My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Saving a Chambers from the dump

3 years ago

I know nothing about this aside from that it‘s headed to the dump shortly and I think that’s a shame. All I have is this picture and a comment that it’s pretty clean. Been sitting in a garage for a long time. Any advice including “let it go” appreciated. Long Island.

    Please don't take it to the dump.


    1.) Contact an antique range restoration service and see how much it would cost to restore this to working order. I have had vintage ranges like this before and they are fantastic to cook on. If it is more than you want to pay, the place may even want to buy it from you or you could have them come pick it up for free and they'd find a new home for it. Here's a place in Yonkers, https://belgroveappliance.com/contact-us/


    OR


    2.) At the very least sell it for $300 on Facebook Market place or Craigslist. Someone who wants it and knows what to do with it will be thrilled. If you post it for free someone could just sell it for scrap metal and that would be a crying shame.
