When Patsy Rowe decided to build her first house she thought she could leave it all up to the builders - after all, they were the experts. However, the five months she spent as Site Supervisor on the house - a job she undertook because nobody else seemed to be doing it - were fraught with traumas, frustrations and confrontations. She did sweat and she did worry because, inevitably, it was never jake.
This book is a lighthearted and even affectionate look at the building industry.
