hometips.gregvan.com Termite damage estimates can be confusing, especially if the people you plan on using, don’t complete the project correctly. This is a problem that I run into every once in awhile and it creates problems for honest contractors, trying to make ends meet. Some termite damage repair companies and even some contractors will give low prices to their customers and tell them that they’re going to do more work than they actually do. When an honest contractor bids the project and plans on doing all of the work correctly, their bids could be higher than those who aren’t planning on doing everything in their estimate. Be careful comparing estimates and if you do hire someone with a lower bid, make sure that they do everything in their contract correctly and to your satisfaction.

Both the wall studs and the floor joists under the tub were completely rotten in some areas. Magic Moulding was used to create the missing tub / tile flange all the way around the tub before the wood lathes and walls were replaced. A more effective Shower Splash Guard was also made from the same Magic Moulding to help keep water off the refinished floor.
