MTlot 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2009 ADDITIONAL DEMOLITION & WET WORKS Erect half height wall with hollow blocks in kitchen for L shaped kitchen cabinets $150.00 This item can ask them to waive off should be able too. And then to save some cost if budget a bit tight change the doors to classic should be able to cut 40% off the price. Just 2cents opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

user101 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2009 What some research and home-works can do? My 1st quote from a "Old family friend" = $57,000.00 2nd quote from one of the popular contractor in this forum = $47,000.00 3rd quote from a neighborhood contractor (Non-renoTalk) = $37,000.00 4th quote from a contractor that a friend recommended (Non-renoTalk) = $37,000.00 All the above spec given for the quote are about 90% similar. I wonder! How the h*ll could the quotation be $20,000.00 difference? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder! How the h*ll could the quotation be $20,000.00 difference? most likely will be the material n design ba. ID and contractor will also hv diff pricing. In order to be fair to the contractor, u got to compare against apple to apple. but anyway no harm to get more quote, if u interested can try up with my contractor.
