I wired a Kitchen for $900, heres my violations... - 04/18/08 02:32 AM
I wired a kitchen only for $900. I think that included the permit... My prices are not what I here to post about.
I just wanted to share my pain.
When he says 'provide access' that means, be there to move or open things.
I think #8 is a plate, that when screwed on it holds the device on aswell. So its not using the normal plate screw holes provided on the device.
#10 means, bring me, my tools and a ladder so we can open every box in the house.
... I could go on and on, I gotta stop. I think I lost a few hairs on my balding head from this guy.
.. I gotta add though... #17, add 1 hr. inspection time.. at only a mere $139 an hr. Theres about $350 in permit costs already, this new permit will be an estimated additional $350.
Detroit is strict to work in, which is great. I have absolutely no problem with that. but this right here, is more like rape. Can't a guy just wire a simple kitchen nowadays? I'm truly amazed.
And... this inspection was done last Thursday, when asked thursday about getting the violations, I was told the vialoations will be avalible and mailed out next Wensday, I got them today. So 1 week total. Hope nobody is in a hurry to get this place done... just take a week off while we wait for this guy. Do I sound bitter?
