House: Chapter Three, Part One: Contracting with Contractors

[morgan_dhu]

We've really started to get down to the nitty gritty of renovations. We have quotes coming in from two contractors in the next few days, glaurung will be showing a third contractor around the place tomorrow, and today we had a very helpful consultation with a contractor/supplier who specialises in renovations for people with various accessibility requirements. He is too busy to do the work himself, but we will be acquiring various products, such as our bathroom fixtures, from him, and he will be glad to advise the contractor we do hire on aspects of renovating for a person with disabilities that they may be less familiar with.

And he has a website where I can browse though all sorts of roll-in pre-formed fiberglass shower stalls, shower seats so I can sit down while getting clean, high-rise low-flush toilets that will qualify for government eco-friendly rebates, all sorts of different designs of grab-bars and other cool ideas for the barrier-free home. I'm actually getting a little bit excited about this.
