Reviews

Rich with diagrams and photographs...the authors set aside chapters for the evaluation of electrical, mechanical, and plumbing systems, helping the prospective purchaser to better understand what to look for with an old building, and what you're looking at when you complete walk-through on the property. (HeritageOhio.org, July 2009)
