    On my flooring project, I measured myself the area that would be covered by wood floor to be 1,300 sqft.  Eric from Venetian came to the Saratoga Model and measure it (or estimated) to be 1,600 sqft including overhead.  Is the overhead really 23% of covering area?  Eric seems to just subtract...

    Recommendation on Tile job in house

    Wonder if anyone can provide some contractor recommendations for doing some Tile work in house?  The job is about 300 sqft of bathrooms.  Good idea to buy the material ourselves and hire a contractor to install it? Or find a contractor to take care of all? I've search TI for these info but...

    But this wood is 5/8", thicker than most of the 1/2"ones.  Due to its thickness, one would think it has more layers.

    I wonder if anybody here installed Provenza Old World Warm Sand or similar woods and can provide $/sqft on your job? Venetian offer glued down so it would be more expensive.  I just want to get a sense of how competitive its pricing is.

    Thanks for the info. I just got the confirmation that the wood is Provenza Old world Warm Sand, 5/8 x 7.44".  The quote is for $11.5/sqft on 1600 sqft.  Somehow Venetian adds ~300 margin to the square footage because I've measured myself and it came out to be ~1300 sqft.  300 seems to be a lot...

    I know some of you picked Venetian for your hardwood floor.  Can you give you price, square footage, and type of wood? I just got a initial quote from Eric@Venetian, he quoted ~18,000 on ~1,300 sqft for the hardwood installed in Saratoga Model 2 first floor!  I think the wood is  Garrison...

    Shutters

    I bought Saratoga plan 1.  I do opt for clearview and up/bottom control.  Daniel actually charges $1/sqft for frame build-out.  I think build-out means he needs to make the shuttle frame thicker so the blinds have room to move because most of the windows have very shallow depth into the wall. ...

    Saratoga Upgrades

    What I heard wasthat  they block access during the last month and one week before the closing date, they allow a final walk-through and then they don't allow any more access to the house.  But if we find out any problems during the walk-through, how can we check if they fix anything before the...

    Sorry to hear this. With so many bad stories about IP and my own experiences with it, I'm lowering my expectation of the "New" house.  I'm going to have many eyes to go through the walk-through. sigh.

    Thought I would continue this thread. Little more than a month away from closing.  Few mistakes/problems found already in the house. First, they put in standard countertop in our bathrooms where we updated to granite and caesarstone.  That was clear mistake that they couldn't dodge. Then...

    Shutters

    After much research on TI, I finally decided to give Shutters King a call.  Daniel, the sale manager, called back and went to my unfinished house to do the measurement the next day.  He sent me the price quote later that day.  He quoted $3,900 tax included for 252 sqft (with 10 sqft min and 3"...
