Description

A new book from an evolving series that looks at housing types, The country's two leading expert advocates for salvaging parts of unwanted houses rather than demolishing them explain the green art of unbuilding (or deconstruction) and take the reader on a fascinating tour of the process. This is the first and only book that addresses this growing trend. Contains fascinating details on construction techniques for houses both ancient and of more contemporary vintage and methods used to determine their value or salvageability. Covers a variety of projects, from simply dismantling a wall to completely unbuilding an entire house safely, while saving the reusable parts and pieces for another building or for another purpose - including sales. It is satisfying, fun and economical to reuse old building materials both for their original purpose or for decorative purposes.
