Just standing outside waiting for ty for 13 minutes to arrive from school was brutal! For sure you should touch base with Ray and have him come see you_my appt with him is at 10:30am on Monday Nov. 18...Ray spoke of you very highly...he said y'all were great to work with...it's nice to know the whole background. I am saying we will move in March, but who knows..coudl be earlier...easier to think March and be pleasantly surprised if it is earlier!

I may be wrong on that -- he is the only one who ever came out and he delivered the product himself, too. > Some of those suppliers in our book were contracted to do the work on an upscale housing development that Nick and his partner created in New Rochelle, NY. Nick's partner, Ted, hired everyone and then when we were building our house, made recommendations based on people he liked for that, and a few other projects he'd done. Since they had gotten so much business from the development deals, they gave us a good deal but I felt like their pricing was competitive and (for the ones we used) a little lower than some people our builder gave us. > Ray is one of those guys and his pricing was good and quality of work and reliability good too. They warned me, so I'll pass this along....Ray is a big gruff-looking, tattooed guy who often wears shorts even in the winter - but he is really sweet and easy to work with! I need him to come fix a handle on one shower, so maybe I'll have him come by after he meets with you. Good reminder! > I forgot about the binder...don't worry about it! No rush. Glad some of it has been useful! > Your house is looking great -- can't wait to see the inside sometime! D
