A Customer said The Carey Brothers' book was the VERY BEST on the subject!!. Morris and James Carey saved my sanity, my wallet, and quite possibly my marriage with their book "Home Remodeling for Dummies"! There are very few things in life more stressful than a remodel, but this book helped me put the stress where it belonged- on everyone else! I learned how to plan the addition for my twins room from concept to sunset, and I learned how to deal with a contractor. allen rose said Authors / Title are deceptive. THANKS FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!! Book claims in the description to have loads of charts and step by step instructions for remodeling .Personally i do not consider an example of a contract to be an example.Like in the section about replacing windows, now there is where a diagram is needed.Yes i may have been a sucker for buying the book, but the dummies are definitely the authors !!!!.
