    These 2 guys worked SO HARD yesterday. I was so impressed with their professionalism. The least I could do was buy them some Gatorade and give them some extra money for some beer, and a sandwich. I don't know what they get paid hourly but I know damned well it isn't enough.

    1st pic is after pressure washer 
    2nd pic after stain.
    Im not looking for perfection, so I'm happy with how it turned out.

    water heater install. that’s my goofy brother in law, who loves to pose. worst part was getting the old/new up/down the stairs. I’ve had neighbors who have paid $3000+ for a new WH. this one was $1000 and some PBR’s.

    $3600 for the last one I replaced and only 50 gals. We call it the Westchester tax. Well done.

    It is the neighborhood.  An expensive one. Imagine that job In Boca, triple the price.

    Yeah, we put some money into it. But I will recover it all when we sell. We have 2 different potential buyers showing up in the next couple days. 
    Our 1st "showing". But its not official. These are just folks we know who are looking for a house. No real estate agents involved. 
    Looks like it will be officially listed in a week.

    Looks nice @SPEEDY MCCREADY 

    How bad did they ding you on the siding and gutters? Those are 2 of my future projects.

    Left the siding as is.

    Roof and gutters were $8500
    Complete tear down on the roof, and it needed a few sheets of plywood. Not quite sure if the estimate divided roof/gutters, or if it was just a single price for all work done.

    Let's hope you do recover the cost. How is the housing market right now?

    Good luck with the sale and the move.

    Hell of a price for roof and gutters!

    Small house. But yeah, I got a good price.
    I actually got a good price on everything. Having friends who are Hvac professionals, and contractors is nice.
