DIY for Renters: Don't Call the Landlord: A Renter's Guide to Repairs and Personalizations That Won't Break Your Lease

DIY for Renters is a repair and maintenance guide for everyone who rents--not owns--their dwelling. It is designed to help apartment and house renters perform common repairs and upgrades that are economical, safe, and do not conflict with tenant/landlord agreements. Author Charles Byers, an experienced vocational school educator, shows how to address all of the normal maintenance issues that every home encounters, from squeaky doors and wet basements to plumbing, heating and electrical repairs. Byers guides the reader to complete each project as inexpensively and perfectly as possible, using readily available materials from the local home center. He even includes tips on taking down and removing upgrades when it's time to leave the rental unit. Packed with step-by-step instructions, illustrations and color photos, this book teaches basic repair skills that potential future homeowners will use for the rest of their lives.
