I posted a message a few days ago about getting some work done on our house: paint the interior, replace all carpeting, refinish hardwook floor in the kitchen, and tile the bathrooms. Our house is ~2,200sf,
3BR 2.5BA.I'll need to have this work done around August/September, and all within a four-week period.
Issue is that we reside out of state, and the logistics of coordinating this is going to be tough. I'll probably only be able to manage one single one-week trip back home before August, meaning I'll need to get bids lined up to review within that one week.
Questions:
- Does anyone have any experience with general contractors that can help get the individual contractors lined up to perform this work, and coordinate the individual projects, etc. This seems like an inherently risky thing to do (entrusting an individual to look after other contractors and our best interests), but if there's a way to make this work it would make things a lot easier.
- General contractor aside, how early should I line up bids and secure the individual contractors if I want to have this work performed in August?
Appreciate any feedback.
Thanks Dave
