We are just getting bids on contractors- I’ve looked at all the other posts on the site- I’m curious: has anyone come across myhomeus.com ?? they are a full-service contracting, build and design company in nyc…. They seem to do everything. I am concerned about hiring a ‘random’ contractor- my husband and i are pretty novice at this stuff, and we just want to quickly re-do an apartment in a building we just bought (in Ft. Greene) so we can move in within a month or two- what we’re doing: new bathroom, new kitchen (quite small), sand\/re-do floors, paint walls, install washer-dryer, and some small other fixes (like pulling out tiles around fireplaces and replacing wood there, fixing deck MAYBE…) Does anyone have a really good, affordable, reliable contractor who they could recommend??? Or tips on how to go about this process- we’re looking at IKEA kitchens- but how to coordinate everything? How much do we have to have picked out\/figured out before getting estimates from the contractors???
