4.0 out of 5 stars Great Examples, Educational, Contractor perspective, 12 Jun 1998
By A Customer
As someone planning a remodel, I found this book to be very good reading and educational. The two examples of Good/Bad remodel are excellent. I learned alot. Then only negative thing I can say is that he had, in my opinion, a bias towards the contractors position (he is a former contractor). He tries to be fair and in general is, but with a little bias towards his former perception. That being said the book was great.

5.0 out of 5 stars A 'Must Buy' for those who are building or remodeling, 26 April 1998
By A Customer
Of all the books we've ordered to educate us for our upcoming home renovation/addition, this has been the best. After I read Rusk's book, I passed it on to my husband, so we'd be on the 'same page' when evaluating contractors. Subsequently, I bought 2 more copies, for the architect we're working with & contractor-TBD. The architect's finding great value in it as well. Together, we've been using this book to help us select the best contractor for our project. Rusk's advice is terrific & has been our bible.

5.0 out of 5 stars IF (Read this book) THEN (Hire Contractor) ELSE (Fail), 11 Nov 1997
By A Customer
A simple approach to running your home remodeling project that will reduce pain and suffering to a minimum. By taking you through the perspectives of client, architech and contractor, John Rusk enables you, and them, to do their best work. We have just bought two copies - one for our architech and the other for our contractor!
