I'm there with you, Sins, and Rog, too, who can be quite handy. We just have to settle on a central location! remember THIS OLD THREAD?. Rick's first posting is priceless.

Janie, I hear about ANGIE'S LIST every week on CarTalk on NPR. I haven't used it, but it looks like a good spot to find reliable and, maybe, honest contractors.

Good luck with it all. I feel very fortunate that Rog is able to do most of those kinds of things. For a plane ticket, round trip, I am sure I could get my son to do the plumbing for you!**bg**(He's certified for HVAC work which involves a lot of plumbing.)
