The plan all along has been to do the drywall myself and then hire someone for a couple hundred dollars to come in to do the muddin and tapin. After striking out with several of my buddies that know how to do this type of work really well, I started calling some companies that specialize in it. The first one that called me back said that the price was going to be around $2,000. Needless to say we were a little shell shocked.
I kept calling some places and I found someone that would do it for $900.00. We weren't exactly excited about the price but it was either that or I could do it myself and have it look like complete doo doo. So they are coming out tomorrow to start the mudding and taping. We are hoping they will get it done by the middle of next week so we can paint it before we leave to drive to my sister's house.
i am already amazed at the transformation just with adding the drywall. Hopefully I will have some pictures for you before we leave next week.
stay tuned....

I'm curious as to how much it would have cost to just have them do the whole job...taking into account the materials you had to purchase/rent anyway.
....this coming from someone who just laid 2 pallets of sod herself...in the rain.
