It’s not like I’m cheap (well, a little) or we can’t afford it. We’re putting a pool in the backyard…that’s where I want to splurge. That will be our (his) oasis. The front…I’m not here to impress anyone. I just want something basic and I don’t see handing over $2550 (while I sit on my rear and watch) when I can do it myself for less than half of that.
Does anyone else feel me?

Get at least three quotes. You can do ANYTHING yourselves...with permission from the Architectural Review Committee. Talk to your neighbors. People are overcharged a lot if they don't do their homework. But not just here....everywhere.
