Whether you are just starting to remodel your basement or really just thinking about it, this would be the guide for you. This book has it all from actually planning the project to physically doing the work. The good thing is it's brought to you in a fashion that an everyday handyman can handle. No professionals allowed here. Well, there are stints where he'll suggest some professional help but other than that, the author really does a good job walking you through everything thats needed for a successful basement remodeling project. From planning to drywalling those basement walls, it's in there. From painting to framing, it's in there. In full color pictures and some very helpful pro tips along the way, I really enjoyed this one. The one thing that did seem to be slighted a bit was that surrounding older basements. He does talk about some of the nuances of them but most of tips seemed geared to ones less than 10 years old.
