Estates at Stonebridge

[quote=familyguy]I agree Dave, probably has a lot to do with time and budget as well. Not everyone has the time to oversee and major remodel or the budget to undertake a big landscaping project.[/quote]

haha, hit the nail right on the head. contractors are like teenagers that never grew up. they do need constant and close supervision. and if you end up with a new house on 1/2 acre of dirt, that’s a whole lot of supervision.

That is correct. Call me crazy but im the guy who likes to sit at an auto dealership and wear down the salesman all day. I guess I am a masochist in that manner. What better way to spend a day at home but watching my contractors people all day long and busting balls! I work at home btw… 🙂

Im also lucky that i have friends that work in the line of work of all the landcaping and hardscaping fields. I just need a friend who builds pools… anyone have a recommendation?

That’s why you pay the big bucks to the General Contractor. His job is to supervise.

If you contract to typical workers, then you have to do the designing, conceptualization and supervising yourself.

I find that cheap price does not mean bad work, but the cheaper the price, the more the supervision required. It’s part of sweat equity.

I believe that’s true in any field. Well-paid professionals will do better work and require less supervision. The question is: what’s your budget?
