It’s costing in the neighborhood of $30k for all the demo and all the construction. I overshot my planned budget by about 30% due to some surprises we found in the yard and some things I changed my mind on once we got started. That’s why it’s always good to get an initial bid well below the funds you have available–things WILL change 🙂

Yep, I’ve heard this (time and cost overruns) from every single person who has ever had any work done. They say you should always calculate a minimum of 20% more than the actual estimate.
Good luck with the rest of the job. Just getting it done will be cause for celebration. Enjoy! 🙂
