Comments from our editors:
Here is a book about fixing up those fixer-uppers, written for homeowners who want professional results and professionals who are serious about renovations.

Author George Nash starts with explaining whether your house is a diamond in the rough or a broken-down wreck not worth your effort.

You'll find information about replacing foundations, rebuilding windows, installing roofing and siding, repairing plaster, upgrading wiring, fixing plumbing and heating systems and more.
