Closet makeover: Custom built-in closet organizers with LEDs, Laminate flooring, and chandeliers - Complete Cost Breakdown - First major project with no woodworking experience

Tool Cost: $1,383 Materials: $1,701 Supplies/Electrician: $1,681 Total: $4,766 Complete Tools/Materials Breakdown w/ links: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1a8kzVutBmlx_vPi8eMYxsBwTRDgQh_ojC7sdRJp6ego/edit?usp=sharing My wife's closet was due for an upgrade. After consulting with a few contractors, the price quoted was $10,000+. Now that I've done the work myself, I can certainly appreciate why that cost was so high as there was a huge amount of work, learning, tools, and time needed. This project took me 3 months of on/off working. It's not perfect but I have a lot of lessons learned and I'm proud of it. I'm now planning on upgrading my office and my wife's office with built-ins, lighting, and flooring. Wish me luck! submitted by /u/JawBreaker0 [link] [comments]
