Newbie seeking contractor/rehab/reno advice in Vallejo, CA
I'm new to REI, active duty military member, looking to do my first live in rehab. My husband and I are on a low budget in the ridiculously expensive CA market. We're not very handy and don't have any renovations experience. We've been doing our research online and apps trying to price things out, but the quotes that we received from 2 contractors are already twice as expensive as our estimate.
I’m seeking recommendations on reasonable contractors in Vallejo, CA, or any advice on dealing with contractors would be greatly appreciated.
Additionally, any advice on keeping down costs on rehab/reno in general is also welcomed.
Thank you!!
