Ceramic tiles - what to do?
I have 21 boxes of high end imported tile. Does anyone know of a company willing to take it off of my hands at a reduced cost? They're selling for $43.00 a sq ft. as opposed to the original $58.00 sq ft. I've placed an ad here and on craig's list any other suggestions?
Thanks!

seeking someone to remove mantel
Does anyone know of a person who can carefully remove a wood and tile mantel from my house?
I know it's sacrilege, but I don't care for the style and I'd rather it be enjoyed by someone who likes this sort of thing.

Cast iron replacement
I'm doing some minor repair of some cast iron elements on a building in Union Square. I heard about a warehouse somewhere in Bayridge (60's perhaps} that has a lot of cast iron pieces for sale. Anybody know about it?
