The hands on and oversight you will be providing as a homeowner is going to add more to your busy schedule. But, until you find a contractor that takes pride in the trades you're basically just dealing with day labor looking for the whistle to blow and get that paycheck for a day completed and not so much for a job well done.
The Residential Build Calculator is not matching Lumber Futures and Market speculation in the building industry. Use the calculator as a starting point for your bid processes but not as a final cost estimate with the influences we are seeing from Wall Street.
Now and Future
Bring together in a group your skilled trades all while keeping your independence. With labor brokers collecting the jobs because they are able to find vast pools of low cost labor you as an independent contractor have very few labor pool options. By working with others like yourself that issue is no longer an issue.
Join TruckAndTools.Com and get into the loop with others like you. It can't hurt finding others with trucks and tools that are willing to work as a group n some projects that need more than just one skilled hammer.
Finding ways to help by posting your skills through video a very powerful tool.
Reach out to me via the contact page and post your skills when you have a minutes so those that use generic searches on Bing and Google can find you.
