The Complete Book of Old House Repair & Renovation

Summary: This Old Fix
Review: This is a great addition to my Time-Life library. Having been a fan of the This Old House program for many years and a subscriber to their magazine, I thought I had seen everything. I was wrong. This volume really shows the detailed steps necessary to make your projects come to life. Since I picked up this book I have taken on the daunting job of building my own deck, and laying a new hardwood floor. Many of the techniques I used came from this book, and at the very least it made me believe that almost no home improvement project is beyond my meager skills. A great place to start, and to gain some confidence.
