Earlier this year, you showed us your hundreds of incredible home remodels. See which ones were finalists, and get ready to enter your own in the 2013 Reader Remodel Contest
We saved over $60,000 on this renovation largely by negotiating with every contractor on every job, and bargain-hunting for appliances and fixtures. Because of the size of the house, we could offer large volumes of work with the promise of glowing reviews to our friends and family when they went looking for future work.
Who did the work: I did some of the work myself, but a contractor did most of it Cost: More than $100,000
