Remodeling
for Easy Access Living
by Rick Peters
Hardcover: 192 pages
Publisher: Hearst (April 28, 2006)
ISBN: 1588164659 |
| Housing studies by the AARP reveal
that more than three-quarters of homeowners over 50 want to stay just where they are for
the rest of their lives. But as their physical abilities diminish, they may find it
increasingly difficult to navigate the home they love. Fortunately, with this
intelligently conceived, wonderfully illustrated room-by-room guide from Popular
Mechanics, older adults will find many ideas for modifying their space so that they can
continue to live independently. Some of the alterations are do-it-yourself; others may
require a professional. The more complicated tasks receive especially detailed discussions
so that you'll know exactly what the job entails, how long it should take, and what it
typically costs. |
