Modern systems and materials mean that most domestic plumbing jobs are now well within the scope of do-it-your selfers--from simple repairs to major home improvements. This guide begins with the basic skills of plumbing, which once mastered, can be applied to any situation, from mending a leaking tap to installing a new shower unit. Illustrated throughout with step-by-step diagrams, this book will take you through every job, from start to finish.
