Product Description
There's no place like home!
And that's why we're back. Dare to Repair, Replace & Renovate is the sequel to Dare to Repair, the national bestselling home repair book for women.
In our first book, we taught you how to fix a leaky faucet. In this book, we teach you how to replace it. In our first book, we showed you how to change the direction of ceiling fan blades. In this book, we show you how to install a new fan. We've gone from basic repairs to easy projects that can make your home more comfortable, more beautiful, and more valuable. We will show you how to:
- Put up a tile backsplash
- Install a closet system
- Install a deadbolt lock
- Replace a medicine cabinet
- Mount blinds, shades, and shutters
- Install landscape lighting
And we provide easy, step-by-step instructions so you can get rid of the things in your home that are making you crazy:
- Ugly chandelier? Gone.
- Outdated vanity? Out of there.
- Broken garbage disposal? History.
- Torn wallpaper? Buh-bye.
Incorporating detailed illustrations with witty and encouraging instructions, Dare to Repair, Replace & Renovate will allow you to turn your project wish list into a can-do list.

Clever and user friendly...even for me!, Jun 23 2009
By Ann Elizabeth Walker - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dare To Repair, Replace & Renovate (Paperback)
I just ordered 5 of these books this week after borrowing my friends copy. How refreshing to have a "how-to" book that is actually fun to read! My nieces are adults with homes of their own and I know they will thoroughly enjoy and benefit from the practical and updated info provided.

I was disappointed in this book. The content is made up of mostly common knowledge. It was only slightly helpful.
