From the Author:

The Home Repair Book for the Rest of Us.
There are many around the house fix-ups that you can do yourself -- Really! This means that with many situations you can bypass calling the repair person and fix some of those annoying and costly broken items yourself. When I began researching this book I learned something...although there are numerous home improvement and repair books in stores today, almost all of them assume that the reader already knows the basics of repair. That's what separates my book from the pack -- in simple terms it shows you how to accomplish basic fix ups and maintenance chores in a simple, step-by-step manner. Simply stated, this book is designed for those of us who would like to save a few bucks and do basic repairs ourselves. But, it is quick to point out when a specific chore may be above your skill level and guides you when and if it may be necessary to call a professional. This is the type of book that you should keep on hand so that when something goes "bump" in the night you will have a place to turn. Not just for home owners, this is ideal for those who live in condos or apartments. It is also a great house warming gift for friends who are moving into a new home. Feel free to drop me a note with your comments.
