Hello everyone!
I have spoken to a couple of contractors about RLG`s estimates for repairs, but most of them scoff at the amount that these things are quoted at. Here is the full list for a 1200 sq ft single story house:
Windows - $200 each
Electric Panel Box - $1500 each
Kitchen - $300/lineal sq. ft. so around $1800 if gutted for a kitchen that spans 6 feet
Bathroom - $1000 guest and $2000 Master, gutted
Carpet - $1.50 / sq ft.
Roof - $4000 to replace
Paint - $3000 Interior and Exterior
Garage Door - $400/car
Does anyone know of a contractor who will do these quoted prices - and these amounts are for LABOUR AND MATERIALS.
Also, what about the following:
1. Furnace
2. Hot water tank
I am now doubting if we can even come close to these amounts, but if we cant, what numbers do we have to play with? I have not had to do a whole lot of repairs to my suites yet and so am inexperienced when it comes to this aspect.
Thank you so much for your responses, this board has been extremely helpful!

I have had some contractors literally offended with these rates...
