I live in Amarillo, TX-- the closest larger city is ABQ, NM. I want to cut an outside door where an existing window is now. The door will exit my bedroom and enter onto a flat roof where I want to build a deck. Can any of you give me a guestimate on how much it would cost to cut the door, rip out the window, frame the door, install a door (excluding the price of the door), and repairing any damaged drywall. I will paint the drywall, and hang the door.

Also, is there anything I need to know to make this job less expensive? For example, would a certain sized door, or type of door make it less expensive?

I've been looking around and I can't seem to find a cheap basic router. I have a simple project at home where I want to make a decorative border. I can find cheap drills and most other power equipment but every router I find is over $100. Where should I look? Thank you.

Something that would cover things like symmetry, lighting, balance, color, texture -- things like that. I have no talent, but a lot of interest in learning interior design. I would like to take a course through the community college, but it's not an option for me right now. Thank you.

Which is better for leak proofing. maintenace and easy installation? Shower Pan or Tiled Floor

I have seen some beautiful tile floors on the internet but I wonder about the durability of the grout to withstand twice daily showers. I plan on living in the home for many years and would hate to have water or termite problems. This is for a 2nd floor shower.

I bought a queen size bed this morning. The store I bought it in (Matress Direct) had headboards but they were all fancy, decorative models for 200 or more dollars. Isn't there somewhere I can go to get a simple headboard for 50 to 60 dollars. I live in Las Vegas.
