Taunton's Plumbing Complete by Rex Cauldwell

If you want to tackle a home plumbing job yourself -- and save a few bucks in the process -- here's the book for you.

In Plumbing Complete, master plumber Rex Cauldwell gives you all the expert advice you'll need to handle virtually any plumbing project with confidence.

From the basic plumbing problems everyone faces to complex challenges that are a little trickier, you'll learn everything you need to get things running smoothly again. (The few projects not covered by the author are ones that absolutely should be handled by a plumbing professional.)

What's unique about this book is how easy it is to find and use the valuable information on every page -- with detailed instructions and clear, step-by-step photos that make every procedure easy to understand and implement.

You'll also appreciate the intuitive finding devices and table of contents featuring visual symbols that make it easy to find whatever type of project you're looking for -- and get started quickly.

Here's an example of what you'll discover.

• The tools you'll need for every project
• Understanding the drain/vent system
• How to clean and unclog pipes
• Repairing faucets and toilets
• Installing a new bath
• Working with kitchen appliances

  When you consider the high cost of even the most simple plumbing repair job, it's easy to see how this useful book can be a smart investment that helps you save on every job you handle yourself.
