[quote=Anonymous]We got a bid for $249,000 to add a deck and enclose the area below. We were taking an existing window and turning it into a door and no other work on our current home. We were using wood (ok it's pricey now) instead of Trex. $250,000 for a deck and tiny room below that would be off our walk out basement. When I asked the contractor he said he has third parties do the bids for him so he wasn't familiar with how it was done. Who would work with someone like this? Apparently a lot of people do because he was super busy. Contractors are charging insane prices and speeding though jobs doing shoddy work because they want to take advantage of this crazy market. I'd skip it. when the market corrects, it will be 25% cheaper [/quote]
