Basement development?

[Delphinus]

Hi Midknight - I didn't mean to say that a contractor would say "don't worry about the permits you don't need them", I meant that a contractor is supposed to say "don't worry about the permits, you need them, but I am supposed to take care of all that." It's sort of outlined in our city's webpages, I'm not sure how much this varies from municipality to municipality.

Scott - no you're not off base - maybe PM me his contact info and I can give him a call sometime. Sounds like there are a few people on here who know people, that's awesome. Ultimately I think what's going to happen is I'm going to DIY anyhow, just on account of timing and funds (at least I can blame myself for going over budget and not finishing on time), but I wouldn't mind a few #'s that I could call just to try to get a feel of "what it would cost to have someone else do it."
