My husband and I purchased this book because we wanted to try and remodel one bathroom by ourselves. Some of the projects we attempted (new floor tile) and they turned out pretty good. Replacing the tub was beyond us and we hired someone to refinish it. So the book was money well spent. If you want a step-by-step guide on how to do very basic bathroom remodel, this is a good place to start.
