kastein posted:Houses are expensive House costs are ridiculous. I've spent close to $10,000 finishing my basement so far, and that's all materials cost. I've done everything myself. And that's trying to do things cheaply too. I got slate tiles as leftovers from a guy off Kijiji for $30 for about 45 sqft; my shower base and doors were bought from a wholesaler for $800, which is down from $1600 or some from HD or Lowes, and my wife and I use coupons for 20% off supplies whenever they come up. $2000 for flooring, $1000 for wood and drywall, $1000 for electrical, $4000 for the bathroom ($800 shower, $200 under floor heating, $500 plumbing, $700 vanity/sink, $200 toilet, $500 tiles for floor and shower, $250 electrical and lights, $200 decor, etc) Mind you, I've been buying nice things, and doing everything overkill, but it's still expensive.

I wish there was free dump day around here. I would take the day off work and empty my basement.
