In a way this is good news since it may portend the end of the oil glut, but for all of those oil field workers, oil companies and suppliers this reflects a lot of pain.  

Ask the supplier whether they have any remnant pieces they'll sell you at a discount.

You also need a lien release from him and any vendors/suppliers he had work on your property.

Find a flooring supplier and ask them what contractors do a lot of business there.  

The secret is to become a supplier to them then they stop being competition and become clients :-)

Hey @Matthew Cornell - you could simply call suppliers and ask them what the cost is for the material.

The developer is stuck between a rock and a hard place as it struggles to restart stalled construction work due to its whopping $148 billion owed in trade and other payables to suppliers as of June.

I don't find it cost effective, I can usually design a kitchen using stock sizes and fillers.What I'd really like to find is a supplier of quality all-ply Euro style frameless at a similar price point to the Fabuwood and it's ilk.

And to get more granular, if you break a window it's not like you can replace it with the white vinyl windows you likely have in your house that you can order through 50 suppliers or your local Home Depot.Anyway, it sounds like an ulcer-inducing adventure! 

I remember you saying that you were doing a lot of good reading and it's a good one to add to the list.On top of starting to get pricing for local estimates, you can start using your visits to properties to make room by room checklists so when you walk a property you'll get better and better at notation items to help with your estimating and the creation of your scope of work.You might want to start checking out suppliers - don't forget to familiarize yourself with some of the used building suppliers in your area - Restore, etc.
