That is why when you buy a resale you must figure in these prices, which make a lot of the homes over priced.to buy. Bathrooms remolding start a 25K. joelfmi@aol.com question a retired designer. |
Re: Lowes and Home Depo
Based on my experience. We bought carpet from Lowes. We had shopped it around.
The people we spoke to elsewhere reminded me of the old jokes about used car salesmen. Our crooked brand carpet compares to sort of sales pitch. Our install crew
they are the best. One is my nephew and yours will be his first job since he completed his PHD in art history.
Our previous home. I asked a person I knew had recently had his roof done who he used. He highly endorsed the company he used. We got a quote that was actually higher than Lowes or Home depo. But, my friend said they were great. so we hired them. The job was terrible. After it was completed, they send you a form. If, you recommend them for a job they send you if I recall it was $500 or $1,000. Not only did I pay too much for a lousy job but, my,"friend," disappeared.
Moral. Good work is not cheap. Cheap work is not good. You get what you pay for.
