  1. Well, I received the other 2 estimates on Saturday.

     

    One guy said it would take 3 - 4 days to complete and it would cost $2,300 after my 20% Angie's List discount.

     

    Another guy said $600 and it would take half a day or so.

     

    I'm going to take my chances and go with the guy that said $200. I've already told him that if he does an awesome job, I will have more work for him in the future. He's coming out this Saturday morning. I'll have before and after pics in the pics & vids section, so keep an eye out for that thread.

  2. I've gotten 2 estimates so far. I still have a couple more guys coming out this Saturday to give a couple more estimates. However, I think I already know who I'm going to use, but we'll see.

     

    The first guy that came out said he would need 3 - 4 days to complete the project and it would cost $795. He said that he would need to take a scrap piece of drywall and practice on it for a while to get a consistency and texture that comes as close as possible to what's currently on the ceiling. I can't take that much time off work for this project, so I'm not going to use this guy for sure.

     

    The second guy that came out said it would take about 4 hours and cost $200. He really seemed to know what he is doing. He has been doing this work for a little over 30 years and said he has a lot of brushes and could match it up really well. He said just by looking at it, he knows exactly which brush he would use to match it up. This guy can do it on a Saturday, which is awesome since I work M-F.

     

    We'll see what the other 2 guys have to say before I make my final decision.

  3. Clay, if you decide to have someone else wash her at some point, you can take her to For Paws Grooming on Bethel. My g/f owns that place and said for $35-$40 she'd bathe, blow dry, brush out with curry brush and clean ears.
  4. I'm sorry to steal your post, but if you find someone who can do this let me know please. I currently have plain ceilings and would like to have this put on.

     

    Thanks.

     

    Will do. I already have 4 people coming out this week to give me estimates.

     

    I hate that textured ceilings since painting them is a pain and I think they look horrible.

     

    Yeah, I don't exactly care for it either, but I'm not redoing the entire house. What I have done in the bedrooms is sanded off the sharp edges and then painted. Much much easier to paint.

  5. offers are closed since it was accepted. If someone takes this away i will hunt them down and hurt them very much.

     

    Yeah, but is it a verbal offer or do you have everything in writing and signed? Cuz if it's verbal, I'm gonna put in a slightly higher offer. :bangbang:
