Book Reviews of The Black & Decker Complete Guide to Home Plumbing: Newly Expanded 3rd Edition
Book Review: Not too shabby
Summary: 4 Stars
I am a real plumber, and I bought this as a bit of a reference guide. For the beginner or the DYI at home person that does not know much its a awesome book. A lot of pictures and a lot of instruction on how to do this and that. For me I was really hoping that it would have had a lot more plumbing codes(a section would of been nice). Also I think a reference section on pipes and their relevant information(how often you have to brace them,and so forth)could of been touched on more.
Also I don't also recall it telling some plumbing no-no's which is bad for the home DYI'er such as galvanic corrosion and such. I think more mentions of these would have been helpful for letting a non-mechanically and knowledgeable individual from making costly future mistakes.
But for the amount of colorful pictures and explanations, I think it is a fabulous book, but if your an actual plumber, I think it could only be used as a slight reference.
