Builders Booksource

With the proliferation of home-improvement shows it seems that if you have a thousand dollars and a can of paint you can turn any room into a designer showroom. For anyone who is looking for a reality check or a house that doesn't involve MDF, stop by Builders Booksource. The aptly named bookstore stocks titles focusing on the building trade--a phenomenal resource for contractors and architects. Among urban design and architecture books are official building code books and electrical wiring guides. While the store isn't necessarily for amateurs, it will give you an idea of what is required for a particular project and while you may not be able to complete your home improvement project, you will at the very least be an educated consumer.
