clearly this guy thought he saw an opportunity to take advantage of a young couple (we look younger than we really are!). unfortunately for him, we're not stupid. so our contractor extraordinaire is coming to our rescue and doing the work this week. and his first comment was, "well i can at least tell you this isn't $8,000." :)
the painters on the other hand are doing a really great job (i also have them working on the new bathroom inside - final pics soon!) and they're very thorough. here's an in-progress photo!
sorry for the rant! have you had tradespeople try to take advantage of you?

Some tradespeople will take advantage of home owners with price. Thats why its important to get at least three bids, and check references of the people you hire. another thing to keep in mind is to never pay for more than half of the fee up front. Do these things and you will have a much better chance of a positive outcome.
