Edlyn 0 Report post Posted August 29, 2011 Looks like you have lots of hacking and reinstatement to do. Just went to the expo and got some quotes for mine..... they quoted me $60k just for reno work. I think a very big chunk comes from the feature wall carpentry work....somehow it seems.. nowadays....most ID try to quote many feature wall, is it a trend or just because they can make more money. I saw my friends place using wallpaper and thought she got a pretty good price for it... confused too.... Now going to talk to some contractors that are recommended in this forum...lets see what is their quote....Anyway, all the best ya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arowana 2 Report post Posted September 8, 2011 carpentry is always known to be the area where IDs can make the most gravy from you. No surprises there.Another way if you still want to go via the ID route is just let the ID do those parts that's best done together by 1 person. Hacking, tiling, electrical, ceiling, painting, toilet etc. All other standalone carpentry, can get a direct carpenter to come in and do. Much cheaper. The difficulty is if you have electrical points/wires embedded in your carpentry then it makes it hard to get a standalone carpenter to come and do such kindsd of carpentry.Good luck!
