Now, 22 leading preservationists provide expert advice, illustrated with photographs and explanatory line drawings, on every aspect of the subject, including:•structural systems, roofs, and windows•masonry, woodwork, plaster, paint, and wallpapers•mechanical and electrical systems•kitchens and bathrooms•landscaping•fire protection, insurance appraisals, and tax and estate planning•developing and carrying out a maintenance plan•identifying appropriate materials and procedures for repair•determining if professional help is needed, and choosing the best help availableA companion volume to Abrams' Caring for Your Collections, this book is a joint project of Heritage Preservation, formerly the National Institute for the Conservation of Cultural Property, and the National Park Service.
