Worcerster contractor and rehab estimation

Chris Wang
Posted

Hi BP,

I'm a new rental property investor in Worcester, MA. I recently bought a small condo and there is someplace to decorate a little bit before listing for renting.

I'm thinking change a range and range hood, mirror in the bathroom, and re-painting the bathtub, maybe also the cabinets.  So hiring a contractor/contractors then gets into my mind.  I'm thinking if any BPers have similar experience can share the estimated costs of these works? And of course please recommend any contractors you think are great. Many thanks.

Replied

Hi Chris,

The range and stove are going to vary but I do like getting some of my appliances from the company scalamos! The mirror in the bathroom sounds like it would be relatively cheap. I had one of my bathtubs refinished and glazed for $500.00 so I think its worth it. As far as the cabinets, it depends if you just want to repaint them or replace them. If you can save them I'd get a professional to repaint them and change out any old hardware.  Best of Luck!
