This updated version replaced an old copy of the DIY Manual that was given to me some time ago.
Not much has changed, a couple of updates, but the advice remains good. A good reference, before you start any DIY/house maintenance job.

I gave this four stars because the man who wrote it doesn't come round and do the job for you - that's about all it would take for this to be perfect. It tells you how to plan your project and gives you all the skills to see it thru!
I just hope I can generate enough enthusiasm in My Husband to get him from reading to doing!
