Description
Maintaining Your Home's 358 full-colour pages are crammed with practical advice on common problems and their causes, what needs to be done about them and whether you should do-it-yourself or call for expert advice. It covers every part of your home, from subfloor to roof space and beyond, and includes charts for you to fill in to keep track of your maintenance over the years. For most of us, our home is our biggest asset and if you value the investment you have made, you need a copy of this book. It explains how your house works and how to keep it in top condition. It's a bit like an owner's manual for a car, computer or home appliance. This is not just a book for do-it-yourselfers either. It aims to give you the information to identify common problems, to explain their likely causes, and to tell you what should be done about them. The important thing is caring for your home - not who actually does the work. There's general maintenance information - common problems, preventative maintenance and condition checks. And then there's the inspection/action or troubleshooting section. This section shows you how to deal with emergencies, such as a burst water pipe. First published 1995; this second edition September 2006.Stock Information
