[quote=Anonymous]We had a major renovation - complete gut job. Discussed with the contractor whether to teardown-rebuild instead, and he warned that the cost would be at least 50% higher to do that. His comment was that when people say it's cheaper to teardown-rebuild, they're assuming teardown-rebuild prices from outside of DC, where the labor is cheaper and the finishes are less expensive. If the basic structure of the house if solid, you'd be foolish not to take advantage of that basic structure, he said.[/quote]
