new construction hardwood + tile install costs
Comments (5)10-100K You have to do a lot more homework than that to narrow the guesses down. 10K would be on the low end for both with no decorative details done at all in the tile. Plain white tile baths and cheap engineered glued to slab. 100K would be multiple nice porcelain or natural stones done with listellos and decos and/or something other than a basic pattern and a good quality engineered or solid hard wood floor in an exotic with a premium finish. Probably no carpet anywhere. But if there is carpet, a decent but not super high end wool....See Morenew hvac install new construction
Comments (8)Really depends on the construction and that is where the manual J comes in. You have some real heat gains with a 2 story & lots of glass. It would be beneficial to have a local do a heatload for you. A lot less money than having the wrong size unit and unhappy wife for years to come. With that big sqft split you may consider two systems too. If you don't want to go that route it is usually 400 sqft per ton here in s fla. See if there is a local Johnstone Supply in the area, if you have one that does not lock out non-tradesman you should find what you need. Besides Goodman A/C is made in Tx. Good luck Been more than a few years since I did installs but a cheap ductulator (slide rule for duct sizing)will give you the duct size. Use .08 for the multiplier on the ductulator for quiet ducts. Return air grilles are 144 sqin per ton less they get noisy....See MoreCost of brick/stone installation in new construction
Comments (3)Brick installation is priced by the unit. Builder prices--iow for minimum one home--range from $1-1.25 ++for CSR size, plus mortar, sand and ties. There are a number of "standard" sizes in Canada; try going for a large size to save bucks and the mason will simply charge you more per unit. And, of course, you can also import US product with a different set of sizes. Stonesetting is priced by the sq. ft. and ranges from $5-$30++ There are also important variables such as the ease of access. Can the mason use a brickloader or will everything have to be wheelbarrowed in? How easy is it to set up scaffolds? How high will the scaffolds be? Is this a summer or winter build? Concrete or clay bricks? How much fenestration? Stone or brick sills? Runningbond or something more imaginative? How many corners? Any mason who gives you a ballpark estimate without knowing those details has you pegged for a neophyte and will charge accordingly. (FWIW, I've been building in Toronto since the '80s.)

Comments (23)A new construction window does not always mean more glass. It depends on window type and size and manufacturer. When we replaced our old leaky Aluminum windows with AL clad, wood interior windows (Marvin Ultimate), we ended up losing about 6+ inches of glass. The old aluminum had skinny sash while the new ones have large wood pieces inside. The large wood pieces did not affect the views as we feared but they certainly did not yield more glass. There are several reasons to stay with replacement even when changing siding and trim. We lived through this in our previous house. When trim around the windows is expensive to replace and already matches the house trim. WHen original frame is sound and we are not changing window size. When replacement window is sufficiently better than old window. When project cost of new construction is way higher than replacement windows. WE ended up using replacement windows for our previous home. For our current house, the trim was bad and needed replacement anyway, the framing surrounding the windows had visible water damage and there is no replacement for those poor quality Aluminum windows. The end result was new construction windows....See MoreJoseph Corlett, LLC
