I have a basic 3 ft high brick porch with cement cap and to rebuild is around 1k.

It is a recently rehabbed manufactured home on a cement foundation.

Of course if you have only a $10k total rehab, that will typically take a bit longer than just a week, but when you get into the $100k and up rehabs, you want to be at or around $10k weekly.Time is your enemy on renovation flips as every week that goes by increases your holding costs (interest, taxes, insurance, maintenance, utilities, etc.) so when you can get to $10k completed weekly, you are saving money in holding costs.Another couple photos:Another additional item completed but not originally budgeted for was the new front gate, new cement at garage area, new gray fence on driveway and new black top coat on asphalt from street all the way down the driveway.

It's just a cement garage..

Just make sure that they don't use any sort of silicone,  roofer's cement, or similar sticky stuff to make the repair.

Why not just jack hammer the cement and use it to fill the pool, then haul in top soil to cover over the cement?

Then when you trowl down your new layer the cement will adhere to the wire mesh (and create a miniture rebar reinforcement), and beacuse the mesh is fastened to the original floor you should get a good bond.

One of the best ROI deals I ever did was add a 1/2 bath in the house that had a 8' X 10' laundry room accessible through the master bath.The only thing I did besides paint the existing bath white was add the following;Toilet- $5.00-yard salePedastal sink $20.00-discontinued at HDMirror $FREE (my favorite price) from the RealtorTowel bars etc $3.50-yard saleVarious PVC pipe, a toilet flange and PVC cement $25.00 or so, I already had a lot of it and there was some in the shed at the house when I bought.Permits N/A Satisfaction of earning $17,500 for a few day's work PRICELESSall cash

My husband says that it is not possible to add a dishwasher if we don't move the washing machine (which will require jack-hammering up the cement floor and moving plumbing and all that -- we have a plumber friend who will help, but the cost and time involved will still be great) It might be worth mentioning that the college has said it was considering housing adjunct professors or married students there.QUESTIONS:Will the college expect to have dishwashers?

As someone who has lived in Florida for over 20 years I didn't think this winter was very cold at all, certainly not cold enough to cement in anyones mind the need or desire for a fireplace, and definitely not a wood burning one at that.
