It would probably be easier to run new pipes not underground, but through the ceiling, which would mean opening up a lot of walls and ceilings.

Like - there is no ceiling.

not to sound negative, but you should first start.... get 9, make lots of money, then start thinking about the soft ceiling.you never know... you might hate it before you get to 2. or you might love it and buy the 10th cash, so you avoid the ceiling.

The last one I built was a 3300 sq foot center hall colonial with 9' first floor ceilings, a wood burning fireplace, 2x6 exterior wall construction & R-19 in the walls, all low-e glass...it cost me $106K delivered & set, on a new 31'x52' foundation that cost $25K.

So, rain water coming in thru the roof can weaken the ceiling and go into the walls and soak into the carpet with dirty (probably dog poop).

clean title. 1 current leak through the kitchen window, leaks damaged LR floor, and water rings on ceiling in bedroom. pics provided:http://s1359.beta.photobucket.com/user/rowan52/library/The $3k was to move from city to city, about 45mins.

For example, the buy the side frame pieces by the mile and the little parts that hold the frame in are purchased 50,000 at a time.I can't buy just the materials for what they charge for materials AND labor.I agree that screens are a nightmare.My biggest things I remove for rentals are garbage disposals and ceiling fans.

Or, there was a small ceiling leak from a shower or toilet.

I can't imagine that any liability waiver would protect me if the tenant decided he was going to try to get the thing working and there was an accident--like electrocution.Based on some knowledgable sounding posters here on BP who remove ceiling fans, garbage disposals and dishwashers, I am thinking I am not going to find many folks that would think this is a good idea.

Works on floors, walls and ceilings.
