Title: Weak!
Review: This is a high level overview of renovation with almost no useful details. The author tries to address too many things and in doing so never goes into depth anywhere. I bought the book to learn his take on cost estimation. He spends 1/2 page giving ballpark numbers for an "average-sized house" and it is too high level and he leaves a bunch of stuff out. If you know absolutely nothing about renovation then this book is a quick read and it might give you an idea of SOME of what there is to learn elsewhere. If you don't know anything about renovation before you read this book and all you do is read this book, HIRE A GENERAL CONTRACTOR AND DON'T ATTEMPT THIS YOURSELF!
