Re: I am DESPERATE
you can try Service Magic.com. We have used this service a couple of times and we are in the process of using them again for another project. It's free to sign up for this service. You get three contractors that the service picks for you. Of course you need to double check on these contractors before you hire them and make sure they have insurance & are licensed. GL! Sorry I don't know anyone personally.
ETA: if you have any questions, let me know.

She can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure she is looking for an experiencd person to donate their time to finish the room for their medically fragile daughter.
I wish I knew someone or even wish I could do it myself for you

Re: I am DESPERATE
Im not sure what level of expertise is needed to finish but I am willing to pay a fare price for the work that still needs to get done that my husband cannot do, my husband is willing to help also, he just cant do it alone

Have you tried contacting a company like Allure - who donate their time and services for the Extreme Home Makeover shows? How about contacting a vendor on this site?

Re: I am DESPERATE
My dad has done these kinds of repairs/projects around our house as I grew up, I will ask him if he has the time off to help you out and let you know!! Also if you just need an extra hand my fiancee and I are off for the summer starting next week and would be more than happy to help some fellow St. John's alums out We're not experts by any means but would be happy to help. Will let you know when I talk to my dad if he can help!
