Through clearly detailed illustrations Carson and Dunlop walk you through your home, showing you just what your repairs and renovations should look like, inside and out. This book is an excellent tool for the new home owner or home inspector, showing you which pitfalls to avoid and what to look for when searching for potential problems in the structure, roof or exteriorof your or your client's home.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Good bood, but only if...,
By Peter J Blum (The Frozen Tundra of Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Structure, Roofing, and the Exterior (Paperback)
You're a Home Inspector or simply in search of picture after picture with little other detail other than technical information. If you are looking for advice on how to repair or fix items, DO NOT BUY this or other Carson Dunlop books in this series, or the - The Illustrated Home. Carson Dunlop is a firm out of Canada that does produce good materials for Home Inspectors, but these are not "how to" manuals, nor are these books good for the average home owner.Kind of sad when people write misleading reviews to simply increase sales. On the positive - DO BUY this book if you are simply looking for very detailed technical information.
