Remember when people could afford to have experts do that kind of stuff?
Ugh, now all I can afford is "not me" to install them. Not experts that's for sure.
(this is not a joke, not really).
Lately it seems like there's two tiers with the first being guy who watched a video on youtube and the second being true expert but with a huge chasm of price differential and next to nothing in between.
And then there's you did everything you possibly could yourself and you did your best and saved tons of money, but now you actually do need to pay someone to do the thing you don't trust yourself to do so you saved money just for the thing, but no contractor will agree to come do the thing because demand is high and they would rather do commercial projects. So yeah... You can't even pay a pro and you're just fucked 🤷
