Synopsis

In this work, a veteran builder shows do-it-yourselfers how they can create space where there doesn't seem to be any, by rearranging or removing walls, raising or lowering ceilings, adding dormers and bay windows, fixing up attics and basements, or any number of other easy renovations. Starting with a crash course in the essentials of good design, Jones explains how to inspect the home for potential space-enhancing remodelling projects, with careful attention paid to evaluating aesthetics, practicality, manhours, and cost. Then he demonstrates - with step-by-step instructions, photos, and illustrations - how to make the most of existing square footage by increasing closet and storage space, converting attics and basements, framing and finishing interior walls, building stairs, even installing curb-mounted and self-flashing skylights.
