MY HORROR STORY!! Do not get any exotic floor from LL, they use inferior grades and they 1) cupped, 2) split and 3) buckled all within 6 months of installation. The installer got stuck with the re-do (complimentary) and he wants to install domestic woods only from this outfit (to whom I am still obliged if I want this re-do complimentary). Home, humidity, were not issues-- the product we believe is milled too quickly and without time for drying and curing. So stay away from Brazilian, teak and other imports. We are going with white oak and staining it.

Homeschoolmom2, I'd been thinking that I'd be able to find the best prices on the internet. Well, we just finalized our lighting choices at the supply house the GC recommended so I went looking for internet pricing for the same fixtures. With the GC's discount, the prices we can get from the local place is far lower than any of the internet sources! For identical fixtures, it can be 1/4 to 1/3 lower. And I cannot find comparable fixtures that are any lower either, if I were willing to take fixtures that I don't like as well. Our GC uses Ferguson's - they are a chain, but I am not sure how many stores they have. See if your GC has a preferred local source and try them. Oh, and here is the nice part - the lighting specialist had a good feel for what we'd need and she was familiar with the products and the local codes. So she knew where fixtures, switches and smoke detedtors were required, for instance. It saved us a lot of researching and going back and forth with the GC and his electric sub. Same for plumbing - the plumbing specialist at Ferguson's could answer most of our questions, but when he couldn't, he knew which plumber our GC uses, called and got a quick answer. Both had suggestions for where we could save money and get good quality items, too. If you are acting as your own GC, see if local suppliers will give you the discount they give to other GCs. In our case, the GC price is 30% or more off the warehouse price! Frankly after reading stories here about late orders, bad deliveries, poor customer service, I am glad I found the lights (and plumbing fixtures) I want without having to deal with all the hassles. And since it will be on my GC's account, he or his subs can easily schedule ordering, delivery, and all those details. Anne Here is a link that might be useful: Ferguson Plumbing and Building Supply
