Book Reviews of Home Maintenance for Dummies
Book Review: Excellent source for "the rest of us"
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a GREAT book for first-time buyers or for people who never learned what should be done to your home to keep it in good shape. The book is well organized and has two main sections, indoor maintenance and outdoor maintenance. The book also includes nice graphical guides for those of us (me!) that need more than your basic instructions. Another great feature of the book are montly to-do's, to keep you on track throughout the year.
However, by far, the best thing about the book is it has saved me money! There are things outlined in the book that I thought I would have to pay someone to do, but realized how simple they really were and was able to do them myself!
