Saving Some Monies!

About 5 months ago, J and I had a contractor come and give us an estimate on a few things around the house.  Well, when we got the estimate we were a bit surprised at how expensive it was!  Holy crap...$50 to install a cat door?!?  Really?

I mean, J is very handy but we thought it may just be easier to pay someone to knock out all the small stuff, ya know?  Well, after seeing those numbers, J had to put on his handy man gloves :)

Estimate
Install Storm Door - $350
Replace Outside Light - $145
Re-mud/paint Second Bathroom - $580
Install Cat Door - $80
Replace Wax Ring - $25
Put Shelves In Closet - $250

Holy crap?  So, we ended up doing it ourselves...

Actual Costs
Storm Door - $255

Outside Light - $55
Yea, I know the paint doesn't match...that's why it's not done yet.  Some day haha


Re-mud/paint Second Bathroom - $45

Cat Door - $30

Wax Ring - $5
Yea...it's not done yet...

Shelves In Closet - $50

Tool - $268

We Saved $734!
