Great book for all aspects of bathroom remodeling March 11, 2010

I grabbed a copy of this book from my library along with several other titles. This one by far stands out in comparison to the others. It has very practical, no-nonsense advice on almost all aspects of bathroom remodeling. For example, it gives you pictures and detailed instructions about different ways to tile in a window frame. It also touches on subjects you will likely need to know, such as replacing drywall. The section on creating a mortared shower floor was especially useful, as other bathroom books automatically assume I will be installing either a tub or a shower pan. I plan on getting other books from Stanley to see if the quality is matched throughout the series.
With clear instructions and many, many full-color pictures, I feel confident that I can tackle my bathroom on my own even with my limited experience.

I have to say of all the DIY books out there, the Stanley line is at the top of my list. I have been studying how-to-update a few items in my house, and am pretty new to the process, so after purchasing quite a few other "useless" literature for more money, Stanley has done a pretty good job in meeting my expectations. There are a lot of illustrations in color and the step-by-step instructions are outlined adequately. Please keep in mind it may not cover every single job in "Baths" that you may be interested in, but helps minimize the "fear factor" for those of us that have no idea what we're doing (yet). I am honestly pleased with this purchase... unfortunately, I haven't started DIYing yet.
