Home Remodeling































为了抗膨,想要在客厅里腾出一些位置来做第三间小房。。大概是50sqf 吧。。要很simple的,不需要wiring, 我觉得就只需要一个门,两块板哈哈。。昨晚上网register了一个关于 home modeling 的网页,看来美国就是美国,不到一个钟,就有人call 我,了解详情了。。单单今天就已经收到了10多通knoxville 当地的contractor..效率非常的好。。呵呵。。大概市价是如此。。

Material:
2x4 = $66.00
fasteners = $50.00
wall material (in place of dry-wall) = $180.00
door = $65.00

Material estimate total $361.00
Labor = $500.00

看来labor cost很高。。可能是此单生意太小了,所以他们想要拖就些,那样labor cost就高点。。可是为了给这个房子的down payment已经清仓了,可能我需要DIY 了。。从小到大,从没想过会亲自remodel 房子。。确实蛮新鲜。。我想应该不会有问题吧,有其父,必有其子。。我老爸可以,为何我不能呢??看看我父亲remodel的房子。。前面那个坐着的老爷就是john tham,我老爸。。他出屋,我出贷款。。设计师是他,他在这方面也真的很有天分。。可惜跑去当差人。。身为他孩子,我也应该有点遗传吧。。呵呵。。就等着瞧吧。。

The advantages to remodeling by yourself:

2) Personal-Fits your style
However tou should make sure the size&space of the home is adequate for your immediate&future use.Most important,do not destroy home viewing!
