PLEASE NOTE: We are closing down our book retail business, and have a clearance sale of all our titles on the Amazon website (www.amazon.co.uk). Books that we still have available in our Clearance Sale are listed on their website under 'Used and new'. For most of our remaining titles, we are listed as the cheapest UK seller of a 'New' book - typical discount is about 40%.

You can no longer purchase our books via a 'basket and checkout' system on this website. You may however, wish to browse our site for books that interest you - and then purchase them on Amazon. To view our Amazon Storefront (in a new window), click here.

We used to specialise in books for selfbuilders. Many of our books were also of interest to professional housebuilders and related trades, and to keen DIYers.

We still publish some books ourselves. For details of these, see Our Publications.

We used to retail a large number of other books by mail order. For titles of books, see British Books and American Books.

We no longer sell books at selfbuild exhibitions. (Because of the trend towards buying online, we eventually had too many browsers and not enough buyers.)
