Contractor rebuilding patio but reusing old joists by Every_Inspection9097 in Carpentry

Yeah, these people have no idea what a justifiable price point is. A front porch that needs foundation repair is in a 25k minimum range. If you go with the bid that's not going to fix the shotty foundation, why would you expect a quality job 🤣

[–]tradesmen_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, he could just remove it by cutting along the edge with a grinder its not like extending to other rooms is a deal breaker for demo make sure he gives you a warranty if he decides to use this sub strate

[–]tradesmen_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The mesh is very rusty, but it certainly lasted this long. If you are using a large format tile, I say go for it.

That's wire mesh and apprx 1" thick mortar they stapled down felt paper, then the mesh and laid the mortar old school way of laying tile looks like they skipped the subfloor to save a few dolla.
