Flyover
Trying not to screw things up worse
To get it out of the way: I understand that perfect estimates cannot be given based on descriptions and photographs. I'm not looking for anything legally binding, ha!
But hopefully if anyone here is experienced...
I'm looking for "as best as you can reckon" estimates for the cost to professionally repair the following issues with a house, to help figure out how much to revise the initial offer I made prior to inspection. I might not necessarily ask that the full cost of all these repairs be covered. It depends what I ultimately determine is "reasonable".
And obviously, I will triangulate estimates given here with estimates I get from local contractors and handimen I've reached out to (but haven't heard back from yet).
1. Install handrail along staircase:
2. Secure a few strips of loose vinyl siding to the wall of the house:
3. Add grading around house foundation where there is currently negative grading:
4. Repair brick chimney:
5. Vent bathroom exhaust through exterior (currently terminates in attic)
6. Add weatherstripping to bottom of garage door:
7. Add a small concrete curb to interior of garage near door to help keep out water
8. Switch polarity of kitchen power outlet (currently reversed)
9. Repair trim/fascia/soffits:
