For tougher jobs bid it out and no sense on overpaying through the steep learning curve and difficulty etc.Factor in your carrying costs - If you daily carrying cost is $100 then if you piss away 30 days that is $3000, if you can find someone to blast it out for $1000 you are really ahead of the game.I just did a remodel and I was dreading removing the tile floor because some bids [ie Home Depot] cost per sq foot was ridiculous it was more to remove the floor then to install new.

I wonder if home depot marks up materials?

We use the mechanic pin code style from Home Depot, they are like $30

I covered a light brown ceiling with one coat.For bathrooms and kitchens, consider semi-gloss instead of satin.For trim and doors, use high-gloss.I've also used Glidden exterior paint for years, with good results.In my view, the extra cost of "paint plus primer" (called DUO in Glidden's line) or Behr paint at Home Depot is not worth it.

All we have in Oklahoma (where my apartments are) and Florida (where Ilive) is Home Depot and Lowe's.

Was that legislation sponsored by Home Depot or by Lowes?

You could always go cheap and go to Home Depot parking lot for day labor, although that's probably not for the feint of heart, especially if you don't want to or not good at supervising... and speaking spanish.

Most of the things in my flip came from auctions (Home Depot Returns).

Disconnect any garden hoses from outdoor faucets.If you notice any issues, you can try heating pipes with a hair dryer to get them flowing again, or of course, give us a call!

Google, Yahoo :) Or you can go to your local office depot, I am sure they have them there.
