[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who in God's green Earth is spending Forty Thousand dollars on 1 day of site prep, 3 days of framing, a half day of electrical, no days on plumbing and maybe $3000 tops for material?!

If you're telling me I can move back to the DC area and make $30,000 every six days just by building porches, count me in.[/quote]

Yeah man! Do it! You’d be a fool not to! [/quote]

If you can, do it. Yes, people are stupid here. [/quote]

PP is ignoring permitting and such which is very expensive here.  And he’s likely not insured — since working on $1M home sites carries more liability.   He’s not in DC so yeah labor, etc cheaper. [/quote]

Why are you purposefully spreading lies? A 250k addition in the city of Alexandria has permit fees in the $2000-$3000 range.  You can google Alexandria Permit Tracker and look up by address any property undergoing renovations. [/quote]

And 3k tops for materials??!? We did a DIY deck and the Trex cost alone was 8k. That didn't include the posts or railings. [/quote]

Than you either built a soccer field sized deck or youre an idiot. Trex's pricing calculator for a massive 800 sqf deck with substructure and railings comes in at 5k and that's without any negotiating involved.
