Editorial Reviews:

To get the best remodeling results, you need solid advice from the best in the business. For Pros by Pros(R) books bring you field-tested techniques and real-world experience from the expert builders and remodeling pros who write for "Fine Homebuilding" magazine.
"Roofing, Flashing, and Waterproofing" gives you the technical expertise and seasoned advice you need to protect your work from water, the home's eternal enemy. Leaks large and small cause the majority of damage in the house, and efforts to prevent or repair that damage account for most of the money spent on home repair. This book presents the basic principles you need to know to waterproof residential structures properly to protect them from water intrusion and to prevent callbacks for flashing or roofing failures.

User Comments about the Roofing, Flashing & Waterproofing (For Pros By Pros)

This book is just like the others in this series. This book would have given me the knowledge to correctly select materials, emphasize specific procedures, oversee the work knowledgeably and to finally inspect the completed work. I had my roofing replaced eight years ago and I wish I had read this book then. I have ordered several books in the For Pros by Pros series. It is informative, detailed and good reading. This is great information to have for a few dollars when considering a $5000-$8000 roofing job. Even if you care not to apply this information as a DIY'er you will be well informed if you plan to hire a roofing company to repair or replace roofing.

Although this book is a collection of articles taken from Fine Homebuilding magazine, there is much to learn from. Very helpful and useful. Covers nearly every type of roofing material including 3-tab, architectural, metal, slate, aluminum, and more. Also covers every aspect from tear-off to underlayment and flashing.

Thanks, this was the right book at the right time. Was a great reference to help me remember what a decade had helped me forget. As I type, the roof is done and should hold the water outside.
