It's finally here! JoAnne Liebeler's Do It Herself is an authoritative how-to guide written by—and for—women. Statistics show that 85% of women are (or expected to be) solely responsible for a home at some point during their lives. And single women now comprise the second largest group of home buyers, coming in just after married couples. So why not learn how to improve your home on your own?

Author JoAnne Leibler 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. Plus, you'll discover special sections on pest control and home safety/security issues. This is a must-have reference!
