So, the guy @ 84 Lumber really did an amazing job for us and has provided us with service and a good price. However, we have a contact @ Witt Lumber that just beat his price by $3k. It's a tough situation - but we're going to have to let 84 have a last crack at it. We can't turn down that price difference. Although I think some of the price difference is in Advantech vs. Gold edge as well as just shaving off of the truss quotes. 84 has bent over backwards for us - and have really helped us out when our architect totally screwed us over by being an AWOL idiot. So, hope we make the right call here. It's GO time. We gotta get windows and lumber package ordered by Friday. We gotta get concrete in basement prepped for pouring the pad too. Lots to do.
And, I balanced the checkbook - it's not as bad as I feared. But it's not as good as we hoped. We're at $32k right now - and not a TON that shows from the outside looking in. we'll have way over $50k in this stupid basement that we never wanted.
Oh, yeah, the waterproofing people should be getting us a quote - probably another $2k that wasn't in the budget down the drain. *sigh*
