Skim coating yourself


As I’ve seen noted in other posts on this forum, skim coating can be incredibly expensive. Has non-contractor out there ever tried to skim coat themselves? Is it doable? What were the results?

Value for an extra bedroom?


We recently bought a two bedroom apartment in Park Slope and while renovating, were thinking of converting it into a 3 bedroom. My question is whether the cost of creating an extra bedroom would likely be recovered on resale. Thoughts?
