On my scale of 1 to 10, this well-organized and detailed book rates a solid 10. — Chicago Tribune, August 1, 2003
This step-by-step, fully illustrated guide takes do-it-yourselfers through the process of designing, planning, and executing the finishing or remodeling of a basement-one of the most rewarding and popular home improvement projects for today’s budget-conscious homeowners.

Luckily I rented this book from the local library and didn’t buy it as it is truly worthless. I am as green as you can get when it comes to home remodeling and this book didn’t provide anything a novice could use. There are many other books that go into much more detail that are worthy of buying.
If you are truly approaching a basement refinishing project from a beginners point of view, this book will be of little if any use to you. Poor illustrations coupled with less than adequate descriptions make it a pure waste of money.
