Basic Plumbing - Pro tips and simple steps

This is an excellent book with tons of pictures and drawings. I am the inhouse repairman for an apartment building and this is an excellent reference manual... Should make my job much easier. Highly recomend this book.

A Must Have

When I first purchased my house, I bought a plethora of home repair books. This stood out as one of the best. It offers all the information you would need for basic plumbing repairs within the house. From the bathtub to the kitchen sink to the toilet, this book covers all sorts of problems that arise in the average household. A great book for the home repair library. Invaluable.

An excellent for a beginner

This book is an excellent instructional book for a novice/starting plumber like me, an IT/electronics person. With the excellent fundamentals, the nice and colorful drawings and the detailed step-by-step instructions, I was able to replace a p-trap, a tail piece and a strainer of a kitchen sink on my own. I attribute this first-ever accomplishment of mine to this book. The book is so simple, so informative, even a 12-year-old can do the job after a few minutes of reading. Highly recommended for aspiring plumbers. How's that for cost-saving from expensive plumbers and boosting your self-actualization and learning a new skill ?
