Change Order 2: Repair Flooring $650.00
After removing carpet from bedrooms 1 and 2 we learned the floors were in bad shape. We had to cut out floor, replace and install new carpet. Additionally, we had to completely demo the bathroom sub-floor. It was rotted out underneath the existing tile. Again, this is something that was totally hidden to the naked eye. The floor wasn’t soft, it didn’t bend under our feet when walking on it, and there was no active moisture detected. But when we finished demo we found rot. We installed new plywood so the new tile would be on solid sub flooring.

Change Order 3: Upgrade to Granite Counters $0.00
