I have a rule-of-thumb for how much interior and exterior house paint should cost in labor and materials per square foot, over surfaces in a decent condition. 

At a minimum I am responsible for 40% of the installation and materials no matter what.

They came in and used material that has fiberglass and left it all in the floor of the basement.

Cost of labor and materials is through the roof, and as are house prices.

It is multifamily focused and provides good material.

Months to a year seems typical.3- Get competitive bids to make compare prices and don't pay for services/materials you haven't received.

You can get new windows installed (labor and materials) for around $250 - $300 per window.

I guess I was never really reading what interested me, material definitely matters. 

Temporarily wrap the crown with plastic material to prevent water leaking because It's cold now so crown rebuild can not be done until weather is right/warm enough4. 

DIYers can save an immense amount of money on kitchens and bathrooms in rental properties, while using materials that will last far longer and take a lot more abuse than what you usually find in these apartments when they're run by hands-off investors.Most cases, I am my own salvage group.
