Re: Got a Bid, too much? Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subflo

I was surprised when ins adjuster said the cabinets usually were just one piece and easy to detach. If they fall apart, I'm supposed to keep the cabinet doors, so when the ins co then replaces the lower cabinets, I'll at least have matching doors lol I'll have final numbers after all this mess gets ...

Re: Steel Building Insulation under a MH?

Have no idea about insulation, but had to laugh at your porch floating away, ours did the same thing in March (Sabine). I wondered where the heck it went, we found it out in the woods, just burned it where it was lol

Re: Got a Bid, too much? Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subflo

I had a meeting with him today & asked my questions. He is going to remove the old stuff from under the walls, so I'm pleased about that. We are doing the entire house, bathrooms and all, it's all gotta go. He'll also be laying down new floor covering throughout as well. We talked about a time f...

Re: Got a Bid, too much? Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subflo

Rented a PODS to help cut down on time spent moving our stuff around. Renting an RV to stay in, on our property. Handyman-guy says it will take about 6 weeks to replace the subfloor in the entire house. Does that sound right? Not trying to be snarky at ALL but just need a realistic idea - my husband...

Re: Got a Bid, too much? Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subflo

Thanks for pointing this out to me. I didn't show him the ins co bid for that very reason, just made sure to give him a scope of work, with their measurements, but no $ amounts, so I could compare apples to apples. I also asked him for his estimate to replace the remainder of subfloor that hasn't be...

Re: Got a Bid, too much? Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subflo

I didn't even think about doing that. Lowes will deliver, I don't see why I can't do that part myself, too. There's no way 40 sheets of that plywood & adhesive & scews cost 4k. I'll tell him we'll buy materials & get his bid for labor only. Although since he already gave me a bid for lab...

Re: Got a Bid, too much? Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subflo

Yes, 1,255sf of t&g, 4x8. I know he's not over on the number of sheets, I was questioning the price of 40 sheets + case of adhesive + 5 lbs of 2" screws. The most expensive t&g 3/4" here is less than $30/sheet. $30 x 40 sheets is $1,200, plus another couple hundred max for adhesive...

Re: Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subfloor

And that's just materials, labor was quoted separaretly. I'm just not seeing the price of 40 sheets of t&g 3/4" plywood and case of adhesive & screws adding up to 4k using my local lowes website, anyone have any thoughts? Am I looking at the wrong thing?

Re: Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subfloor

Finally got a contractor out here & just got his bid. Not sure about his numbers, though. His bid states 40 sheets of 3/4" plywood, 1 case of subflooring adhesive, 5 lb of primeguard 2" screws, Material cost =$4,000?

Got a Bid, too much? Flood Damage, Replace Entire Subfloor

Hi, folks! Never thought I'd have to actually post on this great forum 6 yrs ago when I found it, but we have significant damage due to the Sabine River flood in southeast Tx last March. Lots of issues, pretty overwhelming so just trying to take one thing at a time. We have a 2002 fleetwood carriage...
