 Handbook of Construction Contracting: Estimating, Bidding, Scheduling, Vol. 2 February 20, 2006

Good Book with Clear Illustration of Estimation & Bidding for Residential Projects
A Seasoned Veteran September 5, 2002

When I started contracting nearly 30 years ago this book was quite useful in moving me from trades person to business person, the required move to be successful. It's still here and just as good for introducing the basics of construction contracting.
 A must for construction specialists and tradesmen September 15, 2000
41 out of 46 found this review helpful
This is vol 1 of a 2-vol work that takes the guess work out of estimating, designing, and planning a construction project. Whether building as a tradesman or contractor--or even as someone such as a homeowner wishing to contract the building of his house, this book is a must. I have been in the construction business for years and these two books are a must in my office and in my truck. I require all my key personnel to study them, a policy that saves money, time, and eliminates guesswork. On a scale of 1-10, I rate both a 10!

This book gets to the point with the basics showing how to do a job in detail with clear, concise instructions and drawings showing details that ensures professional performance. A must for a builder or tradesman engaged in the construction trades. I wouldn't start a job without it and I've been in the construction business for a good man years.

This is an excellent book for anyone wanting to build and contract their own home or for experianced builders who need a nononsense resource to contracting and home building. I have used this book and Vol 1 or many years and it has been nothing short of a time and money saver.
