Re the yard, no dirt moving or mature plants. Just some brush removal and grass and taking down some about 30 ft of chain link. Ended up doing it over several weekends. I think they were just looking for suckers, and most people in the bay area are suckers when it comes to that kinda thing. The guy down the street from me just paid 250k for two exterior foundation walls on his Craftsman home to be replaced. I have come to the realization that I can't afford Bay area tradesmen prices after having several jobs quoted by different contractors and ending up doing them myself. Not looking forward to reroofing my house.
