Excellent DIY Guide

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago

While this book fulfils a sensitive and much needed niche for women, it is an excellent basic DIY guide for men too. The text is admirably free from exasperating jargon, the diagrams are excellent, the explanations are very clear and the instructions are very logically presented. This is particularly helpful to readers with disabilities in that they can easily assess whether or not they may need assitance with a project. Whether the reader wishes to undertake a range of DIY projects or whether they simply wish to be better informed to discuss projects with tradespeople, this book is ideal. Highly recommended.

great book for the first-time woman homebuyer

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago

This is a great book for the new female home owner who doesn't want to spend all her time and money at the big-box how-to stores or be at the mercy of professional tradespeople. Written with the special needs of women in mind, especially in regard to safety and environmental concerns, this is a light-hearted, yet serious book that will come to the rescue when you need quick, good answers. Joanne knows what she is talking about and helps you feel good about taking the best care of your biggest investment. Buy it for yourself or give to a friend. Fine Book.

Who needs a man??!!!

I love this book! My husband is in Iraq, leaving me to handle the kids and home maintenance. This book is a great resource and designed for women in mind, leaving out all the "contractor talk." It's also very funny and entertaining.

Perfect for women who want to develop basic home repair skills.
