I had a quote for 4000 in Sept 1019 for a roof in May 2020 they came back and quoted me 20,000... got a text from the same guy saying they could do it for 10,000 this summer.
You get a new roof every year?
Exactly how things were in late ‘79.
Construction workers were begging for work (except the union thugs)
Down at the Union Hall, they were all paid to sit and do nothing.
Six months later, I went back to college for engineering.
Give it a few months if you can.
I’ve got footings poured, stem wall, plumbing rough-in and compacted fill waiting on the slab for the addition. I’ve held off over a year. I got tired of the snide attitude of some trades. Screw ‘em. Summer doesn’t last forever. Winter is coming. Electrician, HVAC, painter, trim and probably plumber won’t be needed. I can do that without them. It is that cast iron bath tub my wife got that is the plumbing problem but I bet I can manage with an engine hoist. I can do the septic as well.
I’ll wait until at least Fall to frame and weather in.
Can’t understand why lumber went down and now back up a bit. Sheet goods are a price problem that does not seem to go away. I will not pay $80 a sheet for advantech that I paid $27 for just two years ago.
