Black & Decker Complete Photo Guide to Home Improvement: More Than 200 Value-Adding Remodeling Projects (Black & Decker Complete Photo Guide)by Black and Decker
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:With over 1,700 gorgeous, crystal-clear illustrations, your DIY home improvement projects have never been more straightforward. A decade ago, the original Complete Photo Guide to Home Improvement was lauded by do-it-yourselfers as an unrivaled resource in independent home renovation. Now, for the first time outside of the big-box building centers, it is available in a convenient, compact new size of 6.5" by 8.5"—the perfect fit for your toolbox. Finally, a home improvement how-to guide that’s equally at home on the job site as it is on your bookshelf. Three simple words can make your dreams of a better home come true at any time and in any economy: do it yourself. Armed with good information, some basic skills, and a can-do attitude, you’ll find that you can upgrade, renovate, or improve upon any room in your house—all without calling in an expensive professional. The Complete Photo Guide to Home Improvement is a comprehensive bible of remodeling information, focusing on the significant projects that help homeowners add real value to their homes while bettering their lifestyles. This new, compact edition contains beautiful step-by-step photos and foolproof instructions for each of the more than 200 home remodeling projects found in the original large-format book. Perhaps best of all, along with the size, we have also reduced the price to a bargain $24.99. Book News Annotation:Detailed color photographs, drawings, and diagrams along with the text explain some 200 popular remodeling projects in the kitchen, bathroom, basement and attic, and exterior.
