Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Bathrooms, Third Edition: *Remodeling on a budget * Vanities & Cabinets * Plumbing & Fixtures * Showers, Sinks & Tubs (Black & Decker Complete Guide) Paperback – September 1, 2010

The plot is pretty basic and easy to follow. Spoiler alert!! It all comes out in the end!This book is a very useful book for beginners helping them to understand the magnitude of what they are planning. The book also helps to understand the language of the construction industry, esp., that needed for construction of bathrooms. The pictures are clear and well labeled. I strongly recommend this book for beginners and those with construction skills with this being their first bathroom to build.

I am mechanically inclined but i found this book goes into great depth for me. I feel as though i could follow this book alone and put in a bathroom whenever i am done. I especially appreciate the section that focuses on the custom showers which is what i aspire to put in my master bedroom downstairs some day. Thank you black and decker, i will be checking into your other books.

Good price, good product.

since I am not doing a bathroom and probably never will, not DIY anyway. I'm going to hire people to do it for me. I just through I ought to get an idea of what to look out for and all that when the guys come to make sure they are doing things right. But now, I'm not sure I'll be able to do that. I'm torn between staying blissfully ignorant about what goes into making your "dream" bathroom and having to fight with the contractors to have every little thing my way--sometimes they have insights (they don't tell you about) as to why they do things the way they do.

I think this book is great for handy people who have never remodeled a bathroom before. It is not for those who are not comfortable using hand tools, etc. I like the organization of the book and that it gives pros and cons for different materials. I would definitely buy this book again.

i have most of the series of these Black and Decker books, and i love them, i am a do it yourselfer and they go into detail on how to repair or replace things in the house, and they are pictures instead of drawings. i had a bunch of older ones and i am updating them to newer ones. great books..

If you are looking for a basic bathroom remodeling guide, this will work. But don't expect it to help you repair a busted pipe. There are some nice inspiration pictures, and it does cover a range of options for new bathrooms.Overall, it's a nice addition to the home improvement shelf. Though, if you need a repair manual, pass on this book for now.

I read this book before remodeling my bathroom. It is very helpful and informative. I understood better what to expect before I hired a contractor. It helped me discuss intelligently the work that would be done. I would highly recommend this book whether you will do the job yourself, or give it to a contractor.
