Customer Reviews

Its current to about 2018 but theres lots of COLOR pictures included

I am not a plumber but I'm trying to learn the basics of plumbing and repairs. This books covers the usual items (shower, tubs, toilets, pipes, sinks) but doesnt cover smaller specific items. I was looking for how to repair/replace the sink drain and the rubber gasket but it didnt really show how to do that. It does show alot of installing fixtures & appliances but less on fixing them. Overall, I'd say its an okay book for the price but look for something more comprehensive & updated
