All repairs in this book are not step by step. It has so many repairs that some of them are very brief. I tried to hang a pre-hung door and replace broken window glass. I had to reference to other books to complete the job. I also needed to install some pex ( cross linked polyurethane) piping and this book does not cover how to install it but does mention it on the different types of plumbing page. This book has lots of pretty pictures (colored high def) and comes in a thick hard cover. It even has a recommended supplier and contractor appendix. I recommend you buy this book with another book if you completely have no idea how to use a saw and hammer.
