padJLC Construction Tips & Techniques

JLC Construction Tips & Techniques has more than 300 tough contractor questions, in a Q & A format, with straightforward answers and effective solutions from the construction industry's leading experts.

On the typical residential job site, hardly a day goes by without some question being raised. How could we do that faster? Is there a better way? What's the strongest - or most durable - method? How do I install this product?

Even after a project is built, the questions continue. Why is there condensation in the attic? What's causing those black spots? Why is the exterior finish flaking?

JLC Construction Tips & Techniques gathers together questions that builders have sent JLC over the past decade, and provides answers written by the most capable experts we could find.

You'll find questions and answers on all aspects of residential building and remodeling problems:
  • foundations and site work
  • framing, roofing
  • exteriors
  • plumbing and electrical
  • thermal and moisture control
  • HVAC and interiors
Organized in order of construction, this unique book faces the tough problems that are always coming up on the job site, and tells how to solve them.

JLC Construction Tips & Techniques is packed with step-by-step instructions and large, clear illustrations, this is a book you can refer to for a straight answer to just about any on-the-job problem you come up against.
