tjl 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2011 Hi Steelze, Nice reno My hubby & I are also on quite a tight budget, do you mind sharing which ID did you engage for ur hse? We did went for a few but most of them gave us an estimate budget of $50k which looks similar to what you have. Yours seems so much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
