After the owner had payed the money for the reno DVD set and attended many of her seminars.

But there must of been more to the story, also probably didnt help she payed all the tradies cash either! So she had no real come back.

They are easily installed and using the lower end of the pricing range per sqm could do the trick.Just food for thought..
