"will work for frags"

but seriously, a basement start to finish in a duplex should run you more the about $1800-$2400 at least thats what I would charge back in the day. thats including priming the walls touching up nicks etc, basically having it prepped to paint. some people would try to bid in houses that I bid on, like easily 1/3 - half more then what I would charge. its ridiculous.

edit
I would also frame out bulk heads and things like that too.. lol

yes but large companies with high overhead are rediculous in pricing over the small guy-business

everyones doing awesome, little one is rolling over and holding her head up, smiling, and giggling already, (like 3-4 months earlier then normal)....starting to wonder if all the steroids in meat had anything to do with it

she's cute as hell though

<3 love this little bugger to pieces
