Thanks for the information. For the contracting, we would like to do a kitchen remodel and are contemplating a room addition for my mother-in-law so she can move in with us and have a downstairs bedroom.
I appreciate your advice about getting everything written down and how you have to be on the contractor’s tail on inspecting the work at every step. I am somewhat pretty handy around the home thanks to a wood shop class I took in 8th grade and Youtube. Great advice on purchasing the material and being able to only pay for the labor.
For the room addition, I assume I will need permits and inspections for that? I live in San Diego and have never done this. If anyone does or has applied for permits, your input is appreciated.
Thanks again and if you can think of anything else, much appreciated!
