Product Details

In which denim-clad men and work-booted, pony-tailed, mom-jean-wearing women measure, fix, and construct various aspects of homes. Coverage of the entire home, from attic to basement, are illustrated well enough to make a grown man drool. From installing a new vanity to a sleeper floor in the basement, this offers enough instruction to step you through the major operations of each project, but watch out—it does not deal with covering everything that can (and will) go wrong or be freaky with your miserable excuse for a house. From installing metal ceilings to ceramic tile to three ways (three way switches, you filthy-minded galoot!), it’s all here. Other topics to pique your dude radar: installing wallboard. Bullnose edging. Installing an undersink garbage disposal. It might as well be a picture of Jessica Simpson—you can’t look away, can you? - Library Journal, April 1, 2010
This comprehensive bible of remodeling information and projects focuses on the significant projects that help homeowners add real value to their homes while bettering their lifestyles. Unlike other books, The Complete Photo Guide to Home Improvement isn’t diluted with basic home repairs, but gives readers foolproof instructions on more than 200 blockbuster home remodeling projects.

Excellent,
This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Photo Guide to Home Improvement: More Than 200 Value-adding Remodeling Projects (Hardcover)
gift for boyfriend, shipped so quickly. received like the next day. Doesn't say "use your Black and Hammer this" or "Black and Hammer that." Saw it at Chapters and it was half price, if not less, with free shipping! Excellent value!

I ordered this book to guide me on doing my DIY home renovation. Book shipped via UPS, delivery is missing. Amazon immidiately shipped the replacement, arrived on the third day. I am so happy with Amazon store's service. Should alway buy from them other than a third party seller, like some one named "kaymagistro", never ship anything to you, leave your order blocked there for one month, then nothing happened. I am finding all the chances to let everyone know this, to avoid same thing happen on you guys. This is not funny.Overall the book, is a very nice book, clearly teach you how to do, and what to do. But you have to have all the tools the book told you to use, that is a huge amount of money. The book did not tell you how to do the same job with the simplest tooling, at lowest cost. Anyway, you gotta learn something from it.
