Title should summarize the question. I have heard that in general it is good to have certain troublesome things done by your builder from the start, depending on factors like
- lest you have to damage your own foundation
- go to large amounts of trouble to tear things down to do them. (I'm not sure nor do I remember what kinds of changes these are).
- complexity
- cost
I am curious what the opinions are about carpet vs hardwood stairs.
Unrelatedly I don't have the reputation to create a townhome tag if it would be relevant/good to do so.
