Do it yourself? Is it time to hire a professional?

     The real Smoothstar will be enjoying a much deserved week long beach retreat in the month of August.  I like others wanted to write some entries here for the promise of some fine quality tube socks knowing with six to eight weeks wait for delivery they would arrive just in time for the first winter snows.

     It is good to get paid for your efforts, but at home when you look at the insurmountable task of jackhammering out a floor and the mental stresses it puts on your loved ones. You start to think, HEY, I'm not getting paid for this, I don't have a permit, and do I really know how to modify the back hall and make it into a bathroom? So you tear into the project anyway, yeah you do, because you are that kind of a guy. and somewhere around mid day... The noise of the jackhammer is making you crazy, so you go down into the basement to play your drums. You have a little crik in your neck so you smoke a little and have a beer or six, but the whiskey bottle is calling you, and then... The door opens and your wife sees the mess, NO, not the debris in the back hall and the dust all over everything in her clean kitchen...YOU!

    A first class professional licensed contractor like Smoothstar right from the start, might just save you money and with Smoothstar you also get a first class tile job. Grief counselors, and psychiatric professionals as your own project progresses might cost you twice what you would have paid to get it done right. All you really get from the shrink is a little brown bottle of prescription medication. Well either way you go, it's a lot cheaper than a divorce attorney.
