I'm posting this for my mother who lives in the Brandon area. She is planning a bathroom remodel. She was about to pay the Big Box prices at Home Depot or Lowes, but I told her she needs to find a referral. I know that people in the construction trade are hurting right now. I think she'd be able to get a much better price and be able to help someone who needs the work. I am a Realtor in another state and always have "a guy for that" when people need referrals. Does anyone have any good referrals for someone to do tile work, cabinets, countertops (maybe even scrap granite), sinks, plumbing fixtures, etc... You can either post to the thread or send me a DM.

Thanks in advance for your help! There's only so much I can do from Austin.

I have just had my condo totally remodelled and used a guy who is verygood, he may need help with tiling, but I had a guy for that too.
Mine was a huge job and I reckon I saved about $25K by supervising various contractors myself instead of getting one building contractor and letting him sub it out and add his bit on top.
If you want details, email me. I have painters, tilers/floorer, drywall (brilliant), interior building, window guy, shutter and blinds person, all of whom I have used and recommended to my clients

Hi,
I may be of some help. My name is Ron and I am a "handy man" and went to trade school in Chicago for Painting and Decorating and did an Apprenticeship. I do tile, lite construction\finish carpentry, excellent wallpaper, drywall and some electrical. I have been doing this for over 18 years and have my own tools, ladders and transportation. I also do hurricane window films and window tints for home, office or commercial. Let me know what you want to get done and I can let you know what it will take to get it done. Probably best if I can come over and look at it. I live in the Wesley Chapel area off 75 and 54. Hope to talk to you soon. PM me for my number.

Great question from the poster. We should look into small business for our needs in this recession we are going thru.
