[QUOTE="SuperTFrog, post: 2977369, member: 73041"] I’m a GC here in FW and normally that is a good idea to get multiple bids and may work right now. The problem is that concrete guys are so busy that they don’t want to do small jobs like this because they could send a crew to do a job 5 times as big every day. We do some remodeling and some of our trades won’t bid smaller projects because they can pick what jobs they want to do right now. For residential flatwork (patios/driveways), normally $5/sf to $6/sf is a good working turnkey number but that is if you are pouring more concrete than 400 sf. We are helping a friend out who is redoing their bathroom (we don’t do jobs that small) because they called 5 other contractors and the only one who gave them a bid took two months to send them a quote. If you want to see real sticker shock, check out the price of lumber... [/QUOTE]
