    Description
    The time is right for an authoritative how-to guide written by and for women. Statistics show that 85% of women are or expect to be solely responsible for a home at some point in their lives. And single women now comprise the second largest group of home buyers, just after married couples. Author JoAnne Liebeler approaches home improvement from a woman's perspective, with a blend of expertise and wit that women will appreciate. This book was created specifically for the woman of the house, with detailed explanations of how a house works, how it was built, and how its systems function. JoAnne elaborates on what tools work best for a woman and why, how to succeed at do-it-yourself projects, and when to call in outside help. Everything is covered: Walls, floors, plumbing, electrical, exterior maintenance, and common repairs. And with special sections on pest control and home safety/security issues, this is a must-have reference. Features: Home improvement primer written by a woman for women homeowners Step-by-step photos show basic instruction on proper tool usage How to handle the most common home repairs and improvements Guidelines for general and seasonal home maintenance -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Liebeler approaches home improvement from a woman's perspective, with a blend of expertise and wit that women will appreciate.
