5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent source of info, April 21, 2000
This review is from: Tips & Traps When Renovating Your Home (Paperback)
This book does not provide a lot of detail, but the informationit does provide covers everything from installing floors to skylightsto remodeling a whole room. The book is easy to read and does a good job of highlighting things to look for when attempting a job. I would use this book as a reference point before I start a project and then use the information it provides to delve further into the subject.
