House Doctor is a highly successful prime-time Channel 5 series which shows you how simple changes to your home can dramtically increase its market value and help you secure that all-important sale – and make a substantial profit!
House Doctor, presented by straight-talking Californian property stylist Ann Maurice (the ‘Doctor’), has become compulsive viewing in the UK. Ann gives practical, inexpensive advice on how to present any type of home to the market in its best possible light, and clinch that all-important sale.
The focus of this book is not on dramatic or extreme makeovers of the Changing Rooms variety, but on styling the home you have to maximum advantage, and without spending a fortune. While aimed primarily at people wishing to sell their home, the book also provides plenty of ideas for people looking to smarten up their property, both inside and out, and then enjoy the results themselves. In fact, as participants in the programme have found, by following Ann’s advice their living space is so improved that they can’t bear the thought of some else getting the benefit!
House Doctor is illustrated with specially-commissioned photography from many of the real-life, on-site cases filmed for the series. The Before and After photographs show how each room in turn can be turned into a style winner. The book looks at a range of different types of property, from contrasting geographical areas, paying particular attention to that all-important first impression. We know that most buyers make up their mind about a property within a few seconds of entering, and often before getting beyond the front door. House Doctor explains what your home style and colours say about the home – and about you.
Specific topics covered include:
• creating a focal point in a room
• colours that never work
• dealing with techno-clutter
• scents and smells
• maximising ‘kerb appeal’ (why if you really want to sell your home you should paint your front door blue)
• making your garden an oasis not a scrapyard,

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
