I had read something like that, thanks for the confirmation. It's one reason I want a company or someone with all the right kit to do the work. I expect getting all the kit I need to do this properly myself will cost me more than having someone do it. That said, this forum will help me make sure I'm asking the right questions and if I find someone, get the right work done.

Tks again.
