What's this?

Yeah. Scope of a project factors in. Something like changing a headlight


In my car....i can definitly do that. I added a new power outlet in the bathroom because it was fairly easy to acces from the basement and find where thw wall was above.....but if it was above the finished part of the basement, im calling a pro.
Last summer we had a large patio installed. I coulda done it myself but it wouldnt have looked as good or been done as well as paying the pros. It cost a lot....but it looks great and they finished in 1 week (including re-soding the damaged yard) what would have taken me all summer and saved me a few thousand bucks.
